@WessexCapital @AlexfromBabylon Block 2 satellites already carry significant on-board processing: the custom AST5000 ASIC delivers up to 10 GHz of processing bandwidth per satellite. This is primarily for beamforming, spectrum handling, etc, but the architecture is modular enough to support additional compute.

@friedshrimpoboy @spacanpanman On the earnings call, 10 launches booked through early next year.

@Oyinkansol73072 @Chase I understand fraud prevention. But there is a point where “security” starts to feel like profiling, suspicion, and unequal treatment.

Customers should not have to justify why they want access to their own money.

[Uche Ofoma, MD @UcheDoc]

@Oyinkansol73072 This happened to me with @Chase. I tried to transfer a large sum of my own money to another bank through online banking, and they would not allow it unless I told them what I planned to use the money for.

[Uche Ofoma, MD @UcheDoc]

@Oyinkansol73072 @Chase Even after I went to a local branch, presented my ID, and deposited additional funds into my account, they still refused to process the transfer — after accepting my deposit. 😞

Working with @kejoynt @nicholas_mohr @AllanWalkey We evaluated the relationship between hospital capability and sepsis mortality using a novel hospital capability index. @WUSTL_AnesRsrch @WUICTS

Continuing our work to understand how Tele-ICU can best impact in-hospital cardiac arrest outcomes. @kejoynt @saketgirotra @medtmaddox

[AHA Science @AHAScience]

GWTG-Resus data findings show no difference in IHCA survival outcomes in hospitals with Telemedicine Critical Care (TCC). Further research should investigate utility of TCC for IHCA prevention.

Our intervention mimicked a pragmatic deployment of telemedicine intensivist support for Code Blue teams, and findings are consistent with a new observational analysis by the @AHA_Research #GetWiththeGuidelines team led by @UcheDoc https://t.co/i9WfAeKSqX

[Ithan Peltan, MD, MSc @ipeltan]

Intensivists (when involved) served as a consultant to the code leader. We trained our resuscitation "copilots" on a structured strategy for aiding resuscitation, and provided simple, pragmatic just-in-time introduction for on-site resuscitation teams

[Ithan Peltan, MD, MSc @ipeltan]

Since highly experienced Code Blue team members and leaders are a fairly scarce resource, we wondered if telemedicine could *usefully* facilitate expert consultation for Code Blue teams

[Ithan Peltan, MD, MSc @ipeltan]

Clinicians, nurses & others who serve on resuscitation teams outside the ICU often worry about making errors or lack confidence in their assigned role. https://t.co/rqOvAWpDno

[Ithan Peltan, MD, MSc @ipeltan]

Responding to a Code Blue is stressful and scary, even for experienced clinicians. I still get a jolt when a pager goes off with the tone we used for the @mghmedres code pagers

[Ithan Peltan, MD, MSc @ipeltan]

[Almost] out in print @accpchest: our multihospital RCT found live telemedicine consultation by an ICU physician did not improve CPR quality or ACLS protocol adherence during "mock codes," but did help resuscitation teams identify the etiology of the simulated cardiac arrest

@reborn2042 Going by that thinking, Joe Biden would not have been Barrack Obama’s VP in 2008.

@_plyons @StephptaylorCLT @_plyons, study suggested by @StephptaylorCLT is a serial cross-sectional study. So it does show trends over time, stratified by CAH status. So should give you some insight I guess.
