April’s #FMIGS topic is #surgery in special populations! Our @carleob_gyn team chose #patients w/ #diabetes. We are featuring Nancy Ringel, MD, MS, FACOG's JMIG article using HbA1c to assess surgical risk for #hysterectomies. jmig.org/article/S1553-… #obgyntwitter #jmigjc #gyntwitter #MIGS

Do you or does your institution reschedule elective #hysterectomies if A1c is above a certain threshold? What is it that threshold? Join the convo! JMIG #obgyntwitter #jmigjc #gyntwitter #MIGS Nancy Ringel, MD, MS, FACOG Megan Hutchcraft MD Abhi Tangada Bhargavi Dhanireddy

In the #diabetes population, pre-op A1c of 9+ is associated with the HIGHEST rate of #hysterectomy complications, including pneumonia, surgical site infections, and PE. JMIG #obgyntwitter #jmigjc #gyntwitter #MIGS Nancy Ringel, MD, MS, FACOG Megan Hutchcraft MD Abhi Tangada Bhargavi Dhanireddy

I know patients have scanxiety but so do oncologists. Every time I open a new scan report of a patient on surveillance, I hold my breath and leap with joy when I read “no findings of locally recurrent or metastatic disease”.

We couldn’t be happier to showcase #superstar McGovern Med School #medstudent Noel Higgason’s incredible work 🤔 just need to figure out how to persuade her to join us in #GynOnc @GynOncJnls SGO

The power of #community in encouraging patients to compete #cancer #prevention #screenings is clear! Read this great @GynOncJnls work by Noel Higgason McGovern Med School #gynonc #cervicalcancer

The best place to relax is near water. After just 2 minutes of viewing water outdoors, blood pressure and heart rate drop. It's more calming to look at a lake, pool, or stream than trees or grass. Beaches are popular for a reason. Wider bodies of water bring more tranquility.

Looks like great opportunity for #ovariancancer #survivors! #gyncsm National Cancer Institute
