A late thanks to Dr. Nadine Lam and Dr. George Wang (R3) for reviewing renal physiology and management of perioperative renal dysfunction. Check out a great review by Gumbert et al in Anesthesiology pubs.asahq.org/anesthesiology…

Given the lack of strong evidence for traditional high dose regimens of perioperative stress dose steroids, have you changed your practice? If exogenous steroids primarily cause glucocorticoid deficiency is Dexamethasone enough? ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P… pubs.asahq.org/anesthesiology…

We are aware of the technical issue in CaRMS Online and our IT staff are currently looking into this. We will continue to share updates here as we have them.

Best wishes to all the class of 2021 medical students submitting their CaRMS applications. This is an exciting time and the start of a journey. Trust your instincts. #CaRMS2021

Thanks to Dr. Andrew Walker for a great review of ultrasound physics. The assumptions of ultrasound are violated in almost every clinical situation, and it's important to understand the artifacts created. We'll now be signing up for your remediation grade 12 physics class :)

Drs Brown & Janssen discussed techniques to prevent nerve injury during peripheral nerve block. Benefits of ultrasound in reducing vascular injury, pneumothorax and block success seem clear. Definitive reduction of nerve injury remains more elusive. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26695877
