Salman Naeem Athmaja Thottungal Really interesting! Lots of questions but any good resources you can recommend to look at that can be applied to the ED population?

ECMO types, what do patients experience if ECMO established while awake? Line insertion aside, is it an unpleasant experience?

Ketamine gtt’s for the LOSS. Nice DB, RCT showing no benefit in severely injured pts. Actually stopped early for futility. Although, I must say I haven’t seen PCA’s used in our pts in 20 years… Journal of Trauma and Acute Care Surgery journals.lww.com/jtrauma/fullte…

This is great to see - too often are patients starved for too long before their procedures.

Sending a letter by second class post and saying that you will discharge the patient if you don't hear from them within 7 days is just cutting waiting lists by stealth. It's not ok and it makes my blood boil

Juliet Tango Hysteroscopy Action Gail Busby Stephanie O'Donohue Patient Safety Commissioner RoyalCollegeObsGyn Getting It Right First Time (GIRFT) Mary-Ann Fox Hi Juliet. Here it is standard to have hysteroscopy in an operating theatre with GA. Difficult to tell which patients will have short procedures and which will have long. Most women are so tired with running their lives, they are grateful to have a ‘sleep’. We give them extra TLC

The Natasha Bedingfield set at #radio1bigweekend was fab 👏 👏 Could easily have been worthy of being the headline act. Have a listen! bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…
