I’ve finished crying about this and now I’m just full of rage. How can you do this MRCPUK Examinations? I don’t understand. What do you mean your auditing processes found an error? 1.5 years later?! A refund and a free booking for a resit is not enough. Show us what went wrong 😩 (n/?)

PICU colleagues, could I please ask for your help yet again - a 3-5 minute survey on how we use evidence in PICU imperial.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_b8… and how we can improve our provision of evidence-based care! Thank you so much 📚😀 Prof P Ramnarayan (Ram) Sarah E Seaton 🏳️‍🌈

In a pediatric population in Australia, more peripheral intravenous catheters were successfully inserted on first attempt across all risk categories when ultrasound guidance was used compared with standard technique. ja.ma/4iR2Cfp @TriciaVams

Saw this in the BMj obituaries today. Not someone I have met but what an amazing and inspirational story. Achieved so much despite much adversity. Truly remarkable. RIP Allison.

Our ESPNIC mapping project is now live on the ESPNIC website. How many PICUs are there in Europe? We are trying to find out! To see if your unit has responded, and to respond, go here: espnic.eu/espnic-mapping… #PedsICU

In critically ill patients, neither dexmedetomidine nor clonidine was superior to propofol in reducing time to successful extubation. #ATS2025 ja.ma/3SFgz54

In my view UKFPO stats on "X% got their first choice" are false. The new system encourages applicants to put non-competitive deaneries (that may not be their 'true' first choice) first, to avoid worse outcomes. I hope someone studies what % get their true first choice

I have written for Team DFTB about implementation science in paediatric intensive care. To improve the care we give the sickest children, we need to mobilise knowledge to the bedside. If you are interested, get in touch! IMPACT Collaborative dontforgetthebubbles.com/implementation…
