Gripping essay from Louise Aronson nejm.org/doi/full/10.10… You put one toe on the aggressive care escalator and off you go, powerless to stop it (my tweet length summary, read the whole essay). Shouldn't be this way. #hapc #meded #geriatrics UCSF Geriatrics

#animeassasin. You got that right

When I heard about “pretotyping” I didn’t know what it meant. We document it as an important step in our JAGS article doi.org/10.1111/jgs.19… Alberto Savoia is critical in idea implementation!
