Calling @ra-uk.org members! Voting has just opened in the election for new council members. I'm running for re-election and would be grateful for your vote!

Excited to be part of this again this year @ra-uk.org and @octopus.energy Save the date!

The countdown is on! @ra-uk.org #RAUK26 in Bristol in May! Ticket sales opening soon!

Isn't he just!! Made me run up a big hill. It's fairly flat where I live, so it was less fun. But @drrobbieerskine.bsky.social excellent company made it wonderful

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 04/11/2025

I took no photos! But caught up with fellow speakers & board members @mariapazsebastian.bsky.social @athmathottungal.bsky.social I went running around Sheffield with @drrobbieerskine.bsky.social (had to get him to slow down, definitely no sweaty selfies!)

On my way home after a lovely 2 days at the BSOA meeting in Sheffiled. Lots of fantastic CPD for all anaesthetists that do orthopedic cases. Fantastic to represent @ra-uk.org! BSOA is a small society doing big things - looking forward to see what they do for their 2026 Oxford meeting!

Great to see this published Congratulations to the rest of the author team, and a massive thanks to our multidisciplinary expert panel!

True. If I'm injecting something that can be sore (like propofol), I'll say it might feel strange/tingly/weird, but it'll be short-lived

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 27/07/2025

I just say what I'm going to do; "small injection of local anaesthetic now". That way the patient can decide how much it hurts (or not), rather than me giving them a pain prompt

Thanks for making it happen @maffygirl.medsky.social! Friendly exchange of ideas, I'm learning something every time!

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 12/07/2025

I used to, then I moved to placing amps & labelled syringes in a tray, ready to quickly draw if needed. My place stocks prefilled atropine, ephedrine, metaraminol. They go into a tray, add a glyco amp and a syringe.... (& check there's sux & in the fridge). The move to prefilled was environmental

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 05/07/2025

I have recently refused to work until appropriate sized scrubs found. I got sick of exposing myself when having to wear over large sizes. Particularly the elasticated trousers that were falling down constantly. (Admittedly, I sat in my outdoor clothes in the coffee room to stage my protest)

041

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 04/07/2025

Untucked- otherwise I can't use the pockets on the top. (Although, secretly, as I really get cold, I often have a tucked in top on underneath to try and keep warm!)

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 25/06/2025

Leakage was more like 95% with us. Manifolds now decommissioned at most of the hospitals in our health board. Portable cylinders available to plug into the back of the machine if needed

Have you just accidentally given away the identity of a special guest?! Must catch up, ashamed to admit that I'm a few episodes behind on #BILIH 🫣

121

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 31/05/2025

Why is it that I'm pretty sure that I know which hospital?! (I still visit there for a list once a month - block list of course!)

010

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 31/05/2025

I've seen some of @athmathottungal.bsky.social work where she's using for neuromodulation.... very clever stuff. One day I'll remember to pin her down on the specifics and give this largely ignored bit of kit a new lease of life

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 31/05/2025

100% sterile gel if you're planning on puncturing the skin... (Agreed that sterile water/saline will also work as acoustic coupling agent!)

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 31/05/2025

Not all of us! My kids are bilingual and speak English & Cymraeg fluently! There are a load of regional accents yn Gymru, much like in other parts of the world.... Come visit, you might like it 😉

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 31/05/2025

Looks like you need to venture further West next time you're in the UK? Perhaps visit Wales when you pop over for #RAUK26 in Bristol?!

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 14/05/2025

Safe travels! I hope your @oaa-anaes.bsky.social Bruce Scott Lecturer is as awesome as you were as ours @ra-uk.org!!

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 24/04/2025

I do most of mine awake, as they are block only cases. Will block kids asleep as routine. Probs, in my hands as experienced blocker, risk of neural injury is v low awake or asleep. In a less experienced pair of hands, the confidence of no paresthesia/pain during block is useful!

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 17/03/2025

Sorry to hear this Bob. Hope you've turned a corner and things continue to improve

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 06/03/2025

It's tomorrow!! Please join us....

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 28/02/2025

Link now available for this FREE (thanks @octopus.energy ) webinar A group of awesome women speaking ahead of #IWD2025 I can't wait!

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 15/02/2025

Diolch yn fawr iawn! (Thanks very much!)

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 15/02/2025

There must be a rep, but I don't know who! I have left my details with a rep at a conference, but no onward contact!

100

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 15/02/2025

I really want a play with these! If there's a pajunk rep reading this- please get in touch as I'd love to trial a few on my foot & ankle list

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 14/02/2025

Looking forward to co-chairing this one with you too @manibahra.bsky.social More details to follow!! #IWD2025

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 13/02/2025

It's not really a thing where I work. We still can use epidurals on our wards, so lots of cases get that. Most general & urology surgeons put in rectus sheath catheters if epidural not used.

020

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 12/02/2025

Looks like this will be the start of the #RAUK25 faculty profile mega thread from @ra-uk.org Keep on eye out for our fabulous speakers. Early bird rate still available, and a couple more days for associate faculty applications

021

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 12/02/2025

Get well soon Bob! Hope you've turned a corner and things get easier from here.

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 08/02/2025

I'm still finding my feet on here! Forgot to add #RASky tag first time around!

020

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 08/02/2025

Pleased to report the Android version is now running too! #planA is free for all (but you will need to register) Everything unlocks with @ra-uk.org membership! #RASKY

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 08/02/2025

Looking forward to this! More details to follow... #IWD2025

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 31/01/2025

I'm very excited to see this launch! As an android user I've a few more days to wait, but what I've seen of the @ra-uk.org app it looks fantastic. Full access to ALL RAUK members, free access to Plan A content for non members #RASky

051

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 30/01/2025

It was great fun to be involved in this yesterday! Thanks @assocanaes.bsky.social for inviting me to talk and @gehealthcare.bsky.social for making it free! Always learning something new (or relearning something old in a better way!)

Title slide 'blocks on the trunk, keys to success'

My intro slide for the Erector Spinae Plane block - with a picture of a jar of marmite and the quote "are you a lover or a hater?"

My intro slide for rectus sheath blocks, featuring the most famous set of abs/6 pack I know - Lego Batman!

A slide full of QR codes and the advert for RAUK25 (tickets available now at ra-ukmeetings.com), other QR codes for the papers I referenced, the images I used and some links to awesome training materials from Dr's Amit Pawa, Jeff Gadsden and Ki Jinn Chinn

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 23/01/2025

When you can't find the images you want when preparing a presentation, so end up drawing your own! (Procrastination level = high) I bet @drnavbahal.bsky.social isn't having this trouble! See you on Wednesday for the @assocanaes.bsky.social webinar! #RAsky #AnaesSky

My hand drawn image of a spinal nerve at the thoracic level, nerve is yellow, muscle brown, bone & plurea are grey.

I've watched the version on @ra-uk.org site (yes - also emotional on the second viewing after watching it live!) However if you weren't there to see it in person, or haven't signed up for post event access to all of #RAUK24 (why not - there's all 2 days of talks recorded), this is a close 3rd!

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 25/11/2024

I was jennythatcanblock on Twitter.... I wanted to be a bit anon - partly as I didn't think I'd have anything much interesting to say! Now I figure being part of @ra-uk.org board, and with some publication behind me, anon is no longer an option!

Dr Jenny Ferry @jennyferry.bsky.social · 25/11/2024

Thanks - I'm still learning here! I couldn't pick up @rjharrison79.bsky.social @elboghdadly.bsky.social or @jonowomack.bsky.social initially & I totally forgot the #RASky..... Must try harder with my next post! Sorry team!
