New RCT: Avoiding A-line in shock didn't affect mortality (trend towards *reduction*) & decreased line complications They avoided A-lines despite patients requiring pretty substantial doses of vasopressors Very #zentensivist Don't need to rush to an A-line www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.... #EMIMCC

Interesting, I’d have to try this. How about rapid onset bradycardia? With an infusion I feel like I have time left to act, ie give atropine.

Do you happen to know if the reference values for DOACs actually are linked to bleeding outcomes? It would be useful to have some sort of cut off when it comes to neuraxial anesthesia, which doesn’t necessarily need to be in the upper range of the reference value.

Do you bolus the 5 mcg/kg? Or infused slowly over xxx minutes?

Nederland sluttet met lotteri fom 2010 og innførte en ny søknadsprosess basert på «motivasjon, egnethet og erfaring». De siste årene har man derimot innsett at også dette systemet har sine svakheter og ikke fører til «bedre leger». Lotteri er nå igjen mulig etter en lovendring.

Would it be okay to ask for some tips on the adult inhalational induction? I’m part of this generation that has pretty much only done it in peds, so it feels a bit uneasy to do it with adults.

Continuous pressure, and after engaging ligamentum flavum aiming to only push the needle by applying force with my thumb on the syringe/plunger. The sudden loss of resistance usually makes the needle stop because any remaining force is transferred to the saline column in the syringe.

It’s baffling to me that this hasn’t been studied in humans before in this way, considering how long we’ve known about the metabolic switch to lactate in shock states.

Does using 12 leads on a monitor remove some of the filtering then?

Sjoerd van den Berg @fromthemountain.bsky.social · 18/01/2025
Would you say that one should therefore by cautious using printouts of monitor ECGs? Regardless of them being 3, 5 or 12 lead for examples. Nurses always look at me slightly frustrated when I request a “classic 12 lead” instead of just a printout from the monitor.

Me neither, as mentioned it’s most relevant in infants. It’s called Slice Thickness artifact. Nicely explained over here on Baby Blocks www.baby-blocks.com/vascular-acc...

In-plane technique is prone to imaging artifacts where the needle tip might appear in the lumen but it’s actually outside. This effect is more pronounced the smaller the vessel.
