US politicians should remember this graph whenever they mention healthcare. The US seems in many ways to be approaching failed state territory....

Alex Pretti was an American hero. He saved lives. He protected people. He cared deeply about his community, unlike the murderous thugs who killed him. The very last thing he did was try to help a woman who had been pepper-sprayed and violently shoved to the ground by ICE. 1/

Denmark close to wiping out leading cancer-causing HPV strains after vaccine roll-out

A nationwide study suggests infections with human papillomavirus (HPV) types 16 and 18 have been virtually eliminated since vaccination began in 2008 – protecting even unvaccinated women.

Does anyything that sedates a patient actually prevent delirium, or are we simply masking symptoms of hyperactive delirium?

Australians putting up our hands re anaphylaxis with rocuronium. We see in multiple times a year just at my institution. We are all absolute experts at diagnosis and management. I have assisted in at least 6 in the past 10 years. The rapid administration of adrenaline saves lives.

As right-wing oligarchs were buying up mainstream and social media, the mistake everyone else made was thinking that these purchases were based on a normal assessment of value. Remember when Elon Musk “overpayed” for Twitter? They understood that controlling the message and narrative is priceless.

We did an editorial for anesthesia on the new meta analysis on the incidence and outcome of non-operative hip fracture management. Surgery should often be a part of the palliative pathway.

I need you to understand that if you heard a song you liked in the 80s, you couldn’t Shazam it. You couldn’t Google the lyrics. You had to sing it to the guy at Tower Records.

Almost all Nobel Prizes are awarded for work that is exploratory, or absolutely basic science with no obvious commercial or medical benefit. You cannot predict where advancements come from, so you have to invest in science and scientists. Targeted (corporate) science investment will never do this.

What should we call it when the number of meta-analyses start exceeding the number of RCTs performed? Meta-analytic incontinence? Meta-analytic diarrhea? (Since these are mostly 💩) Meta-analytic overflow Any other suggestions? @mikejohansenmd.medsky.social #EpiSky #MedSky

Great editorial by Joshi in the EJA, recounting the current litterature on perioperative glucocorticoids. It gives an overview of the line of recent research from our group, with the works of Nielsen and Springborg on high-pain responders as well as Cihoric´s on emergency laparotomy. #AnSky #SurgSky

I agree - there is no almost no difference between regular and RSI - especialy when you just use prop/remi for both without NMB in most cases.

I agree - just put the tube in: "After half a century of circular arguments regarding how RSI should be performed, and the benefits and harms of each element, this meaningless term should be abandoned." associationofanaesthetists-publications.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.... #Ansky

This is important, patients often have a lot of medication allergies listed for reasons that do not stand scrutiny, potentially harming them when they need the drugs.
