Dame Elaine Inglesby-Burke DL I think its really difficult in very big organisations but keep asking! Also a big red flag is sickness and turnover data but boards rarely look at it as safety data

It takes >3-4 weeks of steroids (@ any dose >5 mg pred/d) to pose risk of adrenal insufficiency – Hence, Endocrine Society Guideline says short-term glucocorticoid therapy of <3-4 wks, irrespective of dose, DOES NOT require GC tapering buff.ly/4gggMq6

The leading causes of perinatal trauma (psychological). Many of these factors may be present in women who access the ambulance service. How can we help reduce the impact of these factors as health professionals responding to a 999 call? #prehospmatneo

If you need a little boost this Wednesday morning, I just came across a study that showed dogs cry tears of joy when they're reunited with their owners. cell.com/current-biolog…

The yellow shows innervation of the anterior branch of the medial cutaneous nerve...🤯 What we thought was saphenous. In the world of regional anesthesia and pain medicine, frequently something I think I know well, changes. The more I learn, the more I realize I don’t know much.

There is something wonderful and comforting about knowing that the new Maori Queen is so young, half my age in fact, and for the first time in my life, I expect the reigning monarch to outlive me. Power to the young people. I wish her a long and successful life.

Important! INR measures the function of a limited number of *some* clotting fibrinogen, II, VII, IX, X NOT anticoagulants like protein C and S That's how patients with cirrhosis can have high INR but still be hypercoagulable
