Mic drop study 👀 sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Statement from Faculty of Intensive Care Medicine on ACCPs (support, important part of the workforce) and AA/PAs (no role in ICU & not appropriate to train as ACCPs). Clear, and important restatement of need to ensure training for intensivists in training ficm.ac.uk/new-faqs-on-ac…

From a safety management system perspective this rings alarms. The lowest allowable standard defines the level of quality and performance you can reasonably expect from the workforce in question. As a BA (Hons) holder myself, this is terrifying to me. telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/03/3…

I think I’ve finally found the medical model. And it’s only £25!

Seen on the train this morning, don't time I've ever seen this sign before. Just trying to work out in what situation you would need all of these things at the same time...

Didn't expect to find a neurologists only bathroom in Greece, but there you go...

So nice to be back in the UK.

When I suggest going above 30ml/h propofol in ICU and the nurse looks at me in horror... if only they knew huh 😏

Definitely didn't just COMPLETELY DECK IT in theatre making the world's loudest crash in the middle of a dicey emergency laparotomy. Bones ok but pride injured.

Nice to see my anaesthetic dept making good use of teaching resources from Intersurgical

NHS England Workforce, Training and Education why- when you don't act on any of the feedback?

Physician Associate Association UK (PAAUK) Carole Hawkins The British Society of Interventional Radiology St George’s Radiology Department SCoR Members CIRSE Society of Interventional Radiology I consider myself qualified to comment having undertaken an intensive 17 year (i.e. around 816 weeks) training programme and Fellowship of a Royal College by examination to become a consultant. A short 2 yr course is woefully inadequate for anything other than an assistant role.

Good news folks. I am now a Culinary Professional! Thank you GMC

A timely reminder this week of three maxims: 1. The most important monitor is a well-trained and rested anaesthetist 2. The next most important is the EtCO2 3. Beware ASA1-2 pts for minor elective sx Anybody who thinks they can do this after a 2 yr course is, frankly, mad.

I wanted to follow up to some comments: patients are my ONLY motivation here. I’m an NHS consultant. I am a medically qualified, fully-trained expert in one specialty, and can call a friend who is an expert in any another. My job and income are secure. (1/8)
