Good luck to all of the attendees at the British Intestinal Failure Alliance (BIFA) meeting taking place tomorrow.

Cancelling patients list after list because of lack of beds is devastating, let alone emotionally draining for the teams involved. We can’t go on like this in the NHS Matt Hancock What’s the solution?

Checking micronutrient levels of Intestinal Failure patients is of no use if CRP > 50. Useful lessons from Dr Alison Culkin at #BIFA BAPEN UK @SalfordRoyalNHS James Edward Nicholson

Dangerous conclusion in my opinion. If message is to repair most of them electively, then elective mortality will rise. Bias in selection of elective vs emergency. And decompensated cirrhosis independent risk factor. Still select CAREFULLY!!

Today, the first patient was recruited to our clinical trial looking at ways to reduce #incisionalhernia occurrence after #renaltransplant. Thank you to David van Dellen Titus angelasummers and many others for helping us get this far. MRI Transplant Unit
