Everyone should try to get themselves on a guidelines committee at least once in their careers, because people usually only see the finished product, and they aren’t aware of the enormous amount of jockeying and uncertainty that go into almost all guidelines.

Congrats Patrick Murphy for his #EAST2025 MTC on staffing in acute care surgery. A nice quote from one of his study participants: “Acute care surgeons are like firefighters. You don’t pay firefighters to show up when there’s a fire. You pay firefighters to stay in shape, stay
