Interesting how much trouble a little box with text can cause.
In the new ALS tachycardia algorithm the VT/is it VT? box is confusing enough that it's already been amended into a version 2 but also asks for procainamide (no UK license so it's interesting to source!).
Happy New Year and a Prosperous Year of the Horse to everyone! Even to the wind that blew away the banners around my door.
A Chinese New Year LEGO tree
a sign hanging from a tree saying "thank you past me!"
Wife brings this downstairs.
Me: "ooh, that's lovely, where did you get it?"
Wife: "you bought it last year cheap after last Chinese New Year."

New Lilo & Stitch: defeats enemy by kinda winning a fight on a spaceship.
OG Lilo & Stitch: defeats enemy by stealing petrol tanker, driving it into a volcano, riding the explosion wave and beating up the alien guard whilst dropping wisecracks.
OG Stitch FTW every time.
Drat, knew I'd been doing something wrong.

Maybe it's just the way it's phrased but this just feels a bit like a lecture on the correct way to suck eggs is being delivered.
Also a non-breather mask sounds dangerous.
Should there be a bit more history here?
IKR.
For a whole year now I've been responding to WhatsApp messages with themed emojis instead of just simple thumbs up/smiley faces and not one person has commented on it.
Yes. Also, fun fact, in the original script it was spelt Inniego Man Toyer. But he still wanted you to prepare to die.

Ok, but what are you going to draw on it?
SO CLOSE
Tired: two-factor authentication
Wired: n+1-factor authentication, where successfully authenticating on a new device just allows you to log in again, triggering another authentication request. Repeat ad infinitum
Ok Gemini, that's pretty good.

lowest acuity setting appropriate to them" and it almost feels like you could measure the success of a streaming initiative using it (apart from just measuring time to stream.)
...then one of the goals of (safe) streaming of patients presenting to ED would be to produce a leftward shift.
I just really like it as a phrase but I'm not certain it actually speaks to anyone but it was a touch more exciting to me than the dry maxim "patients should be cared for in the
@kurtstat.bsky.social has anyone ever used the phrase 'leftward shift of acuity in streaming' (and I'm slightly embarassed to be asking this.)
My thought: if you thought of acuity of setting on the x-axis with home at the left and ED resus on the right, and patient numbers on the y-axis...
Also: today year's old when I found out Boba Fett was based on Clint Eastwood in Fistful of Dollars.
The Mandolorian is quite good, isn't it?
People in the NHS when someone uses the BCC (blind carbon copy) function in e-mails.
The most caustic effect of Brexit is the rise in the view that democracy is just about voting on things.
(Ideally it's a complex interlocking system that relies on the rules and interplay between Parliament, government, courts and the press to try and maximise freedom and quality of life for all.)
Or is that muddying the waters again and moving away from the idea of making this a metric of the 'middle period' of patient time.
Indicators of patient flow dysfunction mainly focus on either the hospital front door (e.g. breaches of the four-hour target) or the hospital back door (e.g. delayed transfers of care). But patient flow dysfunction manifests itself *everywhere* in a general hospital.

And thinking out loud - if it is WrongWardHours you could add in the length of time that the patient spends in ED waiting for bed, which are also wrong hours.
Is this a snapshot metric - e.g. this is the level of dysfunction in the hospital atm. or is it measured in something like WrongWardHours - e.g. how many hours each patient spends in the wrong place?
You're also missing out on the opportunity to create an Alan Partidge-esque moment where an adorable but annoying 7 year old struggles with the concept that she's two grades higher then you.
The important thing to understand about AI is that everything that everyone else creates using it is mindless slop that is heating up the planet but everything I create using it is like a cross between Oscar Wilde and Van Gogh and was 100% worth it.
