Eye-opening presentation from #BlancaColl-Vinent #Barcelona: women likely need lower doses of meds in a fib, but there are no dose-adjustments in guidelines or from the manufacturers. Amio, sotalol, b-blockers, dig, anticoagulants…they all behave differently in women @eusem.bsky.social #EMedsky

Sobering talk: “Adapting our emergency systems to the threat of war” by Major General (rtd) Tim Hodgetts. Relevant for our current geopolitical climate, but also for my #EmergencyDept context in terms of crisis preparation. “Si vis pacem, para bellum.” @eusem.bsky.social #EMedsky

Traumatic hemotx summary: Suggest to only observe ie no chest tube if CT volume < 300 mL (Mergo’s formula)
Tube size: smaller is more comfortable. Traditionally, 28-32 Fr. is commonly used, but some US data shows an U/S guided 14 Fr. is an option for stable patients @eusem.bsky.social #EMedsky

Another year, another @eusem.bsky.social ! Happy to be in #Vienna and getting ready to learn about (hopefully) not putting in chest tubes for traumatic hemo- and pneumotx…let’s see what they do in #Finland and the #UK

The meaning of Mother’s Day is different for everyone. For some, it’s a day of celebration; for others, a time of reflection or remembrance. Whatever the circumstance, wishing all mothers a wonderful day filled with love!

the new zone is keeping senior patients safe and comfortable, while a team of specialized staff meet their health care needs. “We believe the geriatric zone sets a new standard for how emergency care can be tailored to meet the needs of our aging population…”
