Why do ICU clinicians approach ventilation differently? The approach depends on how the lung is interpreted in real time. In this episode, Dr Rory Spiegel and Dr Max Hockstein explore both sides of APRV. Link in comments 👇

New study: Higher annual ECMO center volumes link to fewer pulmonary complications in VV, reduced hemorrhagic issues in VA and VV, but more mechanical complications in VA, dependent on center volume at ECMO start. 📊 #ECMO buff.ly/xc34gNl

Nope. Just like pulse oximetry won’t replace a blood gas or echo hemodynamics won’t replace a RHC in certain situations, respectively.

Excited to share our work surrounding ACLS medications and neurologic outcomes in ECPR.

In ECPR, higher epinephrine exposure is linked to worse neurologic outcomes—medication effects may be unmasked by ECPR @NickJohnsonMD @csmfisher @JoeTonnaMD @maxhockstein @MedStarHealth @UofUHealth ahajrnls.org/45xykdq

The most on-axis shot (ever) is I think what @DavidWienerMD said. Pretty sure that's what he said.

Like the troponin, imaging, or risk scores, AI will make good doctors great and bad doctors worse. We use technology. Technology doesn’t use us. #ChatGPT

Was interviewed by @TIME magazine about chatGPT in healthcare and it got me wondering whether we’ve forgotten what doctoring really is - a human exercise married to science and trchnology. Anyway not sure when it’ll come out but interesting times indeed @CMichaelGibson @DLBHATTMD @scooperpr @pkothapalliMD

21. A hyperdynamic LV (“kissing” papillary muscles) on echo is not necessarily a sign of hypovolemia & should not reflexively trigger iv fluid bolus. Give yourself 1 mg of iv epinephrine and see what happens in your LV. Actually: don’t do it!

Few tips for the CA-1s who just started: 1. Call for help early 2. If an LMA doesn’t sit well, replace it or intubate, otherwise you will be fighting under the drapes the whole case 3. If the IV is not running well or you think you need another one, get it at the beginning of the case 4. You can always give more meds, but you can rarely take away what you have given
