Learning about Adaptive trials and Platform trials - Steve Webb talking about REMAP-CAP - the adaptive trial looking at COVID treatments.
Randomisation changes as data emerges. All patients benefit by being in the trial.

When anaesthetists talk about regional anaesthesia, do they mean sending an entire postal code to sleep? 🧐

Really good discussion and worthwhile read on the state of consent for #anaesthesia in the UK by Matt Ainsworth and Tim Cook (and not just because they reference our editorial in the first sentence! 😂)

Ever seen a poorly controlled epilepsy patient with a vagal nerve stimulator? A few years ago I had a patient with just that for a head an neck case. I had no idea - would you?
This is a really useful guideline from the Association of Anaesthetists:

#intubation geometry. I posted this on the bird site two years ago. This needs more attention. Maxillary arch and #laryngoscope in grey. Different tube locations in colours. Key things is the anterior displacement at the level of the #glottis.
I'm pretty sure that swinging the tube into the pink position by sliding down beside the molars and having the tube upright is what differentiates experienced intubators from novices.
As far as I know this has not been previously described. Please share and tag in #CriticalCare and #anaesthesia specialists.

Interesting that done years ago an Australian #motorist was in a crash which resulted in #massive head #trauma which he survived.
He developed a brain infection which resulted in him requiring 75% of his #brain to be removed.
When he came out of the #anaesthesia one of the tests involved #memory checking. He had a very very distinct #English #tory accent and admitted to having a very difficult to manage wish to screw the #butler in the #library using a #candle holder.

Started my medical life in surgery, then I saw the light!
Spent the rest of my career adjusting it - if asked nicely.

Catching up with last weeks #OnlyConnect my absolute favourite quiz show! Yet again amazed by the weird and random knowledge my husband has stored away in his brain! Perhaps if I hadn’t spent the last 15 years studying #medicine & the last 7-8 just #anaesthesia I’d have some general knowledge too 😂
