A patient with stable coronary artery disease and type 2 diabetes describes their threshold for angina being closely correlated with their blood glucose levels. What likely explains this phenomenon? #physiology #cardiology #cardioed #foamcc #foamed

We just release our new app after months of hard work!! Can’t say enough how I’m very proud to be part of this amazing team !!

Xylazine aka Tranq aka Zombie Drug has made its way into our local drug supply...
A veterinarian sedative/analgesia not unlike dexmedetomidine
(and yes...I EVEN drew it's structure for those that want it...you KNOW WHO YOU ARE 👀)

I have hopes for #critcare and #icu Mastodon
I hope people will share and discuss experiences and thoughts from critical care, and interesting bits of research (their own and others)
I am hoping for more journals and critcare science outlets to join and share
I think it can be great with a collective effort, and in contrast to other outlets be less suceptible to the whims of billionairs

Oh, a trial about my NIGHTMARE?
The way we assess patients for wakefulness is marred by paralysis, remember the paralytics last MUCH longer than the sedatives!!

Very interesting that “Critical Care and Resuscitation” is now an #OpenAccess journal!

And... here's Part II, again, available free for a limited time only. (They are meant to be part of a CME program I believe.)
I found it notable they lumped #hEDS and the #HSDs into one category jointly called "SJH". This makes sense to me! #EDS

#POCUS is the real stethoscope !
What is used since Laënnec should be named “stethophone” instead of “stethoscope”
Wonderful insight from an 1913 article👇

Very interesting case report of pulse methylprednisolone in treatment of steroid-refractory #Immune #CheckPointInhibitor #pneumonitis
We also treated a patient with a grade IV pneumonitis with high dose steroid. My observation is a very rapid improvement, within 48h.
Further research is needed but it could be promising for life-threatening immune checkpoint inhibitor reaction

Further, Dysautonomia International uncovered some glaring conflicts of interest (the docs were/are selling related supplements).
So, please take the multiple news articles saying "MTHFR causes hEDS and can be fixed" with a huge grain of salt (or 5000, especially if you have POTS), and slow your roll.
The devil is always in the details.

Great discussions of Andrew Davies with Chris Nickson on this episode of #MasteringIntensiveCare podcast !
Talking education, personal well-being, psychological safety & more
Definitely worth listening!

Interesting study by colleges of #CHUSteJustine on room temperature stability of neuromuscular blockers
- Rocuronium 👉 18 months
- Succinylcholine 👉 6 months
Can be helpful for crash cart planning
