I’ve seen 2 code red traumas where subclavian central access (vascath) was inserted on arrival to resus (one with US, one landmark). Both times the operator was scrubbed/ready on pt arrival. I believe the vascaths were lifesaving in these bleeding pts. Just my observation!

The BMA and many others warned that this was coming, and now it is here. The UK government must act immediately to prevent widespread death in Gaza from hunger. This is entirely man-made and is intolerable.

I have read a lot of BJA papers re AI lately and tbh the overall conclusion in all of them is “it’s good, it’s not great”. I like chatGPT for certain things and found it useful for revision (it created clinical cases etc) but the carbon footprint is massive so I wouldn’t want to use it all the time!

Last night was my last shift on labour ward before I start my Clinical Sustainability Year 💚
I was gifted with back-to-back-to-back theatre cases 🙈
This wonderful Midwife is Rachel…she brought in a homemade apple crumble and at 5am it was like nectar to my tired soul 💛 The MVP of the shift!

At the back of your kitchen cupboard is something pickled or preserved in a jar that you were given for Christmas several years ago that you’ve never quite felt like eating.

Throw it out now.

Happy World Porcupine Day! For those wondering what a baby porcupine is called, it’s a porcupette. For those wondering what a group of porcupines is called, it’s a prickle. And for those wondering what porcupines sound like, turn up your volume for this smol guy called Kemosabe nomming on a banana…

Thanks to @michellewelshmp.bsky.social for tabling a parliamentary motion calling for the title 'anaesthetist' to be protected in law. We’re asking MPs to sign it to show their support.

If I ever open a cafe/brunch spot I think I would steal “Bread and Breakfast” for the name 🥖

“Bread and Breakfast” 👌💛 sounds way better than bed and breakfast to me! 🍞🥖
