Didn’t include those images, but it was actually moderate. So could have been worse!

A man in his 60s seeks the ED for chest pain starting a couple of hours before. ECG with lateral ST depression (almost painfree at this point). After #POCUS images the interventionalist agreed to take him. 100% LCX occlusion. Patient wins. #EMIMCC

A man in his early 30s, previously healthy, seeks the ED because of abdo pain, bloatedness and loose stools since 4 days. Not the first person I’d send to the CT scanner but #POCUS did not lie. CT showed SBO due to obstruction. Final diagnosis unclear right now. #EMIMCC

Florida eliminated all school vaccine mandates that protected kids for decades-including for measles & polio. Exemptions were already climbing, and without mandates, herd immunity collapses. Outbreaks of diseases we nearly eradicated are inevitable & entirely preventable.

"en systematisk avprofessionalisering av experten och det hot mot demokratin som så kallad strategisk kommunikation utgör". Resurser vid universiteten används allt mer för marknadsföring. Vilket leder till bedrövliga fall av desinformation som nedan som lyfts av Amina fof.se/artikel/fort...

Man in his 60s seeking ED for exertional dyspnea. Vitals unremarkable except HR 120. On Apixaban for earlier PE. Swears that he takes them. Leukocytes 13, CRP 104. Probe on #pocusky Still swears that he takes his Apixaban. Only after CT shows bilateral large PEs did he confess… #emimcc

Yes, completely clean. We’re guessing the prednisolone course. But not sure.

När jag började med ultraljud trodde jag inte att ett av de mest användbara områdena skulle vara ileusbedömning. Finns dessutom välstuderat. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28797559/ Thanks @thesgem.bsky.social for the reference above #pocus

Utilization of ultrasound for the evaluation of small bowel obstruction: A systematic review and meta-analysis - PubMed

The existing literature suggests that ultrasound is a valuable tool in the diagnosis of SBO with a sensitivity and specificity comparable to that of CT. Ultrasound may save time and radiation exposure...

”Vi ber om ursäkt för att vi kunde uppfattas som X” innebär inget ansvarstagande för X.

Det är ett skuldbeläggande av dem man riktar sig till.

En oärlig ursäkt är sämre än ingen ursäkt alls.

Sopor.

More than 100,000 people marched in Hungary’s annual Pride parade in Budapest on Saturday after Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s ban on the event backfired, turning what is usually a low-key parade into a mass rally against his government. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/28/w...

A bridge is packed with people, with scattered pride flags in the crowd. A headline reads: "Budapest Pride Parade Was Bigger Than Ever, Despite Government Ban." Photo by Janos Kummer/Getty Images.

This is a travesty & a nightmare. The US was a founder of @gavi.org. It lowers global vaccine costs, has vaccinated 1B children, & averted 19M deaths. This pull out will cost 100s of thousands of children's lives a year - and RFK Jr will be personally responsible.
