The US has the highest maternal mortality of any developed country … and it’s about to get a lot worse.
Why? Pregnant women are afraid to go to the hospital for care.
They’re labouring at home alone because ICE will grab them as soon as they give birth.
This is dystopian.

In the brand new, patient-oriented infographics from @rcoanews.bsky.social about risks from Epidurals in labor, the section about Local anesthetic systemic toxicity gave me a pause : 1/1000 case of possible seizure/cardiac arrest seems really high and scary. doi.org/10.1186/s128... cites 4/10 000..

VL v DL Laryngoscopy
Additional evidence that VL is superior.
This question is settled. There is no rationale for not adopting a universal VL first approach (in high resource settings).

In adult patients undergoing tracheal intubation in real-world operating theatre settings, universal VL showed clear advantages over direct laryngoscopy.
This is the largest comparative analysis conducted to date!

Confirmed: India has lost at least one Rafale fighter jet. Wreckage with serial number BS-001 — the first Indian Dassault Rafale EH — was found in Bathinda, backing Pakistan’s claim.
