Normal blood pressure does not rule out sepsis.
Lactate ≥2 mmol/L, delayed vasopressors, fluid overload, and missed sources are where outcomes are decided.
A practical 2025 guide to sepsis recognition and early management.

Why use a syringe and needle when accessing a vein to insert a central line….its so cumbersome…instead you can use a cannula which makes the process so much easier #fy #fyp #pov #anaesthesia #anesthesia #vascularaccess

Check out Ahmed's excellent video encouraging young people to have their say about research. You may recognise someone!
@letsgetvocal
"I've always thought there's quite a divide between laboratory research & young people. I wanted to address that gap and bring the two together".
Watch Ahmad's #LetsTalkLabs film encouraging young people to have their say in @ManchesterBRC @ManchesterCRF research.

IMPORTANT: Consultant in England? This week I "saved" over £2,600* from my 24/25 AA bill by sending 2 emails! See how much you MAY be able to "save" on the table below i.e. a year 18 consultant with 30 years 1995 might save UP TO £7k (... get a more accurate estimate by finding your year / on call supplement and multiply your TROF (Tax Rip Off Factor) by years in 1995*
In preparation go onto ESR, download Mar 24, May 24 + Nov 24 payslips & 23/24 TRS - and then I will talk you through IF you are also affected by this "misallocated arrears" error from the backpay paid after industrial action in May '24 (download the payslip where those arrears were paid after our IA)
I will do a video and provide some email templates to see over the xmas break to see if you, like me, were affected by this error and how to fix it
Please share/ RT including on your FB / Whatsapp groups etc.
In preparation watch the instructional video so you know how to use the modeller and download from the links below
