What are you doing for rib ftx in your elderly pts? Have you heard of (or done) an Erector Spinae block? If no, consider it! Like a fascia iliaca block for the hip, can decrease opioid needs. One of the many blocks in our Regional Anesthesia library simkit.co

Is there a such thing as work-life balance? In our opinion, no. There is work, & it's part of your life. It is our job to find the balance. In this podcast with @emergencypdx we review tricks on how to maintain yourself and stay true to what's important. buff.ly/42VBIdR

🔪 pearl for emergent surgical cricothyrotomy: extend the neck! 🔪 ask an assistant to extend the neck for you (there’s no time for fancy positioning) 🔪 neck extension brings the airway closer to the skin. if there is excess soft tissue, it gets pulled to the side – at Burlington, VT

In our opinion, the US guided subclavian is the best type of central line. This podcast reviews the risks and benefits of the three main types (IJ, SC, & femoral) and explains why the subclavian with ultrasound guidance is the superior choice. buff.ly/42FNRFC #meded

Do you know why we ask questions with our training modules? It's not to keep you on your toes (though knowing questions are coming sure does help us pay attention!). It is part of what is called GENERATIVE LEARNING and is founded in cognitive science.

Its the idea of USING recently learned knowledge actually helps you remember! So rather than hitting a multiple choice question set after a learning session, bust out a pen and paper and write down take homes! #meded #foamed simkit.co
