The University of Arkansas just launched the 1st U.S. based injectable BPC-157 Randomized Controlled Trial for tissue healing.
They’re studying post-rotator cuff surgery healing through objective measures like strength testing, MRI, and range of motion. Also patient reported questionnaires on recovery (PROMs).
This is what the science community and physicians needed.
Enrollment starts Early 2027.
First data likely to be seen Early 2028.
I will keep you updated.

This is a real email I received from a hospital a couple of years ago.
Finish up your online fatigue training. But do it at your own unpaid time. 90minutes of work. Find a time.
This is not how you deal with burnout.

If you have a high rate of “surprise bills” in your State, especially when it comes to emergency care, guess what? The networks are NOT adequate. Narrow Networks are the work & design of bullies trying to make a profit at the expense of patients, employers, and providers. #txlege – at Frisco, TX

Good news from DC that earlier this evening, the Senate overwhelmingly (99 to 1) passed its opioid package, which included both #ACEP-developed opioid bills, the #ALTO and #POWERAct. These bills will @EmergencyDocs combat the #opiatecrisis #StopOverdoses #SaveLives – at California, USA

#DrugShortages have been a problem for some time. Seems to be getting worse. Help and support @EmergencyDocs, Congress, and @SGottliebFDA to bring light to the causes and solve this problem newsroom.acep.org/2018-07-12…

Wow. Simply wow. I'm not sure attacking this company that has 24/7 urgent care at DFW, unlike any hospital, is a very smart idea.

#moleg passing strong health care bill to ensure ER claims are paid by your insurance company. Thanks to Speaker @Rep_TRichardson and @RobVescovo and @Mikelkehoe for allowing more time for consumer protection.

Forcing patients to diagnose their own illness may discourage people with serious problems from seeking care. Patients, docs, hospitals, consumer advocates, state and federal lawmakers are pushing back! mobile.nytimes.com/2018/05/1…

It's a bad #FluSeason this year & there's also a lot of #FakeNews about "why" and "how to deal with it." Dr. Justin Hensley (@EBMgoneWILD ) of @code3ER in Rockport speaks some truth and gives some advice to keep you out of the #ER. (hint: #VaccinesWork)

Being able to lie must be a required job skill for working for an insurance company. The commitment to lies is impressive. Lies upon lies, every single day. Argh. #insurancefail – at Frisco, TX

Happy New Deductible Day! How much (beyond your monthly premiums) will you have to shell out in 2018 before your insurance company actually starts to consider covering your healthcare. #StopUnderpayers
Peter B retweeted
Let's be clear...The law (#EMTALA) says ERs MUST stabilize & treat anyone who seeks care. It also says PATIENTS decide if their condition warrants an ER visit (#PrudentLayperson). Insurance Cos. denying ER coverage is AGAINST THE LAW! #StopUnderpayers
