Our study in @AnnalsofEM found when there is a consequence to the pain score recorded in the ED, staff may record what they think PS should be, not what patient says it is. This reduces validity of PS as a measure of change in pain severity. @RCollEM @painfreeED 1/2

Road crashes claim more than 2 lives every minute, killing nearly 1.2 million people every year.
If these deaths were caused by a virus, it would be called a pandemic and the world would scramble to develop a vaccine to prevent them.

Our Review of Neonatal Assessment and Practice in Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic Newborns highlighted the need for educational resources to help healthcare professionals assess babies at risk of jaundice. This new resource helps meet that need.
Review:

We've released a resource to help healthcare professionals spot jaundice in babies with dark skin tones. Together we can improve assessment of jaundice, prevent treatment delays, and tackle ethnic inequalities in healthcare.

Very important line here from @LouHaigh on road safety:
"We treat road safety in a way as if it is somehow a natural accident. If the number of people being killed or seriously injured on our roads, were being killed in any other way, we'd be treating it as a pandemic."

Whenever I hear a new detail in the Gisele Pelicot case I’m further horrified.
Imagine thinking you’re in a loving marriage - and suddenly finding out your husband has been inviting men to assault you while you’re unconscious?
It only gets worse from there /1 🧵

Burning wood damages our #Climate.
👍 Planting a new tree is great but...
👎 ...it takes decades of growth before that new tree is mature enough to absorb the carbon emitted from the one burnt last night.
