Classic tamponade! Here we see both RV diastolic collapse and some LA systolic collapse. Note this is the anatomic #psla orientation which keeps the apex of the heart in the same position as subxiphoid.

One of my favorite #pocus combos! #RHS and McConnell's Sign followed by a positive #dvt study! Patient had bilateral saddle emboli. Hats off to our @JeffEMRes residents! @jeff_sono #foamed #EmergencyMedicine
Cool @jeff_sono #MSK case - long head biceps tendon tear causing Popeye sign (distal bulging of biceps muscle). #pocus shows hyperechoic retracted portion of biceps muscle. #foamed #medtwitter #EmergencyMedicine @JeffEMRes

This is who @ACEPNow is inviting to speak at the Leadership & Advocacy Conference?
He is a deeply unserious man who has at best a casual acquaintance with the truth. Surely we as a specialty can do better. At least find someone who defends their beliefs in good faith. – at Philadelphia, PA

It's time for JeffSono's #CaseOfTheMonth !

Stunning 😳
Median age of attrition from EM practice 45.6 for women and 59 for men
Approx 10 years after residency graduation for women 🤯
We need to fix our specialty to prevent this many women from leaving in their prime

Old news to the #pocus community but interesting read and a nice (mostly accurate) account of the evolution of #ultrasound newyorker.com/science/annals…

To prevent viral aerosol emission from the Pleurevac, we created a 3D printed adapter for HEPA filtration

Need your help #designtwitter and #MedTwitter - what are the best accessible visuals you have seen to address concerns about #COVID19vaccines ? I often see great posters explaining mRNA technology but they start with an assumption the viewer has a foundation in biology.
Very cool to see former @TJUHospital @JeffEMRes resident @DocCooper86 interviewed on vaccine deployment today!

Online only, speed of click signups create instant disparities.
The vaccine is not a PS5. States and local governments should collecting names on a rolling basis and running lotteries to distribute appointments.
First-come, first-serve is both unethical and inefficient
