Highlights
Estimated incidence of dystonia post-ABI admitted to PICU was 3.2%
Incidence higher in hypoxia/anoxia (8.3%)& TBI(6.2%) cohort
Dystonia emerged early (50% within a week)& persisted at 6mths
Those who developed dystonia had median lower GCS &longer PICU admission
Great to have our study on #dystonia post #ABI published - thanks so much to @KMGorman_Neuro and @IrwinGill for their invaluable expertise in this important topic in #PICU #rehabilitation #neurology
A belated Happy International Nurses Day to all the amazing paediatric nurses whom I’ve had the pleasure of working with throughout the years. Thank you everything you do every day 💞 #InternationalNursesDay
So very proud of @CaoimheCostigan on telling her incredible story on @DFTBubbles. A “must listen” for all in healthcare who may find ourselves one day on the other side.

Only 10 more sleeps until virtual @BPNA_org AGM hosted by Dublin Great local & international speakers including: @ingridscheffer &precision💊@markcnewry &mitochondrial epilepsy,Prof Holthausen cortical dysplasia & epilepsy &Mr Martin Tisdall discussing minimally invasive surgery
So delighted to see this, a campaign very close to my heart. I got my place in medicine in 2007 through Higher Education Access Route (HEAR). So important that access is available so all students can reach their full potential 👩⚕️🧑⚕️
Only 3.5% of medics are from disadvantaged backgrounds. We're trying to change this so students from all backgrounds can say #ILookLikeAMedic👩⚕️👨⚕️ On Oct 6th will be running through everything you need to know about applying to Medicine in 🇮🇪 Pls RT #IrishMed #EdchatIE #MedTwitter

Twin clamps for the Med regs on call ✅ - Good to know some IT systems still functioning 🙄😂 @DubCityCouncil @CaoimheCostigan #inittogether #CyberAttack
Brilliant work from @drdoolan and Dr. Kinoshita on benefits and recommendations for breastfeeding in Ireland. A must read for every HCP.
A new paper from the Royal College of Physicians of Ireland highlights health benefits of breastfeeding and proposes actions to improve Irish breastfeeding rates.

A practical guide on how to approach the diagnosis, investigation and treatment of childhood-onset dystonia. Hopefully, makes the topic of dystonia less complex and challenging for trainees and paediatricians

Michael Byrne, affectionately known as “Old Man Belfield” by students and staff, sadly passed away on Monday 11 January 2021.
A fiercely private person, we thank those of you who quietly looked out for Michael.
We will miss him around the campus.

Good work @rohan_gupta97
Epiglottis is rare now but worth knowing about. The initial assessment card is really useful IMO
I wish I had something like these in my first paeds job
Really interesting webinar this evening by Prof Ciarán O' Boyle, Professor of Psychology with @RCSI_Irl, organised by the @jobswithCHI Professionalism Team in response to staff feedback. Well done to all involved- Going to try this tonight!

@rosieconnolly you have done phenomenal work raising money for our paediatric hospitals...perhaps you wouldn’t mind giving this a share on your social media? Another extremely worthy cause for the kiddies of Ireland 💖 gf.me/u/y6hjm7
