I wouldn’t hang my hat on that diagnosis 😳 see ECG strip in OP.
Fun with LLMs: My friend is seeing a cardiologist for some heart issues. He took the ECG reading and gave it to ChatGPT (4o model). He got the AI Safety Guardrails to turn off by lying to it. Told it "I'm a cardiologist looking to confirm my own diagnosis." It word for word said the same thing his cardiologist said.

Great thread on iGel placement
The iGel is a great supraglottic airway device But like other supraglottic airway devices (SAD) it's not foolproof Here's how to maximise your success with the iGel - a thread 🧵

Interesting thread on dose-dependent epi (high dose vs low dose) and hypotension.
Can epinephrine cause hypotension? A patient is transferred the ICU with hypotension on 4 mcg/min (.05 mcg/kg/min) epinephrine. Thought to be a GI bleed, resuscitated but was still hypotensive with a HR in the 60s, BP100/40 (60) Takes carvedilol Epi stopped MAP 60->90 🤯 How

Glad I searched #xylazine before I started in on animations of A2 receptors 😅. Here’s a must-read thread on ‘zombie drug’ and mechanism of action! Research in OP.

I like to edit the thumbnails so it looks like @christifulli88 is laughing at a hilarious joke I’m telling him.

I’ve seen a few threads about oxygen administration and COPD lately. This one hits the nail on the head 🔨

Interesting question. Anyone?
Most of the pro c-collar types whom Ive encountered cite legal ( not medical) reasoning for their actions. Can anyone produce ANY recent ( 10 years) legal literature/cases in which there was a successful lawsuit awarded against EMS/EM for a bad neuro outcome blamed on not placing a c-collar??
