FAST is a useful screening tool for identifying stroke at call-taker level in South Africa. But not asked in about 50% of suspected stroke. Next step is to find out why... tinyurl.com/y5ug7zjh @ParamedicPapers @mcclg

Friends with hospitals using resusable plastic masks.. please send photos of your cleaning/drying stations. Or protocols. Thanks! #covid4MDs
Media outlets really need to stop reporting overall #COVID numbers Remember: WE ARE NOT TESTING the vast majority of patients with likely COVID symptoms The numbers are massive under-estimates, and put the public at risk through a false sense of reassurance
Important resources from The Society of Critical Care Medicine (S.C.C.M) to help Critical Care Providers prepare, treat patients and stay safe as the outbreak escalates. Please read and share with your ICU colleagues.
Given the shortage of PPE, any reason why we can't wash coveralls/gowns if it is re-useable material like Dupont Tychem?@bad__EM @Riekert4d @sian_geraty
COVID-19 in perspective. Note that SARS was arguably worse.

Are small cuffed tubes routinely available in your hospital? Cuffed ETTs are now standard of care in #PedsICU: 🔐 journals.lww.com/pccmjournal/Ci… Be safe though: see next tweet 1/2
This is a great guide. Especially the explanation of the times to use different values. Peri-intubation arrest is often due to neglect of good respiratory management of acidosis.

Stop wondering what the ideal conference might be, and go to it. There is nothing out there like #badeemfest20 right now. No hype. No bull. Just people intensely interested in serving other people. And in having a bit of fun while doing it.
