The construction of the new Cambridge South rail station 🚊 is progressing well 👏 …opening in 2025 the station will improve access 🚝 to @RoyalPapworth (and @CamBioCampus) for staff 🩺 and patients 🏥 and relatives coming to Cambridge from the north ✅ and the south ✅👍

1/ SVR looks precise: (MAP – RAP)/CO. But this neat number hides traps. It’s not “afterload,” it’s not pure “tone,” and sometimes it’s not even valid. A thread on why systemic vascular resistance misleads — and when it still helps. 🧵 #MedX

1/ Most people think the heart drives circulation. But what if that’s backwards? Anderson’s model flips the whole idea of cardiac output on its head — and it changes how you think about fluid, flow, and failure. 🧵👇 #physiology #FOAMed #MedTwitter #criticalCare #cardiacOutput

I hear a lot of BS at the moment - BS that goes “What does an EM clinician actually do? What value are they?” This from @EMManchester pretty much sums it up and separates us from other doctors. It’s what makes us unique in terms of decision making in medicine. #eusem2025
