@emccdoc @DrMahrukh @salmannaeem217 @EMDocJB @Obidoc @LionelLamhaut @alice_hutin @phemDM @tscquizzato @srrezaie @EMManchester @ATACCGroup I think we find ourselves in a pretty interesting situation in the UK where pre hospital resuscitation is developing faster (and more advanced?) than in hospital resuscitation Invasive arterial access is a great example Any resuscitation departments putting in art lines?

This thread is a thing of beauty Particularly useful for anaesthetists who go to the emergency department RCEM guidance attached - particularly relevant to us is FASTING GUIDELINES The risk / benefit of unfasted sedation is different in these patients

Ok. A few bits. Will add a context of intravenous sedation for long bone fracture manipulation as an example. 1. Even when the pre-sedation environment is tense, noisy, loud, etc., speak gently with the patient before you start. Allocate someone to continue to speak smoothly and

I think what this is trying to say is.... Only 2/3rd of anaesthetist have an up to date RCUK certificate for paediatric resuscitation Clumsy wording but an important topic What's the next step?

This is probably why doctors haven’t received a credible offer yet “More money for tax cuts at next election” Expecting large numbers of strike days in the time leading upto election to focus voters minds

I’m in no doubt that the NHS’ biggest asset is the staff What is the point in a scanner, a ward bed, a ventilator - without the expertise? Watching two skilled consultants (alongside their team) calmly save a mother and a baby’s lives on a weekend night

This is going to be a complete disaster Trusts should be fined for rota gaps Rates should be escalated appropriately until staff found to fill them We need a way to put pressure on trusts not to ignore holes in the rotas

From press over the weekend it’s clear that government want to pay us in the NHS even less. Whatever professional group you’re in, join a union & vitally organise within it, recruit more colleagues, build links/WhatsApps & in the NHS that means across international groups+++✊🏻

@ShaunLintern @DOckendenLtd @MidwivesRCM I think as with all healthcare, if you’re not willing to invest in improving the service, you won’t make progress We can’t recruit to maternity services, it’s high stress hard work and isn’t paid enough. Staffing is poor. System fails. Vicious cycle

@ShaunLintern That’s a rubbish take for a few reasons 1. It is recurring because the strikes are ongoing! And will be until settlement 2. Lost staff 3. Staff who stay recognise poor leadership - knock on effects… 4. Directly contributes to waiting list
