#Zentensivist passionate about PH/RV Hemodynamics (esp in Liver Disease & ARDS) | Anti-structural violence | co-EIC shockwaves.icu views = mine
- The ICU is not where patients should discover that their cancer-directed therapy is palliative in intent.
- Interesting issue in mechanical ventilation of #COVID19 patients, each one here after >10 days of mechanical ventilation. How might we monitor for development of this? Time to pay attention to resistance, oft neglected in the age of COVID #ARDS... #tweetorial #SoMe4MV
- Reflections on a cricothyrotomy: I wanted to share my personal first experience performing this high-acuity and rare procedure, in the hopes that others will learn from it. Consider this part reflection, part tweetorial upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/comm…
- You’re called to see a patient with rapidly worsening shock. On the monitor you see the waveform on the left. An intervention was performed leading to the waveform on the right, within 5 min. What’s the problem? What improved it? #HemodynamicsWaveformChallenge
- “Matt, why do you perform delayed sequence intubation with NG placement and head-up intubation for your massive upper GI bleed (and ileus) patients?”
- Leaving an ultrasound machine near a plug but not plugged in is a mortal sin. Sorry, I don’t make the rules! #POCUS
- Getting “fluid overload is nephrotoxic” tattooed on my forehead
- 🚨 Announcement: after lots of perseveration, I’ve finally decided to launch a new site. 🚨 zentensivist.com #zentensivist
- Context free waveform challenge. Not intubated, no distress, resp effort unremarkable
- Imagine withholding CT contrast for fear of nephropathy when you suspect a life-threatening condition #FOAMed
