@jointdocShields That is *uncomfortably * warm. The hand doc that I used to work with kept it at a brisk 63°F in his OR, and honestly between the surgical gown and lead that was pretty comfortable.

I don’t care what anyone says, “I feel fine but my wife made me come in” has a positive predictive value for something being really fucking wrong that approaches 100%

In 2007, two friends and I went to Red Lobster during their endless shrimp deal and had 30 dozen between the three of us. I like to think that we were the butterfly (shrimp) effect that led us to this outcome today.

PRO TIP: if you’re a doctor stuck inside for the eclipse you can still experience 4 minutes of total darkness by scheduling a peer review call with a colleague outside your specialty who denies one of your patients the treatment they need

@RuralFMPA I work in psych and regularly prescribe it for insomnia, especially if there’s an anxiety component in the mix.

@Hi_Dr_Nick @MrsPA_C Cool take, bro. The CDC defines child abuse and neglect as "any act or series of acts of commission or omission by a parent or other caregiver that results in harm, potential for harm, or threat of harm to a child." Seems to me like it fits the definition.

I took 1.5 days off from clinic this week to lecture and help out with simulations and interprofesional education at a local PA program, and I’d forgotten how much teaching energizes me. I *love* engaging with students and getting them to think critically.

@malone_mk Not sure how big the UK market share is for these brands but in the US, outside of Figs, I’d go with: - Stoggles - Clove shoes - Eko stethoscopes - Medelita

@RuralFMPA Changing specialties from ortho to psych and seeing the discrepancies b/w the rate that people will rx long-term Norco or other controlled pain meds but will hesitate to rx stimulants really drives me nuts. Use a validated screening, monitor for misuse, and trust patients.

@NurseGomer A revision is always going to be a bit of a wild card, though. More scar tissue, more sensitivity, planes of tissue aren’t as clean when dissecting during surgery, etc.

@NurseGomer I work with a hand/elbow surgeon and he only does transpositions for his cubital tunnel releases; I’ve never seen him do just an in situ release. We remove sutures at 8-10 days and let our patients do whatever they want at that point. Most don’t have any issues at all with pain.
