Idaho Supreme Court upholds $3.5MM award for single air embolism case at St. Luke’s Magic Valley Medical Center. Even when not fatal, small amounts of air is damaging to the human body and can be fatal to patients with PFOs. @0X2020 idahostatejournal.com/news/l…
California recently fined 13 hospitals over $1MM for patient safety issues. Air embolism is a preventable, non-reimbursable, Hospital Acquired Condition. What is your hospital doing to protect patients from dangerous air burden? goo.gl/wjP7Vr clearlinemd.com/
Looking forward to exhibiting at ASA 2018 @ASALifeline - "Physician Anesthesiologists Save Lives" - with @ClearLineMD One mL of air is too much.
