I simply don't care about the financial commitments you chose to embrace, @RCPhysicians. You receive some £9m/year in membership fees from doctors like me. Yet you currently represent us not at all. It's sheer madness that we're begging you for rigour in medicine 🤷‍♀️ #RCPEGM
RCP has legal contracts for the PA exam so if PA programme is paused it could cost the RCP millions - RCP treasurer does not want to pause and 'need to think about the impact of motion 5' #RCPEGM

Well done Andrew Pritchard! 👏🏻 In October, the Lung Function Team suffered the sudden loss of Service Manager, Pete Moxon. He not only stepped up to the challenge of becoming the new service lead, but he became the department’s rock during a challenging time. #RoyalAward2023

Today's #ICUOnePager is about chest tubes. What is that bubbling box next to the bed and how does it work? What's an "air leak"? What does "water seal" mean? This #OnePager explains how chest drains work & even teaches you how to build one using three bottles & some tubing.

1/🧵 Ever wonder why corticosteroids like dexamethasone treat cerebral edema related to brain tumors? I assumed the answer involved "anti-inflammatory effects", but there's much more going on. #medtwitter #tweetorial
