1. Optimise patient position Ear-to-sternal notch horizontal alignment with neck flexion never lets you down. Also called 'flextension' this is identical to the optimal direct laryngoscopy position

The iGel is a great supraglottic airway device But like other supraglottic airway devices (SAD) it's not foolproof Here's how to maximise your success with the iGel - a thread 🧵

Here’s another pulmonary physiology question that *everyone* who gives O2 to patients ought to know: What is the primary mechanism by which supplemental oxygen can increase PaCO2 in someone with severe COPD? 1/

And what was the consequence of all that hyponatremia? All that rapid correction? 12 of osmotic demyelinating syndrome. 12 out of 22,858. 0.05% If you divide by starting Na they found an incidence of: 0.3% with a Na < 120 0.015% with a Na > 120 **2.5% with a Na < 110** 7/10

🚀Na over-correction (Na📈) as THE (only) cause of ODS/CPM: An absurd over-simplification. Since 1980s, Na📈 has been portrayed as the main cause of CPM (so far as now the terms ODS and CPM are used synonymously). However, finding the truth (if it exists) is more complicated. 🧵.. 1/

Absent lung sliding is sensitive but nonspecific sign of pneumothorax. US lung point or X-ray are usually needed prior to chest tube placement. Normal BP in this patient made tension pneumothorax unlikely. Table lists causes of absent lung sliding. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/article…
