Residents: I cannot stress this enough… Your job is not to protect the attending Your job is to protect the patient Yes you should call the attending, yes you should wake them up. (By the way - if you protect the patient ➡️ you are protecting the attending) #MedTwitter #MedEd

How should #surgeryresidency address gender-related #implicitbias? Hemphill et al. @TempleSurgery tackle this important topic at sciencedirect.com/science/ar…! #surgtwitter #MedEd #SurgEd #WomenInMedicine

Can’t imagine one person who would disagree. But passion for prevention is not mutually exclusive from celebrating the ‘wins’ for #StopTheBleed. The momentum in grassroots advocacy that has carried @StopTheBleed will hopefully power us to next #StopTheNeed #ThisIsOurLane – at Pittsburgh, PA

I support a red flag law in Pennsylvania. This law would provide a way to temporarily remove guns from people in crisis. Similar laws are already saving lives in other states. Join me in calling on legislators to get a red flag bill to my desk. penncapital-star.com/paforwa…

This past weekend a balloon popped and the entire Boca Raton Mall panicked and ran for their lives. The mall filled with #Parkland Students thought there was an active shooter when there was none. Society has been crippled by this Public Health Crisis. #Enough #Thisisourlane

Ever wish there was a reverso M&M where your colleagues great decisions and outcomes are shared for education purposes? Maybe call it Saves & Survivals?

Yesterday marked 200 days since the House passed #HR8, my bipartisan bill to expand background checks. Since then, Leader McConnell has done nothing to help prevent gun violence and keep our communities safe. RT to tell him it’s time to #DoSomething.

I support the #PeacePlan because Americans have the right to live free from #GunViolence. This quote from Thomas Jefferson hits the nail on the head. Our Founding Fathers clearly had an understanding that changes in laws & constitution would be necessary as progress was made.

UPDATE: The first-grader who found a loaded gun at an Ohio elementary school pointed it at another student. The gun belonged to the school’s transportation director, who was allowed to carry it as part of the district’s plan to arm select staff members. buff.ly/2P6hGwH

Systemic intraop AC for arterial repairs and full AC postop for major venous repairs. Last call: infrarenal cava repair after transabdominal GSW, now on full AC. Less scary than massive PE journals.lww.com/jtrauma/Ful… journals.lww.com/jtrauma/Ful… #SoMe4Trauma #SoMe4Surgery
