Great show, worth a listen...With VTE prophylaxis there is a fine line between appropriate dosing and insanity. Dennis Kim erases the line.

Shock Trauma open for business! The snow this morning was deeper, now it’s slippery sleet. My thoughts are with the ICU nurses, and staff, walking to work. Watch out for ice.

Excellent presentation on the inaccuracies of disclosures related to REBOA Bellal! A career should never be in jeopardy for presenting unfavorable data. Especially if it questions industry practices. Bravo! @topknife #WTA2023 #FellowshipOfTheSnow

Nice study! Aspirin for VTE prophylaxis in some trauma patients? A few items: Lower DVT rate with enoxaparin, enoxaparin dosed at 30q12 instead of 40q12 or higher per WTA/AAST/COT, selective UTZ screening, ASA cohort could receive 2 enox doses. nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NE…
