Proton is so good these days I just assume it's going to work.

What happens when you ventilate a reservoir bag full of pepsi.

Potential confounding factor for unrecognised oesophageal intubation.

Just bought a diamond.

It may be a synthetic polycrystalline diamond for a 3D printer nozzle, but it still counts right?

What's the resolution and things like these days? Only had a go on a very early version of the oculus many years ago, which still caused motion sickness...

What do you get the person who has everything?

Their own skull of course!

I think so, need to get a sample of TPU to poke with a needle to see what it feels like. I've used agar to make a gel like substrate before, which you could embed the objects.

First time, this is the 3rd thing I've ever printed.

Medical wise - I think it could be interesting, going to look into printing ultrasound phantoms.

Don't worry, already a benchy and a torture toaster deep at this point!

There was a point where everyone was talking about the word 'delves' being a sign of AI.

Just madness, as I'm sure I use the word more than average, but I'm blaming reading fantasy rather than using large language models.

Thanks! It's like a very extensive Lego set. Just having to hug the walls on my way to the kitchen this morning to avoid losing pieces!

Graph from GMC workforce survey showing declining numbers of F2s going straight into training.

Graph from GMC workforce survey showing declining numbers of F2s going straight into training.

GMC Workforce Report release.

Less than 25% of F2s going straight into training.

Fewer people in anaesthetic training than in 2019 (although not clear how the new curriculum changes this).

The 'standard' pathway of med school > foundation > training > CCT looking less and less standard.

Moving final talk at SASWR today, Prof Montgomery left the whole room lost for words.

We all need to think how healthcare and our lives can be made sustainable.

Isn't part of this issue that private sector means many different things?

Not sure people really object to using independent contractors for various reasons.

However, when large profit-seeking organisations start to influence how services are delivered/commissioned, that's when there are problems.

Toying around with Head-Mounted Displays and anaesthesia.

What's an anaesthetic going to look like in 20 years?

Perioperative medication errors in anaesthesia make up ~5% of administrations when recorded by observers.

Does this seem accurate? What steps are/can we take to reduce this?
