#worldsepsisday
April 2025 I was fit, training for a 2nd ultramarathon. I felt flu-y, 48h later in hospital. 24h later I was peri-arrest. I was delirious and struggling to breathe. 2 weeks later I left hospital and began the long road to recovery that I’m still on. #sepsis can happen to anyone.

What are the benefits and potential pitfalls of using hybrid closed loop systems in #Type1Diabetes during #surgery?

Which drugs alter CBG readings? Does this mean they can’t be used?

As I anaesthetise (almost) exclusively #cancer patients, a large proportion of whom have had steroids and some are adrenally insufficient due to immunotherapy this is my most well used guideline.

Important message from this study on emergency front of neck access for CICO:

Making the decision is the hardest part; the doing is easier.

There are a lot of acronyms involved in the treatment of cancer!

As a part of our Oncoanaesthesia edition, Weaver & @DrSusannahP.bsky.social provide an overview of common neoadjuvant regimens and their toxicities.

Really proud of this article. I hope it explains how the expansion of cancer treatments is both benefitting patients and moving into our realm of anaesthesia.

A very wet Manchester today. We’re not flooded but we have friends who are very worried if it rains again.

This year my boys decided that Santa wanted a shot of lemon gin (straight, no tonic 😬), a gluten free mince pie - homemade because Santa likes homemade better and would leave more presents and the obligatory carrot for the reindeer.
Santa made a mess of our hearth to say thank you…

Finally, overly simplistic rhyming aphorisms may in themselves have potential to predispose to a cognitive bias.
