Emmett Whitaker, MD, FAAP

Proud of my friend @ehigginsmd.bsky.social , an emerging leader in healthcare worker well-being, crushing it with a plenary at @nam.edu! Highlighting his vital work on measuring systemic influencers of well-being. The mentee is quickly surpassing the mentor- couldn't be happier!!

Does the seniority of the anaesthetist compared to the surgeon influence patient safety? New mixed methods analysis by Xu et al suggests this has little impact. #patientsafety #Ansky

An amazing showing from my lab at the annual at our Annual ACCM Research Day! I am so proud of them for accomplishing so much less than a year from when the lab opened! Our research program has an incredibly bright future! @sapnakmd.bsky.social #PedsAnesSky

@vcoelhosantoslab.bsky.social so glad to see you here!!

My lab is lucky to have the support from the Hopkins Dept of Anesthesiology and Crit Care Med that allowed us to acquire this surgical microscope- we are now able to do complex microvascular surgery! Also fortunate to have collaborators (pictured) from the JH Dept of Neurosurg #PedsAnesSky #AnSky

Did you know BlueSky only has 20 employees?

We would like to say a huge THANK YOU to those 20 warriors (who are working 24/7 to keep up with the incredible growth) for giving us a space to share.

We escaped hell to be here.

Thank you, @bsky.app & Jay Graber CEO (not a billionaire)

What an amazing opportunity! And you get to work with me closely! 😁 DM @dannymuehlschmd.bsky.social for details! #AnSky #MedSky #PedsAnesSky

New term, but not new approach! @pedsanesnet.bsky.social

Posture during intubation differs markedly between novices and experts!

Consider vertical head movement from mouth opening to tracheal tube insertion.

Also… #AnSky rolls off the tongue, but I feel like it’s insufficiently descriptive?

@pedsanesnet.bsky.social @sapnakmd.bsky.social @drseanbarnes.bsky.social looks like #pedsanes will be off brand for this platform…in line with #MedSky and #RASky …..should we claim #PedsAnesSky?

Anyone else feel like the workflow to follow people back once they follow you is….less straightforward than it could be? @bsky.app #pedsanes

Thanks for putting this together!

We definitely need a #pedsanes starter pack here- I nominate @pedsanesnet.bsky.social to take the lead

Do it!

Looking forward to connecting with others on #bluesky! #pedsanes
