Yes indeed. Ventilator (in S2E8) is based on the Bird Mk 7 ventilator, although the props dept seem to have taken some liberties. Breathing circuit is an interesting amalgam. Infection Control will have a field day when they see what Harmony does with that used trache tube...

The Leng Review into the role of PAs and AAs has launched its survey for healthcare professionals. We strongly encourage all anaesthetists to complete the survey and to make full use of the free text sections to elaborate on their views.

Glad you enjoyed the talk and the meeting. Better late than never! If you liked this, of you liked this one, keep an eye out for the Resident Doctors Conference at the end of June...

Great to see the QRH used in this way. Would be good to hear more. Landscape format QRH... Controversial!

It's great to be able to herald the arrival of three very important new BlueSky accounts from the Association of Anaesthetists. Check them out and see which one (or ones!) fits you best: @assocanaes.bsky.social and @assocsas.bsky.social and @anaesresidents.bsky.social

So... I saw a crowd of people I know and like heading this way, and I thought I'd head over and take a look. It seems alright. Who knows which way things will go, but I'm here to find out!
