- Officially the highest BP I have ever seen!!! 🤯🤯🤯 And yes...A-line was zeroed and leveled #FOAMed #MedEd #Hypertension
- This is not my normal post but something important to me... I have depression I am not depression I am not my mental illness My mental illness does not define me My mental illness is part of me Don’t be ashamed of your story. It will inspire others. #breakthestigma
- Replying to @GregAbbott_TXAs a frontline ER doc in San Antonio... @GregAbbott_TX removing mask mandate sends wrong message to public...the pandemic is not over and this is a BIG mistake... For everyone else...PSA: DO NOT look to political leaders with no medical background for your medical advice
- For me...officially the lowest O2 sat on room air in a #COVID19 patient who was awake and talking No respiratory distress No increased work of breathing No AMS #silenthypoxemia This is such a humbling disease!!! #COVID19FOAM
- Lung Injury Ventilation & ARDSnet...I am not an Intensivist...I am a frontline ED doc...wanted to create a useful aide for myself for when I am on shift...TY @emcrit for peer review...hope this helps others (feedback welcome) rebelem.com/covid-19-airwa… #COVID19FOAM #growthmindset
- I agree with @cameronks we need to stop intubating patients early in #COVID19 disease course...these patients need O2 not pressure...putting them on ventilators will trash their lungs...this is not ARDS...these patients act more like HAPE #COVID19FOAM
- Sitting here on my 10th overnight shift in a row and thinking...What other industry functions like American medicine today? None that I can think of...the system is asking me to be more resilient...but it is the system that is broken?
- Never thought I could learn so much about masks...hope this helps... #COVID19 #growthmindset #FOAMed #COVID19FOAM rebelem.com/covid-19-preve…
- Most of the research thus far on treatment in #COVID19 seem to be targeting the wrong timeframe of disease...the point is to start treatment prior to hyperinflammation...would like to see more studies target earlier timeframe of disease #COVID19FOAM
- Acute Decompensated HF: Time Critical Interventions via @amalmattu at #ACEP20 -Morphine-> No role -Diuretics-> No immediate effect -Nitrates-> High-dose (Initial 200-400mcg/min) -ACEI-> If don't tolerate NTG (SL Captopril, IV Enalaprilat) -NIV-> Use early (Reduced intubation)
- COVID19 is NOT "Typical" ARDS Pts on CPAP + resp distress should be intubated early High PEEP results in severe HD impairment & fluid retention MV buys time...Do with lowest possible PEEP & gentle ventilation More O2, Less Pressure atsjournals.org/doi/abs/10.116… #COVID19FOAM
- I cried for the 1st time in 20yrs yesterday. I cried hard for 5hrs straight. I am not embarrassed & happy that it happened. In a society where we are expected to be strong all the time I am here to tell you...there is no weakness in being open about mental health #RezaieStrong
