Another excellent thread on surgical skills. These basic techniques really make a difference and are also applicable to EM/PHEM training
🧡regarding some techniques for reloading the needle holder for the next suture throw. In particular: the methods for doing this one-handed (without your forceps), why you would want to be able to do this, how to do it, and how to adjust the needle without grabbing it. (1/ )

Thanks for the kind words about β€œNHS, Who Cares?” Things are tough right now. But if Covid taught me anything at all, it was that the people who work for the #NHS - properly invested in & supported - can deal with absolutely anything you throw at them. tdy.lol/hgTFJ

Sensitivity and specificity are crucial concepts, not just when we're appraising journal articles, but also in our daily practice. Greg Yates & I discussed this in the latest @stemlyns Critical Appraisal Nugget... stemlynsblog.org/critical-ap…
