Most fluid problems aren’t “preload” problems – they’re impedance problems. @icmteaching’s Part 3 shows how venous return and the heart move together, and why the system equilibrates rather than being driven by one side alone.
🧩 Part 3 – Why you usually can’t move one curve without the other 1️⃣ So far, we’ve treated the cardiac and venous return curves as two lines that meet. In theory, you can move one without the other – and sometimes that’s true. But in physiology, they almost always move together – because they share the same inlet.

My heartfelt thanks to MPs who stayed beyond midnight to discuss Baby Loss Awareness Week and, most of all, the families who shared their stories with us - including colleagues. I wish words could do you justice, but I know that it will be actions that count.
"What should have been a moment of joy became a terrifying ordeal." @WesStreeting reflects on the experiences of families who lost babies after failures in NHS maternity care. #BabyLossAwarenessWeek

If you’re a healthcare worker, you could catch and spread flu to vulnerable patients. Protect yourself, your patients, and your colleagues this winter. Get your flu vaccination as soon as you’re offered it.
