🔐Regional anaesthesia may be key during this pandemic, as it reduces the need for general anaesthesia and the associated risk from aerosol-generating procedures. @ropivacaine @rakesh6282 @ruthi_landau @elboghdadly, @NarouzeMD @KalagaraHari #FOAMed 🔗onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Enjoyed hosting the first ever @NBTAnaesthesia Zoom Block Party! Hopefully a decent substitute for socially-too-close scanning practice. This party covered the @RegionalAnaesUK lower limb #planAblocks. Promise I was wearing a party shirt #regionalanaesthesia #blockparty #nbt

Had a wonderful time at the first Block Party @NBTAnaesthesia yesterday, focused on the “Plan A” @RegionalAnaesUK upper limb blocks. Looking forward to the next one in April... party frocks and hats essential! #planAblocks #regionalanaesthesia #NBT

Thanks to Matt for organising ‘Block Party’ regional training - it’s gone down very well with our trainees #planAblocks

Enjoyed listening to @TruroGasSD make a very appealing case for working in Cornwall, prioritising wellbeing, flexibility and balance... but it was the coffee machine that clinched it! #CornwallAnaesthesia #NTAM @NTAMOrganisers

Excellent stuff (any excuse to get out the ultrasound!) and couldn’t agree more that it’s absolutely key to scan and get used to normal anatomy before mastering the tricky ones. Same with vascular access! #vascularaccess #theaccesscourse
I've been wanting to produce this for a while and here it is - my approach to using ultrasound imaging to guide LP/spinal anesthesia in patients with scoliotic deformities. Please share if you think it's useful. youtu.be/AWcWsow-oL4

I remember the bane of my trainee life was those middle of the night cannulation requests... @theaccesscourse has devised a course to teach all junior doctors about our secret weapon to successful cannulation... @AAGBI @AAGBI_GAT how about helping them expand with a workshop?
