Teenager: "I think these pants need a wash. I sat down on the couch in the common room and now there's a brown stain." "I'm pretty sure there was some chocolate where I sat..... it tasted like chocolate anyway."

It's that time of year when most of the NHMRC / MRFF grants are submitted, and time for a period of reflection before trying again next year. Let's take a quick look at the odds of success... Remember - most applicants are serious researchers, many have PhDs and impressive track records.

It takes a system to save a life in cardiac arrest. I’m proud to have played a small part in this paper in The MJA which shows how survival has incrementally improved in Victoria over 25 years and highlights the value of a registry. If you don’t measure, you can’t improve 🤓 🚑

How common is this phenomenon? Child presents to ED with fever and tachycardia. Appears comfortable. **needs** treatment for tachycardia because vital signs are "abnormal" and the child is "breaching" the local early warning tool Given TWO different antipyretics (usually paracetamol + ibuprofen)

Honey, stop what you're doing, new hyponatremia research just dropped! What's it say? It looks like slow correction is associated with worse outcomes, like death and length of stay! Was it just a small study? No, it was a meta-analysis of almost 12,000 patients! jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...
