It’s amazing how much of acute care medicine is “we know this condition is bad, but we don’t know if fixing it makes it better, and in fact fixing it may bring on a host of other problems.”

Different family with some slightly older babies visiting our neighborhood this morning

A new CHEST guideline offers recommendations for the transfusion of fresh frozen plasma and platelets in critically ill adults undergoing a variety of common critical care procedures. Read the full guideline: www.chestnet.org/guidelines-a... #CriticalCare #MedSky

The six new Canadian geese continue to thrive!

Hawk versus Dove debate on the use of salbutamol in bronchiolitis. The 'against' speaker cites a great paper from 60 years ago. Learning: 1) Don't fritter away 2) Listen to doctors from 60 years ago. publications.aap.org/pediatrics/a... #PAS2025

Feeling very appreciated!! I didn’t realize this was volunteering 😍 I do this for fun!! @accpchest.bsky.social

This account may be a baby geese appreciation account from now on

The world continues to turn despite of it all

Happy Easter!

Anyone have any idea what this is? I think it heats up. Maybe burning words onto woods?

Good Friday is often a day when we fight demons with strength and love. God bless you today as you do battle.

Yay, Rory!

Wow what a finish!

Jacksonville locals! Looking for a welcoming and inclusive church this Easter season? Come join us this week and on Easter! www.jaxcathedral.org/lent-and-eas...

They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made. -FS Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby, published 4/10/1925.

Looks like this year at #CHEST2025 I’ll be talking about some combination of: - Invasive hemodynamic monitoring - #ThePeoplesVentricle - VA coupling at the bedside - Portopulmonary hypertension See you in Chicago!

📣SCCM Friends📣 It is time! I am proposing a new “Critical Care Nutrition KEG” for @sccmcriticalcare.bsky.social and would appreciate your support. We need to collect 50 signatures to submit the proposal to council. 🚨SCCM Members: Will you please sign? tinyurl.com/56xuh7m5

After more than a year of prep work in our subgroups, finally starting to meet all together to revise @sccmcriticalcare.bsky.social’s Pediatric Surviving Sepsis Guidelines! Exciting to be part of this very smart group and to improve sepsis care in children!

About practically everything in the world, there's nothing you can do. However, about of few things you can do something. Do them.

Got my MMR booster today on the advice of my Infectious Disease colleagues. Measles is back. And it’s only a matter of time before we see kids in the #PedsICU. #Vaccineswork

Aerosolized budesonide and clarithromycin don’t treat measles (it’s a virus- it doesn’t respond to antibiotics). For the head of HHS to be messaging this in the middle of an outbreak that has killed two children is… despicable.

Especially true now.

I stand corrected: MILLIONS protested! #handsoff

As a theology major and doctor, I love the detail on The Pitt that Whitaker was a theology major. Although canonically since he never left Nebraska, that means he went to Creighton, a Jesuit school. Making the most unrealistic part of The Pitt that he could quote scripture!

Fun night for a good cause! Raising money to fund arts education for 2,000 children/year in Jacksonville through the Cathedral Arts Project.

This is a fun chart

Some surprise visitors last night reminding me that beauty can be found if you look, and that nature moves on, generally obvious to our anxieties.

Antigen identified that may finally allow us to determine the cause of Kawasaki’s Disease in Children. Truly amazing. Stan Shulman and that team at Northwestern and Japan have been looking for this for decades. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40122524/
