On this Fathers Day weekend, I can’t stop thinking about all the grieving families who will never be able to celebrate this and other holidays again because their families have been torn apart. #EndGunViolence #Uvalde #BuffaloMassacre #SandyHook

We all know baby art lines are the devil. But when do you place them? All intubated kids? And how do you place arterial lines? Suture always? Angiocath or seldinger? Is your way THE way? If so, make your voice heard. #PedsICU

@jenschuette25 @mommimaya Wonder if the relative lack of negative (is there true actual harm to a board? Maybe additional time to put in board? Skin trauma to patients back?) means this will continue as non-EBM dogma. Interesting stuff! I’m certainly not bored. (I see your pun and raise you two!)

Does your “difficult airway team” always come to you? Or does the patient sometimes go to them? Does everyone have both anesthesia and surgery (ENT, Gen Surg) as part of the team? Or only one? #PedsICU #PedsCICU #Pedshospitalist #PEM #pedsanesth
We love an opportunity to #asktheauthor (a thread) about new scholarly work in the department! 📚🔬🤓 We asked new Lurie CCM faculty #MattRowlandMD about his recent article in @PediatricAnest

@DrRissman Always. One of my favorite things about this job is we get to ask each other for “second opinions” all the time - it’s one of the reasons why it’s so important to work with a team you trust and can be vulnerable around
