I present to you, the Blood Hell SALAD. We're working on the recipe to share, but we used #TrueClot from @LunaInc_Labs. A huge shout out to @jducanto for filming and allowing us to really muck up the airway. #SALAD #BloodHellSALAD

Congratulations to all! What a great combination to improve simulation fidelity.
Hot off the press from Chadason et al. & @ProtectedAirway Techniques for simulating airway contamination during cadaveric airway training. Kudos to the first author paramedic Chadason! @le_chadd

@_JaceMullen throwing some truth bombs that I haven't been able to articulate. A great way to give a great hand off.
@le_chadd One thing we don’t talk about is that it’s really like three reports. The first report to the whole room. Age, story, what you did. Short and just what they need to get to work. Then to the attending doc or trauma surgeon, I’ll add in some color, answer questions…

Woah, this is a game changer for ACS patients and care!
For the first time in history, #ESC merges ST-elevation ACS and non-ST elevation ACS guidelines! #ECG at presentation is a WORKING diagnosis, final diagnosis has to be corrected upon angiography. An important step towards the occlusion myocardial infarction era recognizing the underlying pathology in these patients.
