“We are playing a team game, and they are still testing us as solo athletes.” Dr Jeff Drazen, editor of NEJM, on continuing certification & assessment in medicine. Thought provoking! @KLIC_SF @KPMedSchool @KPShare #MedEd @theMedEdGuru @ZivTali @ucsfklic

(2/2) When doing nerve blocks, also avoid LAST (local anesthetic systemic toxicity) by: -incremental injections of 3-5 mL at a time -use nomogram to dose your local anesthetic safely: aliem.com/2014/06/pv-card-lo… #PRFest19
Superficial cervical plexus block uses: -laceration to the helix or lobule of ear -laceration in submandibular region, adjacent to angle of mandible -placement of IJ vein central line . . . and may have some benefit for clavicle fractures #PRFest19
