Don’t be scared to use the word or words, “Neonatal Sepsis” when dealing with a sick neonate. It’s more common than you think so don’t let the Neonate and Neonatal Sepsis slip through your fingers. #ThinkSepsis #PGDipEC

Fever or Hypothermia, Respiratory Distress, Poor Perfusion and Neurological signs are all red flags with sick neonates. Think or consider a possibility of Neonatal Sepsis. #ThinkSepsis #PGDipEC
Neonatal Sepsis is one of the big killers of a neonates from 28 days and younger. Look out for the signs of sepsis when assessing sick neonates. #ThinkSepsis #PGDipEC
Nutrition allows for two types of growth, one being child growth and two being the growth of countries. Empower our healthcare workers to nourish pregnant moms and their new borns and strive for the 1000 days nutrition standard.#ChildNutritionForEmergencyCare #PGDipEC

1000 days, from conception until 2 years old is all it takes to prevent stunting and aid in a child growing into a healthy adult. Enough Vitamin A, Zinc and encouraged breast feeding allows for this all to ensure good development. #ChildNutritionForEmergencyCare #PGDipEC

In 2012, 6.6 million children died under the age of 5 years old. What is the most scary about that number is that nearly 45% was due to malnutrition. Children aren’t eating and so we are starving their futures. #ChildNutritionForEmergencyCare #PGDipEC

20-30 degrees head of bed elevation intubations is my groove.
Definitely the hill I’m prepared to die on too.
- better laryngoscopy view
- less complications
- more comfortable for most patients
- better for FRC
- likely less passive regurgitation up hill
And actually some EBM

Accident victims can wait years for payment from the #RoadAccidentFund as desperate attorneys attach the fund’s furniture, computers and its bank account just to get their money. That's #CarteBlanche tonight at 7pm on @MNet channel 101. @MasaKekana nitter.gq/carteblanchetv/status/…

Lorsque les travailleurs de la santé s'infectent en suivant à la lettre les procédures "gouttelettes", c'est parce que la transmission est aérienne et qu'il faut exiger de meilleurs masques et monitorer la ventilation en temps réel avec un capteur de CO2.

We have this exact setup as standard vascular access for OHCA. 7Fr vein, 4Fr artery. Very easy to handle the post ROSC patient with arterial monitoring, especially during extrication from scene to transport vehicle. – at Karlstad, Sverige
