The triangle of change - does this resonate with you or with some of the patients you have met? Do you have the tools to make a sustainable change? #wpoms2024

Very excited to have @ChimpParadoxAMC very own Dr Sarah Caddy talking today. She looks at how we can use these tools to manage our patients behaviours and anxieties 🐵 #wpoms2024

Do you look at the RV function on the ECHO report? Dr Corbin highlights the importance of this as an independent risk factor for MACE after surgery. #wpoms2024 @IPOMS4 @CPOC_News @PeriopMedUCL

Dr Ash Corbin giving a great update on perioperative ECHO use - is this something you use within your practice? Is there a role in the postoperative phase? #wpoms2024

Thank you to Claire Frank - pharmacist at @BetsiCadwaladr for highlighting the really useful ‘Perioperative Medicine Handbook’ - what a fantastically helpful resource! #wpoms2024 periop-handbook.ukclinicalph…

GLP-1 Receptor Agonists - should they be held perioperatively? Do they slow gastric emptying? Is this significant? #wpoms2024

Perioperative hypotension - where are we now? Should we be thinking more about ‘perfusion pressure’ rather than hypotension? #wpoms2024
