Alternate way to put it: IPC improves QoL as much as conventional chest drain/pleurodesis; as also shown in TIME-2 & AMPLE-1 with different instruments of assessment. Key message: choose IPC vs chest drain on other considerations eg procedure avoidance etc. @d33pan @Charlies_Resp

Lovely EMG data from @d33pan pre and post therapeutic pleural aspiration. Neural respiratory drive is high pre-drainage - higher than for many COPD patients. Mostly figures improves after fluid removal, but small numbers. Interesting work. #PRD2021 @UKPleura

Is it just me, or is this vaguely reminiscent of a medical student at their first conference presenting a poster... both in terms of delivery and the quality of analysis. Actually, I apologize future medics, I know that YOU atleast appreciate that the denominator matters!
