When stratified by triage category, First Nations people had both higher admission rates and worse outcomes then the general population. An eye opening article.

EU medicines agency quits X, moves to Bluesky The European Medicines Agency (EMA) said on Monday it would no longer post on X and would use rival Bluesky instead, becoming the latest organisation to quit a social media platform that some have criticised for its content.

Let Mr 4 sleep from 4-6 this afternoon because it was convienient for me, and now paying the price for past Me’s poor life choices. Will I learn from this? History would suggest not. Luckily he’s fricken adorable, like a human labrador puppy.

Rescued robot vacuum from peril only for him to determinedly plunge straight back in. So basically another toddler in the house.

It’s nice here. 😊

The first pertussis vaccine can be given at 6 weeks in Australia. My understanding (not including this case) was that there had not been a death of an infant from pertussis whose mother had had a 3rd trimester jab, but have not confirmed this.

This is devastating news.

In my “I can definitely fit one more plant in the cargo bike” era. Hop in besties!

Gosh I’m on brand tonight. Home from work (late) at 11.48pm, eating leftover cake while logging into 11 year old’s ipad to maintain his Duolingo streak while he’s on school camp. Ich bein ine gutte mama.

Welcome to another Australian medical institution! 😊 #medsky

It is now indisputable that pregnant women needing emergency care are being allowed to die in states that have banned & criminalized abortion

Yet somehow it’s fine to ask 🤰 trainees / faculty to travel to these states for medical conferences or miss out on professional opportunities? #idsky #medsky

It’s a war on anyone who can get pregnant.

POV: you’re 4 years old, there’s a minor flood in your back yard, and you find a frog and give him a ride on your toy boat. Does it get any better?
For the amphibiophiles, it’s a striped marsh frog.

Well they had me at brainworms…

It was the increasing amount of open Holocaust denial that was the tipping point in me leaving X.

Platforms come and go.

Relationships grow.

We didn’t go to a particular platform for the platform itself. It was about the community. Most will find a new platform that meets their needs.

And, look who I just found joining the Defectors- my dad! He had 15k+ followers on Twitter built through genuine engagement and pushing back against Trumpism and is now starting from scratch, so if you like left leaning, poetry writing, rugby tragics who will always reply to you, give him a follow!

Welcome… with the magnanimous confidence of a grade 1 kid showing a preppie around the school playground…

Delighted to see you here! Let the #medtwitter exodus continue…

Oh this is so lovely. So clean and unpolluted.
Like taking a drive out from the smog of the city, climbing to the top of a hillock and sharing the vista with old friends and new.
Raising a glass of hope in the sunshine of sharing.

Was… was that a challenge?

I kind of enjoy emptying the chamber in my stick vacuum and marveling at all that fluffy filth, so
I guess that’s similar?

Hello from the official Australian and New Zealand College of Anaesthetists (ANZCA) Blue Sky account! We're one of the largest specialist medical colleges in Australia and New Zealand, and the region's foremost authority on #anaesthesia, #painmedicine and #perioperativemedicine.

Great reflection, thanks for sharing. Hard agree on maintaining ownership of resus and critically ill patients within ED. Our hospital has introduced a formal program where FACEMs spend regular time in theatre to maintain airway proficiency, which has helped us kept that expertise within ED.

Happy to share an invited article I wrote looking at what
#EM in Australasia can learn from the #NHS for Emergency Medicine Australasia.

This was part of a discussion on the future of emergency care in Australasia in the EMA.
