Effects of Expiratory Muscle Strength Training on Swallowing in Survivors of Critical Illness: A Protocol for a Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis Background and Aims Post Extubation Dysphagia (PED) is a common consequence of mechanical ventilation. Muscular weakness and atrophy are potential causes. Expiratory Muscle Strength Training (EMST) ...

Expiratory muscle strength training (EMST) has some evidence for improving swallowing in several disease states

Hi folks, can I drive a few more followers to the @sascollective.com account?

That account deserves your follow more than this one.

Merry #RespMas to all who celebrate! @copddoc.bsky.social @revansbreathe.bsky.social @lungsatwork.bsky.social @balrcommunity.bsky.social

Regardless of your thoughts on assisted dying, I think we can all agree that the argument should focus on whether doctors make a legally-binding contract with the sun god Apollo by reciting a 3000 year old Greek poem.

I built and lead a HIU programme and if your unit hasn’t got one, you need one - benefits the patient, benefits the unit, benefits the finances, and can be extremely interesting work

Today's GMC workforce report speaks of doctors "choosing" to find themselves outside of formal training.

For some this is choice, for others a necessity.

Regardless of how someone finds themself in this position, we need to make this somewhere people can have a career and achieve their potential.
