There’s a baby at #SydneyOHCA. This is brilliant, not least because it reminds me of my now-toddler learning about ECMO at #ICSSOA in Birmingham back in Dec 2019

Sepsis hysteria… statement of the trip for me from Mervyn #ICSSOA
Mervyn’s last slide… #ICSSOA
Our very own @Gas_Craic appearing on Mervyn’s slides, tweeting about the sepsis hysteria-phenomenon #ICSSOA
Doubling of the usage of antibiotics in ED’s with all of this hysteria…and no discernible outcome difference! #ICSSOA
Top Influencers of #icssoa 👉 @ICS_updates @iceman_ex @Wilkinsonjonny @aroradrn @strachanjamie www.symplur.com/healthcare-hashtags/icss... Wow!! #ICSSOA has done well!! Not even...
Sepsis hysteria...it’s becoming. A media circus! #ICSSOA
Yes yes yes… it’s all about that vitamin again… part of the Jackson 5 track and it’s also within the mantra of treatment of all emergencies…A, B…forgot the next bit😂 #ICSSOA
Some brilliant #ICSSOA antics last night 🤦♂️ The names have been excluded to protect the innocent😂 #ultrascoundrels #neuroiculegend
Learning so much about cardiogenic shock from this erudite panel. Worth the price of admission (and travel) - thanks #ICSSOA !!
Torbay also do a lot of POC Sim...lines, moving patients, where staff get stuff from, inducting staff etc. All staff engaged from porters to domestics. You get the idea....I am profoundly in awe of their achievements #ICSSOA
GPICS 2 formed the skeleton for ammunition to develop the Torbay unit. Management stopped being able to argue against it..well done @ICS_updates #ICSSOA ICNARC data became key too!! @ICNARC @KathyRowan101
Torbay have a computer in each relatives room so CT scans can be shown to them etc. A picture speaks a thousand words! #ICSSOA Torbay...Torbay...Torbay!!!👏👏👏👏
Visit other ICU’s and make your perfect recipe so you can redesign yours! #ICSSOA
Torbay have a lighting management system and this for EVERY bay!! Day mode and night mode etc....wow!! #ICSSOA
Redeveloping an ICU. Look at this beauty in Torbay. Richard Walker talks is through their redesign. Excellent stuff. #ICSSOA #modelicu
Eye and ear opening stuff https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/24746782/ #ICSSOA
Where do you think The hotspots for noise are on the ICU🤔 You may be surprised!! #ICSSOA onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/anae.14...
High pitched sounds are far more disturbing than the white noise rumbles of the lower pitch sounds (air con, fans etc). Alarms are designed to take advantage of this! For patients!!! #ICSSOA @bhca
Uncomfortable confused stressed frightening alone......just some of the descriptions coming from staff who were placed in the situation of your average ICU patient. And that’s without a poly-pharmaceutical bath of drugs!! #ICSSOA
Ear plugs and eye masks really reduce the chance of delirium. 15-20% won’t tolerate them though. Sensory deprivation not good either. So....change the environment! #ICSSOA https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/28944590/
Even Florence Nightingale talked about noise #ICSSOA www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.latimes.com/ar...
Human inflammatory cascades are circadian. There are peaks and troughs throughout the day. The same goes for efficacy of anti inflammatory drugs. #ICSSOA
Excellent session coming up on noise, circadian rhythms and the Torbay experience. #ICSSOA Come and join us!
