Did you see our best practice pathway for testicular torsion earlier this year? We’ve followed up by producing 3 posters for schools, helping to raise awareness among boys and improve timely presentation. Pathway➡️ bit.ly/3HYcfsc Posters➡️bit.ly/3xuIoWk

Wanna know which blocks in ED might require curvilinear ultrasound probe instead? ESP & PENG in some cases due to either the depth/body ESP with curvilinear for multiple rib # recent example (pain down from 10/10 to 3/10 post block) 👇🏽

Interested in coming to Canada and doing a critical care ultrasound fellowship @westernsono ? We would love to have you. Shoot me a DM and we can chat more! Highlights: - 6 months - 1 year (preferred 1 yr) - any training background invited to apply - supervised by @arntfield @john_basmaji and myself - tons of resus / critical care TEE exposure - ++ research opportunities (including the ability to focus this as a research fellowship) --> we are running observational + RCTs in ultrasound I completed this fellowship a while ago and can attest first hand how great it is (over 25 graduated fellows over the past decade). We would love to have you. Pinging some previous fellows too in case they want to highlight their experience: @KiranRikhraj @katiewiskar @HansClausdorff @DCBrotherston @LintnerRivera @msattin4 #medtwitter #foamed #pocus
