Whole blood in trauma has generated enormous interest. Today, @SWiFT_trial in @NEJM provides the clearest randomised evidence so far on whether prehospital whole blood improves outcomes in life-threatening traumatic haemorrhage: tinyurl.com/SWiFTNEJM

A major UK study has revealed that the financial burden of hip fractures extends beyond hospital walls, with social care costs often matching or exceeding medical treatment.

You get asked to do a therapeutic pleural tap for this patient. This is not that difficult but still very important to recognise.

In the WHiTE study, patients treated for extracapsular #hip #fractures with long cephalomedullary nails had equivalent recovery of quality of life compared with short cephalomedullary nails. @gohenlin @TraumaDataDoc @xlgriffin @ProfJACook @Oxford_Trauma ow.ly/vFqc50XKge4

[1/16] Deeply flawed and completely misleading modelling from Medifintech’s own @gdcuk Graham Crossley at @Quilter. Here's why the £125k pension headline is erroneous, misleading, and deeply flawed 👇

In the WHiTE study, patients with a complication after their hip fracture had worse quality of life & higher risk of death. Read last month's most downloaded paper from the #BJJ. #Fracture @gohenlin @TraumaDataDoc @xlgriffin @ProfJACook @Oxford_Trauma ow.ly/TTYv50XuGHs

Patient-related factors such as increasing age, male sex & higher comorbidity were associated with complications, which may explain the higher mortality & worse recovery in these groups. @gohenlin @TraumaDataDoc @xlgriffin @ProfJACook @Oxford_Trauma ow.ly/yOva50X00Ye

Regional anaesthesia for hip fracture "Ultimately, the aim should not be to chase the ‘perfect’ block, but to find a patient-centred, pragmatic approach that delivers timely and lasting analgesia, minimises harm and can be scaled up for delivery by generalist clinicians in the acute setting." @126liam @TraumaDataDoc #anaesthesia #pain #regionalanaesthesia #regionalanesthesia #MedTwitter doi.org/10.1111/anae.16734
