Using #3DPrinted task trainers to enhance realism in a skills and #medicalsimulation day for ICU, ED and transport teams. Had a great time, broke a few ribs and learned valuable lessons with Andrew Dixon and @Gomander

Marking #PulmonaryHypertensionDay by 3D printing the heart and Potts shunt of this incredible kid. I hope that #3Dprinting can help better educate all of us about the heart. #3DHeartProject @UAlberta_FoMD @lynsonnenberg @CodyWesley8
Today marks World Pulmonary Hypertension Day. It’s a rare condition, where the pressure in the blood vessels leading from the heart to the lungs is too high. One patient at the Stollery Children’s Hospital is getting some hands-on learning about it.

Looking at 3D printing masks. Anyone know of groups who have developed and tested 3D -printed N95 masks? Anyone in Edmonton doing this? Any groups in Canada? #COVID19 #PPE

Mason and his mom are so inspiring. Amazing to meet them today. #3DHeartProject
An 8-year-old transplant recipient had the chance to see a 3-D model of his damaged heart. As @SaroltaCityNews reports, the boy’s mother says this has given her son a sense of empowerment, as he always wanted to know what was wrong with his old heart. @StolleryKids @UAlberta #yeg

#3DHeartProject made a boy's wish come true by giving him 3D printed models of his heart today. One shows how blood and oxygen flows, printed on Elko Engineering Garage's Stratasys J750, 1 of 3 in Canada. The other a Tie Fighter! @CodyWesley8 @UAIberta @StolleryKids @GiveToUHF

#3DHeartProject Had the privilege of giving Mason, 8, two 3D printed models of his heart today. Exciting new projects in the works but need funds! Thanks for the coverage @SuLingGoh @GlobalEdmonton @CBCEdmonton @TravisMcEwanCBC @ctvedmonton @CISNCountry gofundme.com/f/3d-heart-proj…
