In recently published research, Deepika Mohan, Galen Switzer, Baruch Fischhoff, Jonathan Elmer, Kimberly J. Rak, Jacqueline L. Barnes, and Douglas B. White evaluate a low-cost, scalable simulation method to evaluate physician non-adherence to guidelines. journals.plos.org/plosone/ar…

Congratulations to @MCapogrosso, @rm_defreitas, @shovanbhatia, & our colleagues on this new @NatureMedicine study. A feasibility trial shows cervical spinal cord stimulation can safely improve upper-limb strength, function, & spasticity in people with arm hemiparesis after stroke. Read the study here: nature.com/articles/s41591-0…

Distinct #ICP and #PbtO2 trajectories may exist after #CardiacArrest. Can we distinguish subtypes of pathology that could respond to targeted treatments? @NeurocritCareJ rdcu.be/fmkrv

In this large Canadian trial whole brain CTP did not reach the respecified threshold of 98% sensitivity (94%) and specificity (92%) for brain death. Close but no cigar. "Can still be used as an ancillary rather than stand-alone test" jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…

Inspiring 3 days in Ann Arbor at #MaxHarryWeillInstitute for #WolfCreekXVIII. This is a meeting I’ve dreamed of attending for years- to learn from the Resuscitation giants- and to network with phenomenal colleagues. I return home both inspired and appreciative of you all! šŸ«€šŸ§

When nothing in the world makes sense, and you're in an alternate reality where all the rules are different and the simple becomes the impossible, look at this humorous version of the MOCA that is used to screen for #dementia. Is that a lemur or a spider monkey?

People who spend their careers writing NIH grants are the literal opposite of grifters. It is a soul-sucking, brutal process. The scientists don’t get rich when they get funded. Their salary doesn’t change. They do it for science. For patients. You know, to make šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡øhealthy.
