How to tackle medical misinformation:

• Teaching critical thinking skills earlier in life
• Pre-warning patients against misinformation
• Step back; encouraging genuine breaks from the noise
• Acknowledge scientific consensus

After you can work as generalist, or go to residency; honestly I wouldn’t change anything, a very fulfilling career 😊

Our medical school (in Colombia) was 6 years plus one year internship, and clinical stages started on the second half of 3rd year; a lots of hands on, internship was interesting and busy, and afterwards a rural year to be able to get our license.

Very personal opinion as I started medical school at age 15 and turned 16 few months in, I was traumatized already by the nuns in high school; if anything, medical school (and living for first time out of my house) help me to mature and become a very compassionate human being

As #prehabilitation becomes standard practice, more research is required to address the barriers to #adherence. Optimising definitions of adherence and improving reporting quality can be the first step

Prehabilitation is hypothesised to play an important role in optimising postoperative outcomes. However, achieving high adherence can be challenging. Our objectives were to synthesise current…

ACOG reaffirms that acetaminophen is safe for managing pain and fever during pregnancy. No reputable studies support suggestions like those in HHS’s recent announcement linking acetaminophen use in pregnancy to autism; in fact, high-quality studies show no such risk. https://bit.ly/47Wxc59

In this study, the in-hospital mortality rate was 0.3% for elective major surgery, whereas among those who were inpatient preoperatively or undergoing nonelective procedures, it was nearly eightfold higher (2.3%). How can we intervene before clinical deterioration? #AnSky #MedSky
