One of the areas I wish I knew more about was the business of medicine. This new column in @asamonitor.bsky.social by Dr. George Tewfik drops some quick knowledge from Dr. Jay Mesrobian about the impact of health care economics in anesthesiology. @asahq.bsky.social @apsf.org

With new residents in the OR, it's time for a reminder about informed consent! Yes, it we do it daily, but it is a skill requires continued refinement. Some great tips for all, including those preparing for the ABA OSCE. @asamonitor.bsky.social @asahq.bsky.social @apsf.org

I'm married to another doctor so a frequent question from students & residents is "how do you do it?" Some good tips in @asamonitor.bsky.social: "my advice is to turn to each other because you will both truly “get it” ...and don't delay your life." @womeninanes.bsky.social‬

Recent advances in transfusion medicine, including pathogen reduction and cold platelet storage, improve blood safety and availability. Despite progress, trauma deaths rose 91% in 20 years, highlighting the need for better resuscitation strategies. buff.ly/LTjBCag @asamonitor.bsky.social

Patient Blood Management programs offer "bloodless" care for patients who can't receive transfusions. Initially for Jehovah's Witnesses, these strategies now benefit all, by lowering transfusion needs, reducing costs, & improving outcomes. @asamonitor.bsky.social @asahq.bsky.social

Unlock the truth about ketamine in @asamonitor.bsky.social! Often misunderstood, it is life-saving in medical settings but dangerous when misused. Stay informed on this powerful anesthetic in this article by Dr. Yu & former @asahq.bsky.social president Dr. Clark.

We've all experienced this...being called to the ED for an airway, only to be scurried away by the ED physicians. How can we work with our ED colleagues to collaborate on trauma airway management ? Read more in @asamonitor.bsky.social
