OTSC Leasons:
1. Shallow Deployment
While many ulcer bases can be suctioned into the OTSC cap, turning the wheel to pull the tripwire is a 3 handed job. You must coordinate with tech and care must be taken to not lose your suction lest a shallow deployment.

More evidence that outdated 'one-size-fits-all' scope design is🔑target for innovation:
"Participants w/larger hands were more proficient w/ the larger controller despite being less dexterous than their counterparts"

Ergonomics training is an essential component of a comprehensive curriculum in endoscopy. Endoscopy trainees should get ergonomics training early in fellowship. 📄Read the ASGE Core curriculum for ergonomics in endoscopy 👉sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

For nearly 2 weeks, we've been stuck at 50K new cases daily
in that time, we've vaccinated an additional 20M Americans
So why flat?
Its a race between vaccinations and variants
And we're running even
Opening up too fast helps the variants
I want vaccinations to win

Thank you @VABostonHC for organizing today’s vaccine clinic at @UrbanEdgeBoston! The VA is doing a great job getting #veterans vaccinated!
