Neurologic injury in children on #ECMO: in patients who received CT & MRI within 15 days, CT had 100% PPV for significant injury. MRI improved identification of smaller ischemic lesions and micro-hemorrhages compared to CT. #FOAMcc on @asaiojournal 🖇️ rebrand.ly/5f6dbp7

Today’s Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade means that the once Constitutionally protected right to access an abortion is no longer guaranteed nationwide. 1/3

👶 Our #PedsCoVID admissions now rival our adult colleagues. Hitting records, w/30% in critical care. Kids rely on adults they trust. And we are letting them down. This is Infuriating. #StepUpGrownUps #Breathe
Three of my favorite things: Baby yawns, puppy sighs and kitten purrs ❤️

It’s #Simulation boot camp time with the new @UTSWPedsCCM fellows! 4 fellows, 2 days, 16 hours of sim at @SimUtsw. We create a safe learning space, but anything can happen in sim with @AMcMichaelMD and me. Not all sim is mock codes. #medsim #MedEd #PedsICU

While I may be the first woman in this office, I will not be the last—because every little girl watching tonight sees that this is a country of possibilities.

This is unacceptable. Nothing to be proud of in Texas as #1 in uninsured children, well above all other states. #TXLedge should start listening to child health experts recommending policy changes to address this. #VOTE #votekids #putkids1st
Why did so many children lose health insurance at a time they should have been gaining? New story by @sangrkatz @abbygoodnough takes a closer look at policies that are negatively impacting childrens' health and well-being. nytimes.com/2020/10/09/upsho…

Hey incoming interns, don’t pay any attention to July 1st doomsday tweets. I was an ophthalmology intern who started on an ICU rotation and I didn’t kill or maim anybody. In fact, at times I made people BETTER. It was wild. You’ll do great.

As a doctor Ive seen crazy things. Saw cardiac arrest due to Imodium toxicity. Coded an aortic dissection patient in an elevator while elevator was stuck. Saw a gunshot victim dropped out of a rolling car at the hospital entrance. But Ive never once seen a mask cause hypoxia.

THIS.
Improving social determinants right now would save more lives than any new drug or device. Covid doesn’t need a newer vent. Cardiology doesn’t need another beta blocker. What we need is massive transformations in health inequality, socioeconomic disparities, and health access.

Feeling all the nostalgia today as we welcome our new interns! I just have to give a shoutout to my first senior @AnnYoungMD. She’s still one of the best doctors I’ve ever worked with. Thank you for your patience and kindness. #isthistoomuchtylenol
