If I’ve learned anything from airway elective so far, it’s that anesthesia attendings have the jaw-thrusting finger strength of elite rock climbers..

Really wonderful write-up in the @nytimes today about EVT. I’ve had the privilege of seeing some incredible outcomes following thrombectomy, although more work is needed to get as many people access to treatment as possible. nytimes.com/2023/03/01/magaz… @NguyenThanhMD @AbdalkaderMD

Lessons learned from a neurologist after first month in the MICU: 1- Lots of critical care left to learn, 2- Ultrasound is super fun, 3- Running rounds is scary but necessary. Looking forward to month 2 back in NCC!
