Even on lists where I can't find a block, I can still find an excuse to scan! Here's 4 gastric POCUS scans. Can you pick which patient was taking Mounjaro? Assuming ASA2, lithotomy, 30 min cases. How are you going to anaesthetise them? LMA? ETT? Spinal? https://t.co/D9defKS8sO

AI is not ready to perform evidence based reviews LLM demonstrates “sycophancy”: the generation of responses that align with user prompts and expectations, rather than rigorous factual accuracy See 👇 https://t.co/dnwhgj5qXH

How much do you trust AI searches We asked the question does perioperative methadone reduce chronic post surgical pain Some convincing lies reported. We fact checked and got it to admit the lies. Article 👇 https://t.co/dnwhgj5YNf

Such great videos by @mick_kerr
Been a while between videos. Here's a two parter looking at the minimum required anatomy for an interscalene block. https://t.co/pKk162Jxmi

Couldn't agree more @EMARIANOMD All my patients having a total shoulder replacement or shoulder orif get a catheter + multimodal I definitely notice a huge difference with occasional catheter dislodgement on Day 1 or 2 post op
Isn't it time to stop making excuses and start advocating for continuous interscalene brachial plexus blocks for patients who undergo shoulder surgery? https://t.co/3NUXCwsBaX

@ShivRoyal @Steve_Coppens @BlockIt_Hot_Pod @amit_pawa @jeffgadsden @nelkassabany @jodyleng @Ropivacaine @KalagaraHari @James_Kim_MD @BryantTranMD Ah yes, quite the study design: "Patients received either a SI [single-injection] or CIC [continuous catheter] preoperatively based on surgeon preference." No blinding, no randomization... biased, you think? 🤔

Loved the article on intrathecal lidocaine @jeffgadsden Got us thinking 1. 2% lidocaine often mislabeled as isobaric when it's hypobaric e.g.xylocaine 2. There's never been a reported case of TNS with hypobaric lidocaine https://t.co/kA4Fee5Luw

Absolutely @jeffgadsden it's a routine part of my arthroplasty practice! 👏 One of the best articles of 2025 in RA
Would you do a lidocaine spinal in 2025? When I talk to other anesthesiologists, the answer is not clear cut...🤔 #LidoSpinal #TNS @EMARIANOMD @amit_pawa @ASRA_Society @RAPMOnline @Assoc_Anaes @GongGasGirl @Ron_George @AmyPearsonMD @Wilkinsonjonny @ESRA_Society
