Huge congratulations to the team for getting this initiative off the ground! Proudly representing @SESOrtho @EdinOrthopaedic @RIE_Lothian @RCoANews @RCSEd 👏
***BREAKING NEWS*** The first Project Kuyenda supported regional anaesthesia case happened today and was a success! Incredible work by Adam Paul. Introduced due to the death of a patient from sepsis 2ndary to an open forearm # that couldn’t be debrided as no GA last visit. 👏
