there's been LOTS of back-and-forth about vaso in sepsis (e.g., these two 2025 review articles reach totally different conclusions! Lajoye is correct IMHO) TLDR: there is no simple answer; personalize tx 🌌 my current take on vaso in sepsis is here https://t.co/uLT6mpfJrG

. @icmteaching @khaycock2 @ArgaizR Have you seen this notching/systolic spike accentuation in patients with cirrhosis? I think it's a manifestation of intense renal vasoconstriction (as in HRS pathophysiology +/- other similar insults).

Echocardiography is one of the most complex medical image sets to analyze, with multiple views + cardiac motion. A new @Nature paper shows how A.I. can do that and provide accurate reports @David_Ouyang https://t.co/IMxQYmCW5C

🧵 HYPOXEMIA: The ICU Masterclass 1️⃣ Start with the foundation Hypoxemia = low PaO2 in arterial blood (mmHg). Hypoxia = low oxygen at tissues. A patient can have SpO2 99, Hb 5 and lactate 7. This is hypoxia despite normal saturation. ❓ SpO2 98 but lactate rising. What

I still see 0ּּ·9% sodium chloride being used for resuscitation, and amazingly even for maintenance fluid. Let’s take a look at one important aspect of that. The huge salt burden in just one litre.

❓What does this clip show? Answer: Large circumferential pericardial effusion (subcostal view). 🧠 Learning tip: Don’t wait for textbook tamponade. Before hypotension or tachycardia appear — can you already recognize the RA or RV collapse that signals rising pericardial

Thank you @BharatJagiasi sir for busting this myth! Cerebral vasospasm leads to secondary brain injury in various clinical conditions apart from sub-arachnoid hemorrhage. It's important to know about this complication and remain vigilant to prevent catastrophic ischemia/infarcts.

1️⃣ We can remove fluid at rates up to 12 mL/kg/h and blood pressure often holds. That limit isn’t arbitrary – it comes from dialysis data showing steep rises in hypotension and mortality above it. It marks the upper boundary of how fast plasma can be refilled from the
