Do you know which drugs to stop first in orthostatic hypotension? You might be surprised! The best drug is losartan, says @laramitchdr — and give it at night #BGSconf
Dinner looks amazing! #anzsgm2024
The importance of mobility and getting our patients out of bed. Avoiding hospital related harm is so important for everyone #anzsgm2024
Always dynamic, informative and provocative thank you Ngaire Kerse #anzsgm2024
Next years conference already looks exciting. #anzsgm2024 becomes #anzsgm2025 in Sydney 10-13th June 2025
Don’t forget pelvic floor exercises - these will improve continence in large proportion of women and much lower risk than surgery!

A conference so cool we have DJing keynote speakers and live podcasting @drandyclegg @anzsgm #ANZSGM2024
The legendary Prof Sue Kurrle on the risks of bed rest. She quotes Richard Asher from 1947 “Teach us to live that we may dread/ Unnecessary time in bed/Get people up and we may save/Our patients from an early grave” #ANZSGM2024
I reckon the #anzsgm2024 dance floor outcompeted the #bgsconf dance floor with DJ @drandyclegg
The other DJ Andy C @drandyclegg setting a high bar for future plenary speakers #ANZSGM2024
Our very own DJ @drandycleggar @anzsgm gala dinner Fantastic social evening - really enjoyed it #anzsgm2024
This raises a really important issue - access to specialist health care (in this case mental health) for people in aged care homes. Older people deserve the same access as everyone else in the community, regardless of where they live! abc.net.au/news/2024-03-2…
I’ve been thinking about the future of aged care. Aged care planning currently assumes that future demand for residential care will decline with people preferring care at home. Yet people are increasingly moving into old age with insecure & unaffordable housing. Or homeless

I can only echo those sentiments @edstrivens - congratulations @JacquiCTClose on behalf of @anzsgm! Your achievements are an inspiration to all geriatricians

Frailty is a strong risk factor for #delirium. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/30238970 @GiusepeBellelli @AleMorandi78 @Krockdoc
Awesome thread that resonated with my experience of that stage of my training. Perhaps I’m looking back with rose-tinted glasses; I certainly remember some very tough shifts and the odd rotation with unsupportive consultants, but for me was mostly a very positive time

The Frailty-ADD CRE, via @AusFrailty is offering two early career seed grants of up to AUD$10,000 for research programs that aim to improve outcomes for frail patients in hospital settings. Details, including eligibility: afn.org.au/frailty-add-cr…
So little evidence for strategies to reduce falls in hospital but evidence that it harms both staff and patients, and wastes scarce resources. Let’s shift the conversation from falls to function
Julie Adsett presenting our umbrella review on ward based mobility interventions for medical inpatients. Interventions need to be multi component, multidisciplinary, goal focussed and target those with assistance needs #AAGConf23
At #AAGConf23 we are pleased to continue the @RadioNational Big Ideas Broadcast, this time hosted by @natashamitchell. Guests are @ShannonJarrott Marcus Reilly and Chris Seiboth
