@heidi_ed @gmcuk @RCollEM @EMTAcommittee We have failed to define the specialty and in doing so protect us and our patients from ever expanding expectations imposed by others that are tangibly growing further from the achievable. That is a fire startlingly recipe for exhaustion and burnout.

Pleased to say we’ve done over 100 thrombectomies since starting 24/7 3 months ago with 40% done outside normal working hours. We’re on course for 350-400 cases by the end of the year. The next steps are improving transfer times and improving TIA and community rehabilitation.

@NephroP The true skill of medicine is knowing the trial results (which are correct for the average patient fitting the trial inclusion criteria) and deciding how to apply this information to the individual in the bed- who may not be average or fit the trial inclusion criteria.

Very sad to hear of the passing of Professor Douglas Chamberlain. He was the founder of the paramedic profession, changed cardiac arrest management with defibs and founded the Resus Council UK. How the Emergency services work currently is down to his work and implementation. RIP
