Gabapentin is often prescribed after surgery to prevent/treat pain-Faith based belief it is safer than opiods. Here is more evidence it is not helpful and may be harmful ja.ma/3LrVfMb @JAMAInternalMed

What can we learn?
That dying is inevitable, recognisable, describable, and that we can prepare for it. The Queen had clearly planned ahead.
That at the edge of life, we can still enjoy love, and peace, and companions.
That we need to get familiar with dying.

As a Geriatrician and a fellow human, what an example of positive ageing & and what a way to go; at home, with family, comfortably, quickly and enjoying life up until your final days.
What a woman.

Our latest research: death, length of stay, readmissions all linked to how we deliver hip fracture care. Many opportunities for QI work across the UK. Shows value of NHFD audit tinyurl.com/5afp9z3r

New editorial @BJSurgery
-Detecting mild-to-moderate #frailty should lead to proactive risk management, not complete avoidance of surgery
-Severe frailty: think care v cure
-Surgeons should build collaborative services w/ colleagues specialized in frailty

Geriatricians are artisans, treating a frail patient is like repairing an antique Rolex watch, each cog precisely and carefully aligned. When you come along and slap the patient on Bendroflumethiazide, its like attaching a Casio strap.

🤔 Unless high suspicion of unstable cervical spine injury, put the hard collars in the bin and allow older people to sit up in the ED department ASAP; long waits lying flat in collar = Pneumonia, delirium, pain, pressure sores, dysphagia, death 🤷🏼♂️
