Somehow they manage to make the pharmacy's keflex taste like vanilla, while hospital keflex is stuck tasting like chalk. Seems like this should be a high priority QI project... #MedTwitter

A great morning learning about the management of neurologic emergencies. Our multi-disciplinary SIM curriculum is another great aspect of the @UCalgaryEM residency program. @CalgaryEMres

Why are we still comparing drugs to placebo when there are many evidence based therapeutic options that could be considered standard or care? Tylenol is also superior to placebo in RCTs and has a much more favourable side effect profile.

Time for some positivity: I’ve been 1 in 2 call for the past two weeks. I’ve never seen physicians from different specialties have each other’s backs like this. Especially thankful for our incredible colleagues @UCalgaryEM who are the frontline soldiers in this. #COVID19AB

So much hand-wringing around which atrial fibrillation patients should be cardioverted in the ED, and which require anticoagulation. The Canadians have been leading on this for years. Follow them. cambridge.org/core/journals/…
