Long overdue, grateful for the opportunity to contribute to this important work. These policies and this level of support need to be standardized across all surgical training programs and work environments. Congratulations to the @AmCollSurgeons for leading on this.
Special shout to my indefatigable partner in crime, @SusanPoriesMD without who this couldn’t happen, and others on this committee @JFreischlag @nganttmd @JuliaColemanMD @YueyungHu @dreskim @SidhuGang @thefancysurgeon @alexismoren2 @alemelemd… many others: Drs Keith Lillemoe, Valentin Nfonsam, Tanaz Ferzandi, Jonathan Dort, Dee Daz, Amy Gore, Elizabeth Blair, Rachel Morris, Alisha Reiss

.@BehindTheKnife .@DissanaikeMD "I'm incredibly grateful for the opportunity to spread the word about the importance of prioritizing circulation in patients with exsanguinating injuries. By raising awareness and advocating for early intervention, we can save lives and improve outcomes. Let's make sure this critical information reaches every corner of the medical community! #PatientCare #CirculationMatters #SaveLives"
Today in your👂: Drs. @pferrada1 and @DissanaikeMD chat with BTK fellows Jon Williams and @clarkninam about whether it's time for a paradigm shift toward a circulation-first approach to trauma resuscitation! behindtheknife.org/podcast/c…

Reviewed VATS entry, camera skills, stapling, dissecting LN with juniors. We also simulated converting emergently to thoracotomy. Performed a pericardial window. Repaired a stab wound near the LAD with mattress suturing. Placed a foley in an RV injury and simulated control/repair
Today @tevanveen set up a wet lab with cadavers for all things Cardiothoracic. We were able to perform VATS, mobilize the lung, view the anatomy, resect, and perform exposure procedures and simulations in our state of the art ASTEC facility.
