Paper on multimorbidity x surgery now launched in @Anaes_Journal
Key messages
π1-in-2 patients undergoing major surgery have multimorbidity
πmultimorbidity associated with higher mortality
πCurrent perioperative models not associated with improved outcomes for patients with multimorbidity
Next steps
π¨Different strategies needed to address patients with multimorbidity
π¨ need for integrated care solutions using a health systems approach
π¨global relevance and impact
Thought-provoking talk by @mkphull on equipoise in research π¬ thinking about our own biases when recruiting patients for clinical trials π

That feeling, when a decadeβs work is finally published! Grateful for everyone, patients, relatives, staff, collaborators that we can show that there is indeed a way to separate sepsis from non-infectious causes of organ dysfunction using biomarkers frontiersin.org/articles/10.β¦

πThis paper from Slingo and Slingo gives anaesthetists a framework to make informed choices founded on climate science and calls for attention to be refocused on the urgent need to reduce the real carbon dioxide emissions associated with healthcare.

@mkphull has suggested we need to find out why underserved groups are hard to reach and get involved in PPI. And maybe change our approach.
Rather than just approaching for research, create advisory groups that can provide input on both research and care.

Well done Bradley and Leanne our ACCPs completed masters graduation. One was our anaesthetic nurse and one was our own physio and now valuable members of the critical care team. Really proud of them. @docrajesh21
