Homeopathy practitioners believe that imbalance in vital forces cause disease. Principles of Homeopathy were borne out of momentary delusion in the allopathic practitioner, Samuel Hahnemann. Ayurveda practitioners believe that imbalance in body humors (doshas) cause disease. Principles of Ayurveda come from beliefs, religious texts and faith-healing and untested primal observations. Naturopaths believe that short-term, acute illnesses are often the body’s way of clearing toxins and nature will eventually cure chronic illness. Principles of Naturopathy came to being because two guys were jobless in the 1800s and borrowed useless theories from herbalism and mysticism. Chiropractors believe that the body’s nervous system acts as the conductor of "internal" forces and that bone misalignments that interfere with the transmission of innate forces causes diseases. Principles of Chiropractic came in a dream to its founder, who hallucinated that a ghost of a dead physician was talking to him. If you consider these groups of people to be "medical doctors" then the joke is on you.

We see disturbing videos of young individuals collapsing suddenly and dying from *cardiac arrest*! what hurts even more is that instead of looking on, that life could have been saved by any bystander!! It is important for *all* and especially relatives of petients with heart disease to *SEE THIS VIDEO* and other videos and learn basic life support. Please note, mouth to mouth respiration is not required, only keep neck extended to maintain airway. What is most required is chest bone compression by 2 inches to maintain blood circulation. Do not worry about hurting the person, he is unconscious and you have to be effective to *SAVE A LIFE* and it is our responsibility to do so🙏🏼 #cardiacarrest #heartsafety #basicsupport #cprawareness #savealife #medicaleducation #publichealth #drashokseth #lallantop Sudden collapse, emergency response, bystander cpr, life saving skills, heart patients, basic life support

Avoiding unrecognised oesophageal intubation The @RCoA & @dasairway have agreed to drop ‘no trace wrong place’ The message now is that we need to exclude oesophageal intubation by identifying SUSTAINED EXHALED CO2 This requires 4 elements -CO2 rises & falls with respiration -sustained (non-fading, >7 cycles) -amplitude >1 KPa -clinically appropriate It replaces ‘no trace wrong place’ which is insufficient & therefore inadequate See these two updated webpages Sustained exhaled CO2 rcoa.ac.uk/safety-standards-… Prevention of future deaths rcoa.ac.uk/safety-standards-… @AAGBI @AndyHiggsGAA @NicholasChrimes

Tried with one or two X-rays and results are generic and still early stage. After this post by @elonmusk many students are messaging, while AI like Grok might initially seem to threaten traditional radiology jobs, the broader perspective suggests a transformation rather than elimination. Radiologists using AI will replace radiologists not using AI. #MedTwitter

Try submitting x-ray, PET, MRI or other medical images to Grok for analysis. This is still early stage, but it is already quite accurate and will become extremely good. Let us know where Grok gets it right or needs work.
