- To follow this up, here is the end result: curated list of ‘papers I want to read’ from my attendance at #Lives2025 #criticalcare 📟 😀
- Next up is SONIA - a trial of low dose steroids for pneumonia, which sheds needed light on care of pts with pneumonia in resource limited settings. Worth appreaciting differing baseline mortality associated with CAP and hitherto underrepresentation of pts in these settings in research #Lives2025
- ANDROMEDA-SHOCK-2 is up next…. this looks at personalised phenotype-based, capillary refill time (CRT) targeted resuscitation in early septic shock, comparing to standard resuscitation. It is large (86 centres, 19 countries). Read it free from JAMA: tinyurl.com/mjcj8s5w #Lives2025 #criticalcare
- EVERDAC is hot off press @esicm.bsky.social #Lives2025 in @nejm.org open access currently: www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.... Reports that in (non-blinded trial) patients with shock, management *without* early a-line insertion was noninferior to early catheter insertion…. #Lives2025 #criticalcare
- After much wind and rain - we did have one blue sky day in #Munich - The best part of which was when a stranger asked me to mind her dog for five minutes and he was a very good boy #criticalcare #Lives2025
- Hoping to catch some ‘hot topics’ session from airport, off now to get back in good time for for work tomorrow. Have had a wonderful congress catching up with colleagues from all over the world, attending @intenscaremed.bsky.social board and reaffirming my 🩵 for intensive care! #Lives2025
- I’m closing my day with (you guessed it) - another debate. This time, diaphragmatic pacing and ventilator weaning Diaphragmatic weakness is multi-factorial but lack of contraction on IMV is obviously a big one ….. #Lives2025 #criticalcare
- I am back to do some poster moderation again for the late afternoon. It’s so wonderful hearing what people around the world and doing an contributing to our speciality #Lives2025 @esicm.bsky.social
- Spending my time immediately post-lunch attending Ethics section meeting of @esicm.bsky.social at #Lives2025 - it will be my first time actually attending the section I picked. Photo to illustrate that the flow of free coffee from industry is not disappointing #criticalcare
- Debate 3 of my day - Can we predict prognosis of comatose patients with acute brain injury? This is something that touches a significant proportion of my caseload. #Lives2025 #crticalcare @esicm.bsky.social

- I’m taking suggestions for words from languages with better ways to describe de-resuscitation! #Lives2025
