#SoMe on conferences should be more than 'just' posting photos of slides (that's where most of us started). It's about summarising, creating infographics like @FOAMecmo @WhistlingDixie4 @hughgifford #LIVES2020
and adding background infos, papers and other resources like @iceman_ex @aartisarwal @Gas_Craic
#LIVES2020
And creating excellent blogs and websites like criticalcarenorthampton.com by @Wilkinsonjonny or @_dasFOAM

Professors Margaret Herridge and Carol Hodgson @chodgsonANZICRC

Importance of non mortality ICU outcomes

- SF36 / eq5d assessments for functional outcomes

- cognition and mood disorders MOCA / HADS assessments

@ESICM #LIVES2020

clinmedjournals.org/articles/jmdt/…
Risk factors for worse ICU outcome:

- age - purely as a marker of organ reserve
- illness trajectory prior to ICU
- pre existing mental & physical health
- duration of delirium related to long term cognition outcome

There is good evidence in the literature for “dose-response” relationships between severity of illness and post-illness function, ie. ICU have worse outcome than hospitalised patients.

The level of dysfunction was also worse than patients expected. So important in consent.

Armed with coffee, Im at the case-based fundamental sessions. Discussing real cases and management strategies.

Would you do what the experts would do?

The classic case vignette of a septic patient being resuscitated - the audience is split between 30mls/kg of fluids or start a vasopressor. #LIVES2020

i suspect @Manu_Malbrain @khaycock2 et al have a view on the 30mls/kg option.
I like the fact that you can send your questions in on the platfrom. It can be intimidating to be handed a mic in a large room - I do anyway #LIVES2020

So I can speak 3 languages - English, Mandarin and Malay. So where do I fit? #LIVES2020
