Microsoft violated the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act by collecting data on children who had started Xbox accounts without parental consent. They also shared the data with third parties. #COPPA #FTC 2/6
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) reached a settlement with Microsoft on Monday, which also includes increased protections for child gamers. Microsoft admitted that it did not meet customer expectations and said it was committed to improving its safety measures. #Safety 3/6

59 year old male presents to ED with SOB. Family states was at home at fell in bathroom. Hx of HTN/DM. Unsure of meds or compliance to therapy. Arrival BP 79/42 😱😱
Patient was given IVF bolus but this worsened SOB—>started on Bipap—>intubation. Post tube pulse ox 77% on 100% and 10 PEEP 😫
Post tube CXR—->very convincing pulm edema
MICU called to help with oxygenation . Some concern for cardiac event but too hypoxic for Lab

I go and immediately walk PEEP up to 20.
Plat/driving pressures all improve with PEEP titration. Sats go from 77–>92. I’m happy.
Diurese, get some labs, little levo, +/- cath depending on what happens, and I’ll be back to the call room in no time.

Today we had a massive PE patient with McConnel sign. I explained the pathophysiology of McConnel sign on this👇 glove. It’s all physics. #CardioTwitter #Echo
McConnell's sign is RV free wall akinesia/hypokinesia with preserved RV apical contraction in massive PE patients.
Here is the physics; the radius of RV inflow(palm of the glove) is much larger than the RV apical radius(thumb of the glove). According to Laplace law, wall tension increases with a larger radius.

Together again for the first time since 2018, Charlie Cox's #Daredevil and Vincent D'Onofrio's Kingpin will both appear in Marvel's #Echo series, starring Alaqua Cox: thr.cm/IRkblGw
Sources say #Echo will include a plotline in which #Daredevil is searching out a former ally. It has been reported that the ally is Jessica Jones thr.cm/IRkblGw
Charlie Cox recently told THR he longed to reunite with Vincent D’Onofrio onscreen: “I am imagining, I am hoping, that our worlds will collide again because the stuff we’ve done in the past was tremendous fun to do" thr.cm/IRkblGw

Des documents internes d'#Amazon révèlent ( comme de nbreux acteurs l'avaient déjà identifié ! ) que si les enceintes #audio #Echo pilotées par l'#IA #Alexa sont les plus achetées, leurs usages restent essentiellement cantonnés à 2 ou 3 fonctions :
1-L'#audio (flux/délinéarisé)

3- Alarmes
Ainsi les principales préoccupations des responsables de la division #Alexa (10K personnes !) restent l'engagement et la rétention des auditeurs.

Patient in Janus Jeneral Hospital with neutropenic septic shock. 3ml/hr of single strength noradrenaline - MAP 65, FiO2 30%, Lactate 7. CVP 5. UO 50ml/hr. CTPA negative for PE. AP4C on arrival. #vexus #echo #shock #FOAMed @GUH_ICU_Anaesth @IrishEMtrainees @ICSIreland
Has already had 3L of crystalloid pre admit to crit care.
RVSP = TR Max PG (18.4) + CVP (5) = 23mmHg
RVSP = TR Max PG (18.4) + CVP (5) = 23mmHg
Overnight, lacto-bolo reflex sets in & gets 'maintenance' plus multiple boli of IV crystalloid b/c of high lactate.
In the am, increasing shocked state. On norad 20ml/hr SS, vasopressin max, adrenaline 5ml/hr to maintain MAP > 60.
RV & RA acutely dilated on focused US.

#polio, let's go right to the beginning to understand that vaxx did nothing to eradicate it. So what is polio? In simple terms it is the inflammation of the gray matter of the spinal cord. It can also occur in the brainstem.
We have been conditioned to believe that polio equals braced limbs, iron lungs etc. Actually only those infected with #bulbarpoliomyelitis, which affects the brainstem, were placed in #ironlungmachines
We've also been conditioned to believe that polio was wide-spread, which actually is not the case at all. Naturally existing poliovirus was a common bowel inhabitant for
millennia, always there, continuously circulating through humans,
but never causing paralysis.

1. pHTN is increased pressure in the #pulmonaryarteries
2. Most common symptoms include: EXERTIONAL #dyspnea, fatigue, pleuritic chest pain, and even #hemoptysis🩸
3. It's typically diagnosed on #ECHO showing dilated arteries, right❤️strain, & elevated RV systolic pressure!

Here’s a great #Echo of a young lady who suddenly collapsed to the ground in Cardiac Arrest. Bystander CPR was performed and 911 was called. Paramedics shock her once for pulseless VT and get ROSC on the scene. She’s intubated, in shock, on an Epi drip.
What’s the diagnosis?
What’s the diagnosis?
The RV is very dilated with poor systolic function. The RA is also very big. The LV is Hyperdynamic with no obvious wall motion abnormality. This appearance of Severe Right Heart Strain is common during arrest, but when it persists AFTER ROSC, you must think Massive PE!

[2/x]
But the other caveat is that this Right Heart Strain could also be the result of *chronic* pulmonary hypertension.
So here’s what we did: We placed an Arterial Line & added a Norepi drip. We notified the CT techs that she needed to be next in line for an Emergent CTPA...
