Pravin Dahal. Launceston General Hospital.

Thoraco-abdominal plane blocks.

Oooh starts with a menti poll!

(oh god how can I listen, tweet and menti poll .... thank god for coffee and treats and chats at the break ...)

I feel all the regional anaesthetist of Twitter here with Pravin Dahal as he extols the virtues of the erector spinae block, and his tips and tricks.

#ACE22TAS
(After nudging Adam Mahoney into Trauma Twitter over the break ........ I think it's time to nudge Pravin Dahal into #RegionalAnaesthesia Twitter).

Their people are here!

#ACE22TAS
Interesting commentary around very low numbers of thoracic epidurals in training now.

#ACE22TAS
Nice practical talk around logistics of ESP blocks and equipment available locally. #ACE22TAS Image
Oh spicy audience question:

Should we just bite the bullet and abandon the thoracic epidural entirely?

Very few being done, many alternatives without neuraxial issues, fewer contraindications, health service burden?

Meeting Pugh this morning has left me feeling unexpectedly contemplative. Beautiful park, cold crisp Sunday morning, not many people about. Thinking of my many anaesthetic teachers across 3 countries who taught me so much, their wisdom stays with me. On the shoulders of giants. Image
Went wandering around Launceston…. Image
For some bizarre reason though it would be a good idea to get on a chair lift over a gorge with raging waters below when no one else was brave enough …. Image

Next up Deb Willson @ANZCA councillor about the DRGA. Coming to a hospital near you. #ACE22TAS ImageImage
What is the problem?

Workforce data shows a distribution problem. Rural and regional populations are under serviced.

#ACE22TAS
JCCA has served us well, however underfunded, held together by amazing volunteers by all 3 colleges over the years. In the fullness of time the qualification no longer meets requirements of the medical regulator, hence the need for refresh.
