Burns scare community clinicians. Distance, weather and a graphic injury make the first hours hard. On Ep 1 of the Critical Care Commute, burns intensivist Dr. Dennis Djogovic walked us through a mock call from Elbow, Saskatchewan. 10 lessons 🧵👇
Call early, cut rarely. Refer ≥10% TBSA, face, perineum, joints, all children and major comorbidities. Escharotomy before transfer only for lost pulses or inability to ventilate.
Paediatric and dressing points are from ABLS (American Burn Association). Education only, not medical advice. #CriticalCare #Burns #FOAMed #FOAMcc #EMS
Lessons from our last episode: Raj Basu & Denise Goodman frame a medical career as a play in three acts. 🧵👇

EPILOGUE: Pick the specialty you miss when you're away from it, not the one you love while you're in it.
But build a life around the people who will miss you.
At work, someone can always do your job. At home, nobody can.
Huge thanks to Raj Basu & Denise Goodman for a generous conversation.
