There are “do more” types of intensivists and “do less” types of intensivists.

Having one type on days and one type on nights can make for a rough week.

“During the late hours he was admitted to the ICU, there were no on-hand ICU intensivists — the term for doctors that specialize in providing critical care — the suit alleges. Instead, the wing outsourced this to a ‘tele-ICU’ service, which relies on off-site intensivists.”

I wonder how anesthesia, emergency medicine and intensivists are going to respond.

I got the insider scoop that one of the intensivists said I was very good at my job but too bossy and I wouldn't have to be that way if they would just do their damn jobs!

Dear Hospital Admins: Requiring board-certified intensivists to have ACLS is redundant. Requiring them to also spend time and money on BLS is ridiculous.

Sincerely,
Someone who probably leads codes far more often than the BLS teachers

The real reason I take a day off from the ICU is to remind the intensivists how bad they have it without a pharmacist

A lot of AI+medicine discourse seems to imagine the clinician as someone who hears the symptoms, figures out what's wrong, orders a treatment. For patient-facing medicine (eg. emergency, hospitalists, PCPs, intensivists, obstetricians, hem-onc), that's such an incomplete picture of the job.

the patient in question will generally get transferred to the nearest NHS trust with an ITU that has access to intensivists, surgeons, specialist consultants, specialist nurses, physios and all the other people that are needed to stabilise someone who is in danger.

There is so much more to the 3/

Looking for some anaesthesia/anesthesiology & critical care accounts. Start here.

The intensivists are having a thing at a bar tonight and do I really want to go to that? Could be fun?

A must read for intensivists/ECMOlogists out there.
Shared definitions and clear physiology are the basis of good clinical practice.

“Only a tiny number of hospitals truly rely on it as a primary substitute for on-site intensivists”

But that number is, in fact, growing isn’t it? Is there a database we can look at to see exact figures? Oh no there isn’t?

What barrier exists to stop universal adoption?

Positive that intensivists make the best homeowners bc they know the importance of fixing small problems before they become big problems.

Intensivists on service: My advanced clinical gestalt integrates thousands of observations from all five senses to deliver personalized medicine to every patient I am privileged to care for.

Intensivists emulating target trials: We adjusted for all important treatment confounders [SOFA score].

It’s really frustrating from a palliative care point of view too- although our intensivists sometimes just refer on to us themselves

Signposting this. Would love to see more intensivists at this course. Really educational day with a dedicated faculty.

It’s a mistake to send intensivists to nice places, outside the controlled environment of the ICU they go feral

Of all the nightmarish Orwellian phrases to come from this era “off-site intensivists” might be the absolute worst. Took Trump AND Big Tech to pull that evil bullshit off.

Also interestingly way more physicians/ intensivists/MH moved over here than surgeons....
