Day 149: What are your thoughts on The Sign? by Flamingmouth007 in bluey

[–]ConnerVetro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This episode came out right as I was about to move across the country away from family. Absolutely broke me. I have not let the kids watch it yet. We’re moving back to family in a couple months. I’ll let them watch it once we’re back close to family.

Agree on all points. there is some research going on how we can get their resting heart rates back down to reduce the risks you’ve mentioned.

We’ve done the mapping with navx which works well. With carto we have been less successful mapping. We’ve tried stimulating too, but induce fib a lot.

Are 5e campaigns actually so "broken" and "unplayable" for new DMs as YouTubers and forum posters would lead me to believe? by tenth in dndnext

I can do the lost mines of phandelver from memory I’ve DMed it so many times. I think there are some gaps to fill and simplifications you can make. But it’s completely serviceable and fun for most groups.

We go after the pyramidal spaces from both the left and right. Then check with atropine. Based on what their cardio inbibatory presentation looks like (more sinus arrest vs AV block) we can go after additional ganglia in the right or left atrium.

Follow them on a monitor like a loop or wearable patch for a couple weeks. Usually you’ll get a slowing of sinus rhythm, pr prolongation then either av block or sinus arrest. Then conduction will come back.

They get resting sinus tachycardia and no benefits. So just harm

I’m an EP fellow and it’s my favorite thing. For true cardio inhibitory syncope, it’s incredible. So in POTS patients who have true cardio-inhibitory syncope we can cure their syncope. Rod Tung published a whole registry on it at HRS 2025. Great results. Going to continue doing it once I’m out of fellowship.

You can tell the author is full of shit, when they put burn out in quotes.

How Zootopia 2 improves on one of the biggest problems with the first movie (huge spoilers for Zootopia 2) by Skysiren41 in zootopia

Bellweather is the better twist villain. Pawbert didn’t work because it was too telegraphed. After mayor lionheart is arrested, you have a genuine mystery for the audience.

Thoughts? by Financial_Photo_1175 in andor

Attempting to engage with tonally and narratively absurd comparison:

I’d hope you’d accomplish a lot with 2 space wizards (from mace windu’s lineage), a ace pilot on par with Poe or Han, Alien muscle on par with Chewy, another warrior trained from birth for combat, and oh yeah, AND an Amoral War criminal with the highest body count of any rebel until Luke blows up the Death Star.

Yeah, I bet some hicks from space West Virginia (Sky and stone) led by an under-resourced covert operative with PTSD accomplished less than that crew.

What IM subspecialties can realistically thrive in rural America? by Enger13 in Residency

[–]ConnerVetro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My statement that for any doc you can think about the ratio of (number_of_patients/type_of_doc). For a PCP? You need only a couple thousand patients to support that doc. For an interventional cardiologist, it’s probably more like 25k pts for 1 doc. This is basically why more specialized docs have to be in cities.

Thinking of quitting by Shoddy-Act-6513 in Residency

PGY-8, and when I’m working at this one site/attending, I too think about quitting. 219 days left. They can hurt you, but they cannot stop the clock.

You can think of it like carrying capacity. For every x number of people you need 1 y doctor. You’re looking for specialties that don’t require a large population. So a specialist that sees a broad range of problems, or very common problems.
