U.S. Coast Guard @USCG

The Coast Guard mourns the passing, and honors the courage, of Aviation Survival Technician (AST) Tyler Jaggers. On February 27, he was critically injured during a medical evacuation mission offshore from Cape Flattery, Washington, and later succumbed to his injuries and passed away at Madigan Army Medical Center. 
 Prior to his passing, he was meritoriously advanced to AST2 for his relentless drive in qualifications, the mentorship he consistently provided to swimmer candidates, and his exceptional performance across operational missions. Additionally, the Commandant of the Coast Guard awarded him the Distinguished Flying Cross – one of our Nation’s highest awards for heroism in aerial flight. 
 Through his selfless service and sacrifice, AST2 Jaggers exemplified the finest legacies of Coast Guard service, and the sacred oath of the Aviation Rescue Swimmer community: "So Others May Live".   #USCG #SoOthersMayLive @DHSgov @USCGPACAREA @USCGNorthwest

The @scrubs gang, including @zachbraff , @donaIdfaison and Sarah Chalke is back for a new, nine-episode season of the beloved series premiering Feb. 25 on ABC, and the next day on Hulu.  In the original Season 8 finale — before the show reset with a medical school setting — Braff's character J.D., always prone to elaborate fantasy sequences, sees a vision of how his life is going to turn out. His reality doesn’t exactly resemble that. "As we all know, especially when you reach 50 years old, a lot of things in life don’t turn out the way you hope they would. And that’s why we opened the show with J.D. living this fantasy that he is this heroic trauma ER guy when in fact he’s fixing toes in the suburbs," Braff said. latimes.com/entertainment-…

@LessIsMoreMed Yes! I have followed Dr.Sparrow @ruralems over this whole project with interest, we share many philosophies in prehospital care hatched in the UK - I listened to the excellent @NightShiftMD episode last week.

@DBateman100 Indeed @DBateman100 ! Great memories of it that shaped my entire career and lit the fuse for interest in aviation and prehospital care- what great machines. It has to be one of the most photographed 902’s on the planet. Can’t wait to see the 135’s in action.

(1/x) Intubating critically ill patients in the ICU has some important differences to the ED or OR. It also carries with it a 3% chance of cardiac arrest. Yes, THREE percent (PMID: 33755076) This may be the highest risk procedure we perform in the ICU. Here is how you can make intubation in the ICU as safe as possible. A 🧵 #medtwitter #foamed #foamcc
