@bobstuntz @pharmertoxguy @amalmattu Ca++ sounds reasonable - have also used @emcrit 's push-dose phenylephrine in unstable afib, as well.

Twitter is the digital watercooler in Medicine
I just don't have time to join Twitter.
Are you serious, Twitter?
Being in the minority of medical providers who use Twitter for work, these are common responses I hear. I would make the counter argument that it has given me opportunities to learn, collaborate, and share on a much more efficient level.
The best argument that I can come up with is that it is the new digital, global watercooler in Medicine. The difference from your current watercooler area is that this area includes global thought-leaders and educators. Seriously, who wouldn't want to eavesdrop on conversations and learn from leaders like Amal Mattu, Scott Weingart, and Mike Cadogan?
- It's where we hear of interesting new studies or controversial clinical tips.
- It's where we bounce ideas off each other so that we go off and learn more on our own.
- It's where we see practice variations worldwide.
Question to the collective:
What has been your best argument for why one should join Twitter?
Here's my recent "Digital Watercooler" article in Emergency Physicians Monthly. This will launch a new EP Monthly column capturing Twitter conversations, written by our very own Dr. Javier BenÃtez! Keep a lookout for it.

I joined Twitter. Now what? (Tutorial video #2 - Desktop)
In Part 2 of this Twitter tutorial (Part 1 video), I focus on how to navigate Twitter using the Twitter native website on my desktop/laptop. I personally, however, use Hootsuite (free) so that I can see more items at a single glance.
NOTE: You may have to increase the quality of the video because of the small print. You can do this at the bottom bar of video (uploaded in 720p).
Pearl:
- Start by following just a few people and build up to a bigger list. If often feels like you are drinking from a firehose if you start too quickly. Start with this list by @FOAMstarter.
I joined Twitter. Now what? (Tutorial video #1 - iPhone)
Hashtags I have been following recently:
- #MeduTOT: Medical Education Tricks of the Trade. I introduced this hashtag during the AAMC 2012 conference this week in San Francisco. This hashtag labels all things related to practical teaching tips in medical education, such as powerpoint design, giving feedback, curricular design, bedside teaching, etc. Thought it appropriate since there were so many educators all gathered together using Twitter!
- #EMTOT: Emergency Medicine Tricks of the Trade. This hashtag labels all things related to tips in the clinical practice of EM.
- #AAMC12: A conference hashtag for Association of American Medical Colleges meeting in 2012
- #EssentialsEM: A conference hashtag for Essentials of EM conference

P.S. It was surprisingly challenging to type on an iPhone without being able to see the iPhone or my fingers because they were behind the video-recording iPad.
