I do of course work for the #NHS and am aware of some of the shortcomings of the service in general, but last night from the perspective of a patient, I saw a prime example of why the NHS is on its arse financially.

At the walk-in, they attached #ECG stickers and put a bag of saline up.

15mins after the drip starts, Ambulance arrives. (2hrs after being called). Paramedics want to do another ECG. Their system won’t allow the ECG from the walk-in, they need to use their own machine. Do the ECG stickers work with their machine? No they do not. So a second set goes on. Then they want to take me hospital, but can’t use the bag that’s already up because “we’re not allowed”. So an almost full bag of saline goes into the bin, and they start a new one from the Ambulance.

Get to hospital. They need to do another ECG. Do the Amb stickers work with A&E ECG machine? No they do not. So a third set gets put on.

That’s two sets of ECG stickers and one bag of saline wasted. Why??

Continued thread

The cardiac PA at the ER told me to come back if I “felt bad” and some things are obvious like the massive dull chest pain I had Monday night.

It’s also clear that if I get out of breath and my heart’s racing that also qualifies as “bad. But it’s harder than I want it to be to determine if my resting heart rate is at a stable “high” level. This is the precondition which leads to a tracing heart rate.

Continued thread

When my resting heart rate is 50% over normal it’s very important to avoid physical activity that will cause heart rate to dangerously increase.

My pulse oximeter doesn’t seem to measure my heart rate well when the period is irregular (an element of atrial fibrillation).

Perhaps having a watch that can perform a simple 1-point ecg could be helpful?

Saw the Apple Ultra 2 watch can do a 1-point ecg and indicate Afib. Are there cheaper options?

[Q] Suggestions for a smart watch or other reliable portable device for measuring heart rate during extensive atrial fibrillation.

Have never had any issues with my heart and after getting Influenza A last week I now have extensive atrial fibrillation and periods of time when my resting heart rate is between 110-120 bpm. When at this heart rate at rest walking slowly up 2 flights of stairs rate rides over 150 bpm.

Everybody who is happy about #Garmin having rolled out #ECG in the #EU and has now #2fa enabled in their account but still want to script a thing or two with #JWT and #Bearer from the site, rejoice… My login script can now deal with that, too… Love #curl and #jq

Now I wait for a new firmware for my watch, because I'm on a beta on which ECG is disabled, lol…
