About this episode
Welcome back!
First up a paper to challenge the way we think about rhythm recognition in cardiac arrest to start with, looking at the rate of VF identified on echo but not on the defibrillator.
We have a huge amount of strategies to rule out acute coronary syndrome in the UK, our next paper looks at the clinical effectiveness of these, whilst also giving us some hugely important information about the incidence of ACS in those presenting to Eds.
Finally we look at a paper quantifying the effect of hypertonic saline in those patients with a TBI.
Once again we'd love to hear any thoughts or feedback either on the website or via X @TheResusRoom.
We'll be taking a short break over the summer, but will be back in September with another Papers of the Month and Roadside to Resus, until then have a fantastic summer!
