Just rewatched my talk from Rebellion in EM 2019...The Impact We Have on Patients https://t.co/IBSh9nGN7K
Reminded me why I went into EM to begin with...hope this inspires others who are needing it

This prediction tool containing detailed in-hospital information showed good performance for predicting neurological outcome at 90d immediately after ROSC in OHCA patients. A simple calculator is available here: https://t.co/WsuqBZnehb

New in @Resus_Plus- video recording of OHCA to measure non-technical skills!

I’m always amazed by just how many people who are employed to teach in medicine, really don’t understand the basics of teaching and learning.
On occasion I wonder if suck knowledge is positively discouraged

Want to know why @SeattleFire@KingCountyWA has incredible cardiac arrest outcomes? At today’s high-performance CPR demo @ResuscAcademy, this crew received 99% on CPR and ventilations overall, and how does the Captain react? “We have room for improvement.” 💪 Every gain counts.
New RCT on hypothermia (31 vs 34°C) after OHCA
- no significant mortality or neuro outcome benefits
- longer ICU stay with 31°C
- mortality was slightly higher with 31°C (43.5% vs 41%) in the overall population BUT slightly lower in non-shockable

#ECPR in adults: data from recent RCTs offer rigorous evidence that may improve survival with neuro & functional recovery when performed within highly coordinated systems. Do not forget ethical/economic implications that may accompany more widespread use. https://t.co/DCyDHomJB8
Don’t withdraw life support too soon! @yourICM
After cardiac arrest, many people are comatose. We try to figure out who will recover. This 770 pt study found normal brain biomarkers predicted recovery & could prevent premature life support withdrawal.

Dear new #medstudenttwitter, welcome to your 1st clinical rotations.
Below are some tips for you to succeed in #emergencymedine. My #1 tip for success is:
Ask questions! - to learn, to keep your patients and yourself safe. 👍
