@chamath Well deserved

@elonmusk is going to Mars.🚀

We’re just trying to get paramedics to scan the vial.
18,194 scans. 4 months.

[Peter Antevy @HandtevyMD]

We keep blaming the pharmacist.

But the Nashville investigation raises a bigger question: Did the system make the error possible?

The scanner actually caught the wrong vial. The failure came after that.

My latest blog post takes a deep dive into what the new report tells us, and why we need to look beyond the person who made the final mistake.

The FDA just approved a breakthrough from 1938.

Dried plasma is back. And I believe plasma will eventually become, by a wide margin, the most commonly used blood product in prehospital care.

There's something special happening under the dome at @UConn's Gampel Pavilion that is saving lives.

@HeatDiehards Yes, she does exist. Sat next to her during a game. Her cookies are legendary in the Heat locker room. Cookies every game, home or away.

[Peter Antevy @HandtevyMD]

@pmarca Smarter, yes. Better, not yet.

Call me when they can intubate, place a central line and start a norepinephrine infusion on a septic patient.

[Peter Antevy @HandtevyMD]

Do you remember the first life you saved?

Not the call, what came after.

On July 15, I'm joining @brad_newbury, a career captain and paramedic in fire and EMS, to talk about The Saved Effect: the ripple that follows a life saved.

𝐃𝐒𝐄𝐃 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬𝐧'𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤!

That's what a new observational study from New Zealand reports.

𝘕𝘰 𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘷𝘪𝘷𝘢𝘭 𝘣𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘧𝘪𝘵 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘋𝘚𝘌𝘋 𝘢𝘧𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘸𝘪𝘥𝘦 𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯.

That's where most people stop reading, and say "I told you so!"

❗ But let's not make that mistake.

A result like this begs the question, "How does this make sense when the DOSE VF RCT showed that DSED more than doubled survival in refractory VF?"

This is why the headline read of a study is rarely the read that matters.
✅ The methodology is.
✅ The patient population is.
✅ The timing of the intervention is.

And the limitations the authors themselves disclose, often tell you more than the conclusion.

I took a deep dive.

No Extra Clicks.

That was the challenge I gave my team when we started building ScanSafe™.

Scan the vial. Verification happens instantly. Right inside the workflow. No extra steps.

@MedicalSphereAI Claude Sonnet for the win!

Great case yesterday. Pediatric patient with 9/10 chest pain/pressure and palpitations. BP wnl. Sats normal. No syncope. Otherwise healthy. No PMH or FHx relevant.

Will post outcome in a bit. I want to hear your thoughts.

[Peter Antevy @HandtevyMD]

With the long QT and WCT we avoided adenosine and Amio. Gave Magnesium over 20 minutes and the QRS narrowed and her symptoms resolved, but still tachy >200.

In the ED they hemmed and hawed for 20 min and finally decided to give adenosine.

Final dx SVT with aberrancy.

@PulmCrit @akatzzzzz The PITSTOP RCT is pending by @DrCheskes and his group from Toronto. Should solve this debate. Septic shock - anywhere - needs fluids, pressors, and antibiotics, irrespective of location. Nothing magical happens in the hospital.

[Peter Antevy @HandtevyMD]

@Aidan_Baron @joshkimbre @FOAMfrat 100% agree that LTOWB and Components are equivalent. Some people are conflating two points and using this study to challenge the use of pre-hospital blood.
