8/10: Post cardiac arrest pts. are simultaneously a 1) cardiac patient (their heart stopped) 2) neuro patient (we care about their brain) 3) and trauma patient (someone just crushed their chest for like 30 min).
If you are CT scanning post arrest, low threshold to PAN scan (head, chest, abdo)
Also, if you are going to order a CT chest, consider a PE protocol so you never have to discuss on rounds whether the patient could have an occult PE as the etiology arrest!!! 🫀🧠🦴
