Good to compare and contrast our CPG to the @AmbulanceVic CPG for the subtle differences to deepen the understanding of analgesia.
My particular interest in the ketamine sub dissociative dose (SDK) administration.

@Teddyyhwu@StJohnNZ @CanterburyDHB @HelicopterICP Other two missions yesterday was STEMI.
Case 1 over 90mins to PCI capable hospital. Thornibolised by paramedics.
Case 2 rapid transport and declaring Code STEMI, bypassed ED and on Cath table in 20mins post arrival to hospital.
Great teamwork by all!😁
Mighty effort from flight crew and @StJohnNZ to get a patient from Akaroa to Christchurch @CanterburyDHB with stroke symptom to thrombolysis time of just over 90minutes. @prehospresus@HelicopterICP#timeisbrain
A long term ambition finally realised. MSc Professional Development: Prehospital Critical Care with @CumbriaUni. A very proud day.
Brilliant to see so many prehospital colleagues graduating with undergraduate and postgraduate qualifications. The times they are a changin’
Successful telestroke simulations today with Queenstown Hospital. Great team effort! Look forward to treating patients in Queenstown. #telestroke#timeisbrain
The South Island Telestroke network has gone off to a roaring start with stroke thrombectomy transfers to Christchurch from nearly all centres already! Bringing equality for access to life saving stroke intervention to all South Islanders. #telestroke @CanterburyDHB @StJohnNZ
We are excited to be launching a new piece of technology in our control room.
@GoodSamApp 'Instant-on-Scene' works by accessing the phone cameras of a 999 caller (with permission) so @LDNairamb medics in our control room can get ‘on-scene’ at serious incidents in seconds.
What do you get when you have three paramedics walking to lunch combined with a simultaneous @GoodSamApp alert?
A - early chest compressions, joint response with a @Ldn_Ambulance FRU, ROSC achieved + sustained to hospital!
Get. This. App. 😊😊👍
