There are practices emerging, a new (for many) approach to resuscitation that includes care for a patient's family & bystanders, as well as the care providers. The "patient" always takes the priority in the moment, but care needs often exist for others as well. #cardiacarrest
Here's a chart worth remembering...authors looked at NEW ECG findings in PE (segmental up to saddle). Nice demonstration of the MYTH of sinus tach and S1Q3T3 in PE. Note-24% of patients had no new changes on the ECG

My #ICUOnePager on managing Arterial Lines and interpreting their waveforms is now available in English & Spanish. Muchas gracias a @interconsulta por traducir al español. #FOAMcc#FOAMcc
Optimize brain recovery post CA vs
🧠 primary damage at CA, injury depending on (low/no flow) times
🧠 secondary damage starts soon after CA, impacting on outcome
🧠 neuroprotection required!

🚨 ECMO is the most advanced life support available in the ICU. In collaboration with @JonahRubinMD, this is the first in a series of OnePagers about #ECMO. This #OnePager reviews the fundamentals of VA🫀& VV🫁 ECMO including terminology, equipment, & physiology. #FOAMed#FOAMcc
Sometimes mechanical ventilation is not enough in #COVID19: #ECMO support could improve survival! So far, at least 1030 pts with confirmed/suspected #SARSCoV2#Coronavirus infection have been placed on #ECLS https://t.co/jRqnIoOErn
