Cutting Edge PHEM; Roadside to Resus

Simon Laing, Rob Fenwick & James Yates
About this episode

Excellent practice is led by following the high quality evidence based medicine, and there have been a lot of great papers published in the last 12 months!

We were kindly invited to the Faculty of Pre Hospital Care Annual Scientific Conference to give a talk on the top 10 papers over the last year.

Sadly, but completely understandably, the conference had to be cancelled due to COVID-19. In this podcast we cover the talk which is based on 2 cases that are common to PHEM;a major trauma and a cardiac arrest, and discuss how we can optimise outcomes for our patients in view of the recent evidence on these areas.

As always we’d love to hear any thoughts or comments you have on the website and via twitter, and make sure you take a look at the references and guidelines linked below to draw your own conclusions.

Enjoy!

Simon, Rob & James
