So we decided to do something a little different when it came to pre-course reading material for #RESUSCITATE so instead of the usual course book, we condensed it onto a SINGLE PAGE with lots of QR codes. In the interest of #FOAMed, here you go! Feel free to RT/spread!

Dr Shane Broderick, Consultant in Emergency and Trauma Medicine at the Mater, said: "Knife trauma is not just a policing issue, it's a public health emergency. Early intervention can save lives. We need to ensure bystanders are equipped to act before medical teams arrive."

The Mater Hospital recorded a 68% increase in knife-related injuries in its Emergency Department over the past five years, prompting calls from ED doctors for more measures to deal with the issue. https://t.co/KHV0XUfNxo
