REBOA = higher mortality (47% vs 36%), more transfusions, longer time to OR. No survival benefit. Check the new study by Hatchimonji et al. https://t.co/RnQGoCdJXI and Jansen's commentary https://t.co/s3qqRcWi6C. @jhatchmd @dianehaddadmd @pdowzicky @markseamonmd

Thanks @TeslaAUNZ @Tesla your tyre sealer and mini compressor saved the day after a big nail completely deflated this tyre. It allowed me to safely drive the car to a tyre shop this morning avoiding a tow!

How do you become a world-class ECPR cannulator? Listen to Charles Bruen of the Minnesota Mobile Resuscitation Consortium tell us how he gained the skills to be a cannulator in arguably the best ECPR program in the world. https://t.co/FBohSiEUbD

The decision as to whether we should provide bicarb to our critically ill patient takes places every single day. This paper breaks things down amazingly well. Don’t forget to pay attention to the serum CO2. 🎩 tip to the authors. https://t.co/wtiQFg1wGN

🚑 Stroke care matters. So does how we deliver it. A new study shows that patients transported by the Melbourne Mobile Stroke Unit (MSU) had: ✅ 2x better odds of full recovery ✅ ½ the mortality rate at 90–180 days ✅ Higher thrombectomy rates (40% vs. 23%) But better

BACKGROUND: Evidence of the cost implications and health outcomes associated with the use of mobile stroke units (MSU) is required to support their utilization. We aimed to evaluate the causal effect...

Major prehospital OHCA research results! 🚨 The EVIDENCE Trial randomized expedited transport vs. on-scene resuscitation, finding no difference in survival b/w groups (16v16% w/ ⬆️ CIs). Sust. ROSC higher in the on-scene group (34%) than the expedited transport group (24%).

Everyone in EMS should take the time to read this… Then go do it. Every day you wait, people in your community are missing out on a lifesaving resource.

Our data suggest that prioritization of prehospital transfusion improves survivability in patients with severe hemorrhage despite a modest increase in transport time. @Tulane_Surgery @MarkPiehl @JakeBroome https://t.co/7UZpIElL1J
