Should I Stay or Should I Go?

In this eye-opening lecture from the ResusX: ROSC conference (see the link below for more lectures), Dr. Lindsey Ewing takes us on a deep dive into the high-stakes world of prehospital cardiac arrest management, revealing the secrets to maximizing patient survival with on-scene resuscitation.
She explores the latest protocols highlighting higher quality CPR, timely rhythm checks, and the importance of addressing reversible causes on-site. Dr. Ewing also touches on the challenges of dealing with OMI and pulmonary embolism, the innovative use of point-of-care ultrasound, and the phenomenon of CPR-induced consciousness.
Wrapping up with insights on post-ROSC stabilization and the intriguing concept of auto-resuscitation, this episode is a must-watch for anyone in emergency medicine seeking to optimize their resuscitation strategies.

as a hospital-based Intensivist, videos like this are an excellent way for me to get an alternative lens on how EMS and the ED are looking at resuscitative strategies. It informs my own practice even if I don't make substantive changes to my own resuscitations. Excellent video! (makes me think!)
