People are hearing the news...have you? Our recent study in @jama.com (Surgery) was their top-viewed paper last week. Read the publication here if you haven't yet: jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

Translating Trauma Research into Practice After years of designing, collecting, cleaning, analysing (and rewriting... several times), publishing a study is both a milestone and a leap of faith.

Just published in @sjtrem.bsky.social - a short re-analysis of recent work on the efficacy of physician-staffed pre-hospital critical care. Improved precision by pooling survival + mortality outcomes, and some reassurance against publication bias.

📊 New Data Reinforces Collaboration in Pre-Hospital Care! @ryanmchenry.bsky.social with ScotStar’s EMRS re-analyzed data from our study (doi.org/10.1186/s130...), finding survival was 41% higher for pts Tx by MD-led interprofessional teams vs. paramedics alone — with min risk of publication bias.

For his second talk at #LTC2024 Prof Demetri Yannopoulos focused on systems issues in the delivery of prehospital ECMO. I’ll highlight some of the key points below. #ECMO #PHEM #PHCC #EMS #prehospital #eCPR

An excellent talk from Dr Matt Mak on fatigue and shift patterns in prehospital care kicked off the day.

Today is prehospital care day at the London Trauma Conference. I have some more catching up to do on yesterday as there were so many talks and interesting abstracts but I’ll pop on a few real-time posts of the talks today #LTC2024 #LCAS2024 @LDN_TC

It is both humbling and inspiring to hear a world leader in your field reflect upon the lessons from his career. Richard Lyon not only shared his most impactful resuscitation successes but also his most profound failures. aakss.org.uk/kss_team/pro...

Dr Demetrius Yannopoulos one of the world’s leading ECMO team has spent the past several years demonstrating the benefits of ECMO-CPR (eCPR) for the management of out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). #LCAS2024 #LTC2024 #prehospitalcare #PHEC #PHCC

Mike Christian @drmikechristian.bsky.social · 03/12/2024

The ARREST trial of cardiac arrest centers (CAC) for the management of OHCA patients. This finding that the best outcome was seen in patients who went to tertiary care hospitals EDs with a CAC available was interesting but what about brining tertiary critical care to the patient? #LCAS2024 #LTC2024

This certainly leads one to pause for reflection. Male anaesthetists report significantly higher confidence for managing peri-operative cardiac arrests than their female colleagues, HOWEVER…their clinical outcomes were actually the same. #LCAS2024 #LTC2024
