🏠 At the European Resuscitation Council, we believe that every child has the potential to be a hero. By teaching them the life-saving skills of CPR (introductory), we can inspire them to make a difference in the world and become catalysts of positive change. Learning…

How to spot an OMI…

Do you know how to recognise an Occlusive Myocardial Infarction?
#ECG #OMI
#MyocardialInfarction

A total of 155 Yorkshire secondary schools have so far signed up for #RestartaHeart Day on 16 October to help thousands of students learn life-saving CPR.

💓 Encourage your local school to register before 19 April at ow.ly/KqWN50QNL6z

You can't push undiluted IV Keppra rapidly.

That's what they told us.

But it turns out you can!

A new study delves into the rapid administration of undiluted IV Keppra for seizure patients in the ED.

Ok. A few bits. Will add a context of intravenous sedation for long bone fracture manipulation as an example. 1. Even when the pre-sedation environment is tense, noisy, loud, etc., speak gently with the patient before you start. Allocate someone to continue to speak smoothly and

Here's a video I made breaking down this AMAZING case of a 45-year-old woman who went into sudden cardiac arrest

Algorithm for suspected culprit artery in inferior OMI. (for non-inferior OMI, the left system was investigated first)

There is now increased importance of identifying the culprit lesion of an OMI by using the ECG.

Really interesting case

First some simulation based training with South Yorkshire Fire running some scenarios for entrapment, difficult extrication & prolonged clinical care - then on to deliver a talk to YAS CFRs Yorkshire Ambulance discussing the Critical Care Teams & optimising care for patients suffering an OOHCA

Thanks to Phil Poskitt for volunteering to give a talk to our amazing YAS CFRs community first responders, discussing the role of #CriticalCareParamedics , showcasing some of our equipment and passing on some resuscitation pearls of wisdom 🙏🏻 #TeamYAS
