Sharing what we hope is an important paper in #SHOCK out today in NEJM Evidence by Richard Jung (who just matched to cardiology!). Prognostic Factors Associated with Mortality in Cardiogenic Shock — A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis | NEJM Evidence evidence.nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

Presented at CCR Down Under: In the SAHARA trial involving patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage and anemia, liberal transfusion of red cells did not result in a lower risk of an unfavorable neurologic outcome than a more restrictive strategy. nej.md/4ilTVdO

#CCRdownunder was superb, but now we turn our attention back to Belfast The first trial result for #CCR25 in Titanic Belfast in June is TARGET Protein Augmented administration of enteral protein to critically ill adults Register at criticalcarereviews.com/meetings/ccr25
