AHA reccs Amio or Lido for shock-refractory VF/VT after conflicting trials (ARREST/ALIVE w/ Amio>Lido, ALPS w/ no diff). Now, a target trial emulation of Amio v. Lido shows 🔼 assoc of Lido w/ EMS ROSC (36 vs. 30%), post-drug defib, & surv (35 vs. 26%). resuscitationjournal.com/article/S0300-…

As a resuscitation scientist and self-proclaimed VFib nerd, this may be my favorite text message I have ever received

We looked at four Friday the 13th's between 2022 and 2024 and found they were not associated with an increase in EMS calls or cardiac arrests – myth busted! authors.elsevier.com/a/1kk3%7E2dHVQ… Joshua Kimbrell Jacob Stebel Alex Zhou Jake Desman Ethan Abbott, DO, MSCR, FACEP

How much time is required for ETCO2 trajectory during OHCA resuscitation to predict ROSC risk? 7-21 minutes, depending on phenotype. Promising area for future research presented at #SAEM25

Across 1000+ patients with acute stroke at an urban comprehensive stroke center, prehospital notification (calling and activating a stroke code from the field) led to faster CTs and interventions. Joshua Kimbrell Jacob Stebel Brian Mac Grory Judah Kreinbrook tandfonline.com/eprint/Y7YFK5G…

Delays to chest compressions and defibrillation are common following prehospital rearrest. Among pts. with a rearrest rhythm of VF, the median delay from the first second of VF on ECG to defib. was 67s (IQR 29, 245), and 3 (20%) were not defibrillated. doi.org/10.1016/j.ajem…

Excited to share our article published in JAMA Network Open. Airport OHCAs have ⬆️ rates of witnessed CPR, bystander CPR/AED use, ⚡ rhythms, and ROSC than other public locations. Maybe Airport OHCAs are a model for community CPR response! Thanks to Aditya C. Shekhar for leading.

We compared out-of-hospital cardiac arrest at US airports versus other public (non-residential settings) and found significant differences between locations. Joshua Kimbrell Jacob Stebel Out now in JAMA Network Open: jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman…

📊 New study: When compared to other non-residential locations, OHCA at airports had higher rates of: Witnessed arrest Bystander CPR/AED use Shockable rhythms ROSC Thank you to co-authors incl Joshua Kimbrell, and to Aditya C. Shekhar for leading.
