Ping @IofPHC #ResusScienceSymp. This is where ECMO/ECLS started - evolution from operating theatre cardiopulmonary bypass - it’s often the simple ideas driven by those willing to ‘stand on the shoulder of giants’

@JenelleBadulak @IcusHarborview @NickJohnsonMD @UWashEM The therapeutic hypothermia and ecmo conference I was invited to speak at I March in Miami featured an incredible wealth of knowledge about this. I learned so much and am starting to believe that we really should be targeting 33, maybe lower, and FAST.

Is post arrest 33 better than 36 degrees? Looks like neuro-intact survival went down after switching from 33 to 36 @IcusHarborview. 36 degrees associated with increased fevers and delays in TTM initiation (not started in the ED). @NickJohnsonMD @UWashEM

Super exciting to see Victorian clinicians working together for a statewide ECMO service @BiancaJL_22 @KnottCameron @IntensiveDave @NixonNotNickson

JAMA DEXACET jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/… reports reduced delirium, reduced morphine requirement, and shorter ICU LOS with acetaminophen vs placebo. 2x2 with propofol vs dexmedetomidine as sedative arms, no effect. Single centre, interesting, needs testing crit-iq.com/index.php/Jour…
