Does first-pass success matter as an intubation outcome metric? This study by April et al says yes. Summary: When compared to FPS, every additional intubation attempt confers increased odds of a major adverse event. 2 attempts = aOR 4.3 3 attempts = aOR 7.4 4 attempts = aOR 13.9 5+ attempts = aOR 9.3 -Major events defined as esophageal intubation, bradycardia, cardiac arrest, hypotension, hypoxia, laryngospasm, pneumothorax, tachydysrhythmia -15,079 patients analyzed -89% FPS, 8% 2nd attempt, 2% 3rd attempt, <1% 4th attempt, <1% 5th attempt sciencedirect.com/science/articl… @DhimitriNikolla @JonathanCaseyMD @AditGinde @long_brit #emergency #emergencymedicine #criticalcare #icu #erlife #iculife #science #army #armymedicine #armyemdoc #resuscitation #research #data #trauma #airway #medx #medtwitter #medx #medairway #airwaytwitter

PEA’s Gary Berkowitz @FatamboGary presented at #SMACCForce, where he discussed nuanced care in paramedicine, featuring @craigwylie from @bad__EM. Thanks to @codachange. #codapodcast #PEA #badEM codachange.org/2021/02/14/par…

What does paramedicine beyond 2020 look like? @FatamboGary talks to us about the Queensland Ambulance Services High Acuity Response Unit (HARU) and what makes it successful 👉bit.ly/3dfovXd #SMACC2019 #CodaPodcast

What do these two have in common? @FatamboGary highlights that both have a similar blood volume. Be very aware of that. Small amount of blood can be a lot for a paed. Bring soaked dressings to hospital for weighing. #PARAPEM20

Dr @alaanibrahim (#PEM Director of Training) opened #PARAPEM20 this morning and is now finishing off by explaining paediatric rash recognition. Teaching #paramedics about skin rash classifications; what is a dangerous rash?

Dr Dan Bodnar reminds us, “cool the burn, warm the patient”. Large study showed cooling burn for over 20 mins under cold water reduces: - rates of skin grafts, - thickness of burn, - hospital admissions and - operating room interventions. #PARAPEM20
