Join us this Friday at 11 AM EST for a special edition of the Florida EMS Webinar. We'll have world's most renowned authors on CPR induced consciousness (CPRIC), straight from Australia, discussing their groundbreaking paper! 🇦🇺📚 Register (free): us06web.zoom.us/meeting/regist… @NAEMSP









Your patient is in cardiac arrest, but after 1 minute of high-quality chest compressions, he begins to move his arms. What do you do? New data published on the topic which we summarize here: linkedin.com/feed/update/ur…

CPR induced consciousness can be quite confronting and result in suboptimal care as Jack explained in his presentation. His team recruited an international panel to look at a definition, management plan and data reporting framework @AlexOlaussen #ACPIC23

Now, this is some freaky 💩. The question, now, is whether we should be administering sedative/hypnotics to patients during CPR. While we need more data, this high-quality prospective study suggests yes. Of the 28 available for interview: -39% had recall, most commonly emergence sensations, followed by a dream-like state -one patient was able to repeat back to them the audio recording they played in their ears during CPR -one patient described the doctor's appearance running the code -22% had near-normal EEG recordings sustained up to 60 minutes into CPR -seizure-like activity was seen in 24% of EEGs resuscitationjournal.com/article/S0300-… #emergency #emergencymedicine #icu #criticalcare #cpr #heart #life #health #survivor #foamed #foamcc #science #data #research #armyemdoc #medtwitter
