CPOC has responded to the government’s ‘Change NHS’ consultation, calling for perioperative care to be prioritised in the 10-Year Health Plan. This will boost NHS productivity, improve efficiency, empower patients, and lead to better patient outcomes.

Interesting paper about peripheral vs central vasopressors in real world sepsis treatment (I LOVE a Sankey diagram): - wide variation by hospital - equivalent outcomes - most received PIV pressors at 6 hrs - most who still required pressors at day 4 had a CVC (3% still used PIV?)
How commonly are vasopressors initiated through peripheral IV lines in routine practice, and is this route associated with in-hospital mortality? Read the original research findings in the April issue: hubs.la/Q02tS_pK0 #JournalCHEST #MedEd
