Whole blood in trauma has generated enormous interest. Today, @SWiFT_trial in @NEJM provides the clearest randomised evidence so far on whether prehospital whole blood improves outcomes in life-threatening traumatic haemorrhage: tinyurl.com/SWiFTNEJM

A major UK study has revealed that the financial burden of hip fractures extends beyond hospital walls, with social care costs often matching or exceeding medical treatment.

You get asked to do a therapeutic pleural tap for this patient.

Should we pause anti-coagulation to reduce the risk of delayed intracranial haemorrhage in anti-coagulated patients with head injury after a normal CT head? 'Probably not' according to data presented by Dr Patrick Oliver at #EUSEM2025 on behalf of @EMROxResearch.

Patient-related factors such as increasing age, male sex & higher comorbidity were associated with complications, which may explain the higher mortality & worse recovery in these groups.
