Active project recruiting sites & participants! Calling #CPR instructors, nurse educators, training officers with CPR manikin(s) and feedback device(s). p Join this prone CPR quality project. rescuescience.org/prone-comp…. #FOAMed #FOAMcc #FOAMems #FOANed #NurseTwitter #MedTwitter
Please share this exciting #cardiacarrest research priority setting with patients/families and caregivers. #Survivor #emsproud #Nursing #Emergency surveymonkey.com/r/LJP5626
Do you want to participate in Cardiac Arrest Research Priority Setting? This short survey for survivors, caregivers and families is setting the research agenda. Please share and retweet. #cardiacarrest #FOAMed #FOAMcc #FOANed surveymonkey.com/r/LJP5626
Descriptive analysis of out of hospital cardiac arrest videos poster presented at #CAEP18 Responders need to know cardiac arrests don't all look the same and many involve seizure and agonal breathing. #FOAMed #FOANed #FOAMcc #FOAMems xitter.cf/matthewjdouma/status/1…
Our team studied >800 public online videos of cardiac arrest to improve recognition and response. We created a high-def and verified database of 165 videos. Responders need to know arrests often look like seizure and gasping rescuescience.org/2018/05/28…
Junctional hemorrhage is a leading cause of potentially survivable traumatic death. Proximal external aortic compression (PEAC) followed by junctional tourniquet and/or REBOA may be a potential treatment pathway #FOAMems #FOAMed #trauma xitter.cf/matthewjdouma/status/1…
Proximal external aortic compression (PEAC) for life-threatening junctional hemorrhage. A potentially life-saving maneuver for an injury pattern with few management options. Check out our poster presented at #CAEP2018 rescuescience.org/2018/05/28…

Our team thinks automated video surveillance can detect medical emergencies such as cardiac arrest and activate the emergency response system. New paper out. Available for free for 50 days here authors.elsevier.com/a/1WsVO… #resuscitation
In lab w/ all supplies at hand, it took expert nurses 5 - 7 min to get high conc pressor infusions up and running (from order to med exiting cannula). Clinical settings can be 3 to 4 times longer. Be prepared w/ push pressor and maximize your #humanfactors doi.org/10.1016/j.jcrc.2017.…

Know your mannitol dose: If wanted to give 1g/kg of mannitol to a 70Kg person it would be 700ml of 10% or 350ml of 20% mannitol. In practice 200ml of 20% would be a reasonable FFICM exam starter. Remember may crystallise when cold. xitter.cf/RescueScience/status/9…
Working quickly, stress and pressure to proceed lead to #medicationerrors (doi.org/10.1002/aorn.12005). Mannitol in neurocrisis is a common source of #resuscitation med delay and error. 20% = 20g/100mL #humanfactors #medicationsafety #FOANed #FOAMed

Are you using arterial lines during CPR?
Targeting coronary perfusion pressure (or diastolic BP) is supported by animal and human data and an AHA consensus.
Aim for DBP >25 mmHg

Fantastic use of google trends to track #CPR health seeking behavior. The next question is how to harness #SoMe to deliver the education to those who need it? #FOAMed #FOANed #Nursing xitter.cf/RescueScience/status/9…
Actress #Sridevi death in Feb 2018 has resulted in highest #cardiacarrest related search volumes on Google, ever! Now is time for outreach, teaching and fundraising in the SE Asian community. @HeartNews @TheHSF @TheBHF @TheHSF @WeAreSCAUK rescuescience.org/2018/03/26…

1st English case series of CPR is for chloroform toxicity. July 1868, British Journal of Dental Science. "forcible pressure made; the hands then being suddenly removed, the chest was allowed to expand by its own elasticity" #resuscitationscience
