Thanks to my co-authors Jon Barratt Paul Rees Rob Major who developed this progressive OHCA resuscitation strategy at EAAA, for involving me in this project as part of my role with EAAA RAID Group

Watch this space for a follow-up paper on the intra-arrest physiology from our SPEAR cases

Why are healthcare providers, who often don’t understand or know what can occur during critical care transport, making decisions about if it’s appropriate for our teams to transport a sick patient?-Susan Wilcox, MD #CCTMC2024 CCTMC

Don’t rely only on late signs of tension pneumothorax

It requires a combination of factors, and unlikely in a negative pressure breathing patient

Guess there are some people at #cctmc2024 who would be interested in this CCTMC AMPA #phem ⬇️⬇️⬇️⭐️ #phem

Excellent talk on Impella transport from Kate Connelly Adam Gottula : assess the patient, confirm placement before transport, actively monitor and manage your patient. CCTMC UW Health Med Flight Univ. of Wisconsin Emergency Medicine Univ. of Wisconsin EM Residency AMPA

Working w/ Hennepin EMS Medical Directors to create registry of ground & air #EMS programs using RSA. Not here to debate concept. RSA = drug-assisted placement of #extraglottic or #supraglottic or #LMA ) Message me directly NAEMSP Nat'l Assoc of EMTs AMPA Michael Perlmutter, MD Henry Wang theairwaysite

None of our organizations are all that different. We all share struggles recruiting team members, ensuring high quality care, ensuring safety, ensuring solid finances, and ensuring high staff satisfaction and work/life balance-M. Frakes #CCTMC2024 CCTMC

Intentional leadership means providing a guiding light to those you serve: be clear about purpose, the roles individuals serve, and whom you serve. Also, be driven by values and be authentic.-C. Seckel #CCTMC2024 CCTMC

When M. Frakes asked during #CCTMC2024 how many ground systems have shift length limits, <10 people had their hands up! At AirLink/VitaLink NC 12-hr shifts time-out at 14hours.

If #HEMS reliability matched @Fedex, which is 99.99% reliable…we would ahve 5+ fatal events per year! We can all agree that would be unacceptable! -M. Frakes #CCTMC2024 CCTMC

If you have ultrasound available, you should always perform transthoracic ultrasound to assess cardiac function for patients in suspected PEA. It will give you immediate data to inform decision making. -Darren Braude #CCTMC2024 CCTMC

Check out some of the #Paramedic led research presented this year during the CCTMC #scientificassembly . There was a record number of abstracts and attendees! 1/2

100% of impella patients required true critical care interventions

“You need to understand cardiogenic shock. These patients are incredibly sick”

#CCTMC2024

“It’s essential to be able to perform effective CPR in flight. The only way to do that is mechanical CPR”

#CCTMC2024

The time is now to establish criteria to consider using e-CPR to transport patients in SCA to an ECMO center. Darren Braude #CCTMC2024 CCTMC

Really good overview of Impella transport considerations by Adam Gottula and Kate Connelly

Don’t forget to use your impella rep and get their info before you begin your transport, they can help

Great talk about transporting patients on Abiomed #Impella by Kate Connelly and Adam Gottula at #CCTMC2024

Perfect follow-up to yesterday’s NEJM article: nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

The talks from this EAAA RAID Group East Anglian Air Ambulance event are still #FOAMed ⭐️

Landed in Pensacola - time for #CCTMC2024 (& some sun)!

On short final I think I saw Jace Mullen wrestling an alligator. Going to be a great few days!

Great work by 3 of our med students and one of our residents, strong showing CCTMC scientific session for Univ. of Wisconsin Emergency Medicine UW Health Med Flight Univ. of Wisconsin EM Residency Madtown Sono AMPA
