About this episode
Welcome back after the summer break!
Three more papers for you to feast your ears on this month and as always make sure you go and check them out yourselves after you've had a listen!
First up, following on really nicely from the DOSE-VF paper on dual sequential defibrillation we take a look at the paper that looks at the association between shock interval and VF termination. We might be biased but this shines a light on an area that could make a huge difference to the outcomes for patients with refractory VF!
Next; when you're seeing a patient with an upper GI bleed, which scoring/prognostication tool do you use and is it the best? We cover a paper that looks at exactly this question.
Finally we look at whether TXA predisposes patients to a higher risk of venous thromboembolism and whether it might affect our practice patterns.
Once again we'd love to hear any thoughts or feedback either on the website or via X @TheResusRoom!
