Cardiac Arrest Update & the Syndromes of Arrest
Are Extraglottic Airways Harmful in Cardiac Arrest?
Are we creating a blockage of blood flow to the brain with EGAs in cardiac arrest?
IBCC – Neuroprognostication after cardiac arrest
Neuroprognostication following cardiac arrest is one of the most important responsibilities of the ICU team. This process begins as soon as ROSC is achieved, with the avoidance of confounding factors (e.g., sedatives and opioids). An organized, multimodal approach is essential. Incidentally, strategies which are aimed at accurate neuroprognostication will also facilitate early awakening – and as […]

IBCC chapter & cast: Post-cardiac arrest management
Post-cardiac arrest management has undergone substantial revisions within the past several years, particularly with regards to temperature management. This remains an area of active controversy and investigation, with the TTM-2 trial currently underway. Although equipoise still exists, this chapter describes a streamlined 36C approach which is based on evidence, guidelines, and experience with various strategies. […]
EMCrit 130 – Hemodynamic-Directed Dosing of Epinephrine for Cardiac Arrest
Today on the podcast, I address the last little bit from my SMACC lecture on the new management of the intra-arrest: hemodynamic, individualized dosing of epinephrine.
PulmCrit Wee – Prophylactic antibiotics after cardiac arrest?
background Pneumonia after cardiac arrest is problematic for several reasons: Many patients aspirate during cardiac arrest. Patients are intubated and mechanically ventilated, usually with poor mental status – conditions which do not promote secretion clearance. Early diagnosis of pneumonia is impossible for many reasons (inability to measure a fever due to therapeutic temperature monitoring, inability […]
