Join Iain Beardsell and Liz Crowe in an engaging discussion with Alice Hutton, an emergency physician from Paris, at Tactical Trauma 24 in Sundsvall, Sweden.
The episode delves into the implementation and logistics of pre-hospital eCPR (Extracorporeal Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) by SAMU in Paris. Alice shares insights from her PhD research on refractory cardiac arrest and discusses the use of therapeutic hypothermia, including experimental approaches like total liquid ventilation.
Key topics include team composition, decision-making for patient eligibility, real-time management strategies, bypassing traditional emergency rooms for specialized facilities, and the challenges of scene management, family communication, and post-event debriefing.
