We urgently need your help. With Cambridge Airport closing, we’ll soon lose one of the bases, and with it the ability to deliver lifesaving care from the heart of the region. This puts half of our service at risk. Donate to our Cambridge Base Appeal 👉 pulse.ly/hvxflzu85u

1/ New from @EAAARAID in @SJTREM: observational review of Penthrox for prehospital fracture/dislocation manipulation & reduction in HEMS practice. In selected limb trauma, methoxyflurane supported successful M&R without IV procedural sedation in more than half of patients.

Our latest systematic review is now live in @EmergencyMedBMJ. We looked at the association between intra-arrest DBP & CPP and ROSC. The data supports a move toward physiology-guided CPR, with 35mmHg DBP emerging as a potential target. @EMManchester 📄doi.org/10.1136/emermed-2025…

New from the EAAA RAID team with @EastAngliAirAmb, @EHAAT_ and @Magpas_Charity, published open access in @JAMANetworkOpen: post-intubation hypotension after prehospital RSI in severe TBI is strongly associated with higher 30-day mortality. tinyurl.com/RAID-JAMA

“Physiology-Guided CPR” 🚨🚨🚨 The inclusion of “physiology-guided CPR” in the ERC resuscitation guidelines marks a significant milestone in progress. So here are my reflections on the journey we have undertaken and thoughts on the future directions #SPEAR 🧵

Time is myocardium—and brain. Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) delivers the greatest survival benefit when reperfusion is achieved within 45 minutes. @kosmopolitanMD @DYannopoulos ahajournals.org/doi/full/10.…

Paracetamol is the first choice of painkiller if you're pregnant and is still considered the safest choice of pain relief during pregnancy. There is no evidence it causes autism in children. Kate Brintworth, our Chief Midwifery Officer, explains more 🎥

1/ 🚑 Excited to share our latest publication in @Anaes_Journal! In prehospital major trauma patients with severe haemorrhagic shock, when peripheral IV access fails, a large-bore trauma line can be life-saving. 🚁

Looks like we need a decent DBP to get ROSC. About 35mmHg, and if you don't measure it, how do you know?? Read more here. stemlynsblog.org/jc-the-asso…

The conflation between Emergency Medicine and the Emergency Department is terrible for our specialty - bad for patients and bad for staff training and retention. My thoughts from over a year ago remain unchanged, perhaps emboldened…
