Recorded an episode of the SGEM at the EM conference in Broome, Australia, today with guest skeptic Dr. Casey Parker.

Talk on critical appraisal today in Broome, Australia.

Of course this is patient-dependent; and if human-resource-limited, will give real-time decision-making feedback for patient who is genuinely resuscitateable (VT/VF; younger patients). I think the take home is that being rural with limited resources doesn’t preclude good quality critical care.

Rural Resus tip no.6 from @emcrit.bsky.social at #SSEM25 - art line (under ultrasound guidance) is invaluable for arrests - you can use it for pulse checks, adjusted dose adrenaline, modification of mechanical CPR positioning… definitely far more reliable than pulse checks by hand #FOAMed #FOAMSky

Rural Resus tip no.5 from @emcrit.bsky.social at #SSEM25 - use ultrasound in arrest to answer specific questions about reversible causes - cardiac tamponade? AAA? Pneumothorax? #FOAMed #FOAMSky

Rural Resus tip no.4 from @emcrit.bsky.social at #SSEM25 - supraglottic airway placement permits us to deprioritise intubation in arrest and keeps us hands-free in human-resource-limited settings.

Rural Resus tip no.2 from @emcrit.bsky.social at #SSEM25 - mechanical CPR is a game changer in human-resource-stretched environments

Rural Resus tip no.3 - establish good ongoing ALS in the Resus bay before taking ambulance handover #FOAMed #FOAMSky

Rural Resus tip no.1 from @emcrit.bsky.social - make the nurses the code/arrest team leader (there’s a great video on this here: youtu.be/yNN0FhPKHpY?... #FOAMed #FOAMSky)

This morning in Rubibi/Broome, I get to follow @emcrit.bsky.social and @thesgem.bsky.social when I talk about the work @cliffreid.bsky.social and I have been doing on paediatric eFONA

JC: Ketamine or Midazolam as first choice for Paediatric Status Epilepticus? St Emlyn’s Background Paediatric generalised convulsive status epilepticus (GCSE) are some thing we see a fair amount of in Virchester. Many are a result of febrile seizures, but as we are a tertiary centre we see the full range of causes presenting to PED. Seizures that fail to stop spontaneously within five minutes are much less likely. to terminate without treatment and may lead to progressive neuronal injury, worsening outcomes, and, in some cases, death.

Can ketamine improve seizure control in children with status epilepticus? We critically review the Ket-Mid trial and discuss what. it means for UK emergency practice.

Fantastic course, wonderful faculty and a really nice venue. 10/10 recommend!

An LMA? A video laryngoscope? Calling a surgeon? This clip from ResusX shows why there's only one life-saving answer: an emergent cricothyroidotomy. Your patient's life depends on knowing this critical skill.

Kintsugi The way presentations are currently constructed, delivered and received is not the result of laziness on the part of presenter or audience. Presentations are built with effort, intention and time but with a concept that breaks the result. The Japanese art of kintsugi recognises the value of a piece of pottery and in its damage, it is repaired, often with gold. Presentations are broken but should not be thrown in the trash. They can be repaired with kintsugi and returned to intended function and experiences of real value.
