The Resus Room

Welcome back to July's Papers of the Month. This month we've got three papers that tackle some of the biggest questions we face in emergency and critical care medicine. They're all very different studies, but each one...

<p>This month's episode takes us deep into trauma care, but not just the medicine we deliver but also the systems, circumstances and social factors that shape who survives and who doesn't.</p> <p>We start by looking at...

<p>Anaphylaxis is one of those conditions we think we have got pretty well sorted. Recognise it early, give adrenaline, support the airway and circulation, and crack on. And in fairness, for the vast majority of...

<p>This month's Papers of the Month is a real mix of papers that challenge some of the things we think we know, whilst also highlighting just how important systems and processes are in improving patient care.</p> <p>We...

<p>Timely and effective defibrillation is fundamental to excellent outcomes in cardiac arrest care. But there is a growing body of evidence suggesting that how we deliver those shocks may matter just as much as when we...

<p>This month we're heading firmly into the prehospital and community space, looking at how we make decisions when the diagnostics are limited and the system around us is evolving.</p> <p>We start with a really...

<p >March's Papers of the Month is here and we've got three absolute crackers to get stuck into.</p> <p >First up, we head prehospital to explore pseudo-pulseless electrical activity. This review challenges us to...

<p>This episode is an absolute cracker! And we can say that as we've got outsider help...</p> <p>We've all been involved with patients where securing the airway with a prehospital anaesthetic feels intuitively right...

<p>Welcome back to February's Papers of the Month!</p> <p>We start this month looking a the right place to perform a prehospital anaesthetic. Traditionally we've been taught it should be somewhere with 360-degree access...

<p>Paediatric seizures are common, time-critical events and they're something most of us will deal with, whether that's pre-hospital, in the emergency department, or on the ward. They make up around 1–2% of ED...

<p>Welcome to January's Papers of the Month, which marks 10 years of the podcast!</p> <p>First up, we look at a large multicentre cohort study from the East of England examining the association between prehospital...

<p>Welcome to this special edition of Roadside to Resus where we're diving into some of the progressive and practice-defining developments in pre-hospital emergency care. This episode brings together a superb group of...

<p>December brings us to the final Papers of the Month for 2025 and we're finishing the year with three studies that challenge assumptions across critical care and resuscitation! This time questioning the role of...

<p>Whether you're just stepping into your first cardiac arrest or you've been running them since the days of paddles, this one's for you. The 2025 resuscitation guidelines have landed after further collaboration between...
