The Resus Room

So we're back with some superb topics this month; Early or late intubation in ICU patients, which is associated with worse outcomes? What are the predictors of a poor outcome in patients presenting with syncope? Does a cervical collar result in a demonstrable raise in ICP viewed by ultrasound? Make sure you take a look at the papers yourself, they certainly provide food for thought and raise important questions in our practice Let us know any thoughts and feedback you have on the podcast and thanks for your support with the podcast Enjoy!
