This episode features  Jo-Anne J. Kelly  (Palliative Care South East, Narre Warren, VIC, Australia (Palliative Care South East, Narre Warren, VIC, Australia) and Dr Karen Aisling Griffin (Palliative Care South East, Narre Warren, VIC, Australia, Peninsula Health, Frankston, VIC, Australia)   What is already known about this topic? Phenobarbital loading in the adult palliative cohort for refractory symptom management has been used for many years. However, there is little evidence, nor a guideline for palliative sedation for children at home.   What does this paper add? An initial loading dose of phenobarbital may provide enhanced and quicker relief of refractory symptoms in the paediatric palliative care cohort receiving home-based terminal care.   Implications for practice, theory, or policy? Further research is required to determine the efficacy of, and guidelines for administration of, a loading dose of phenobarbital for paediatric palliative care patients in the terminal phase, presenting with intractable symptoms.   Full paper available from:     https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/02692163251395457   If you would like to record a podcast about your published (or accepted) Palliative Medicine paper, please contact Dr Amara Nwosu:  a.nwosu@lancaster.ac.uk

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 ILCOR, the ERC and the Resuscitation Council UK and in this episode we break down exactly what's new, what's stayed the same, and how it all fits into day-to-day practice. Across the board the 2025 updates represent evolution, a steady refinement of evidence rather than wholesale change. Adult ALS remains rooted in early recognition, high-quality compressions and rapid defibrillation, but you'll notice sharper guidance around ventilation, pad positioning, and the sequence of vascular access and drugs. There's a new section on physiology-guided CPR and the emerging science behind arterial-line-driven resuscitation as we covered in the SPEAR epsiode. We also take a look at the special circumstances algorithms from hypothermia to traumatic and obstetric arrest and discuss how an emphasis on reversible causes, data-driven debriefing and system performance might reshape post-event learning.  Paediatric and newborn life support see subtle but important refinements too, including pad placement, shock energy escalation, simplification of adrenaline timings and a new Out-of-Hospital Newborn Life Support algorithm aimed squarely at the pre-hospital world. All this and more in the episode! Once again we'd love to hear any thoughts or feedback either on the website or via X @TheResusRoom! Simon, Rob & James

Vic speaks with Ben and two special guests about their recent papers on ‘outreach simulation', and how they used educational courses on Paediatric resuscitation around rural and regional Qld to understand system challenges faced by these sites. The conversation illustrates the importance of program philosophy, long term relationships and systematic approaches to identifying and following up system challenges.   Alex St-Onge-St-Hilaire is a paediatric emergency medicine physician and co-director of the simulation fellowship at KidSIM, based at the Alberta Children's Hospital in Canada. Alex recently completed a fellowship in simulation education trained with the STORK team   Louise Dodson is a Simulation Nurse Educator with the Children's Health Queensland STORK team. She is a paediatric emergency nurse by trade and helped develop the hospital wide simulation program at the Royal Children's Hospital in Brisbane around 20 years ago.    Ben Symon (as well as being a Simulcast Co-producer!)  is a simulation consultant for STORK, where he leads the fellowship program and coordinates resource and course development.    Paediatric resuscitation in regional Queensland: A simulation informed biopsy of current system challenges.
