In this episode of the St Emlyn's podcast, Iain Beardsell and Simon Carley provide a comprehensive update for October 2024. They discuss key blog posts covering diverse medical topics, including highlights from the Royal College of Emergency Medicine's academic science conference focusing on toxicology, high-potency opioids, novel benzodiazepines, and the use of flumazenil. They also explore the Green ED project and the impact of climate change on healthcare. Additionally, they delve into recent research on ventricular fibrillation pad positions, the use of tranexamic acid (TXA) in trauma care, and the importance of maintaining a positive outlook amidst winter challenges by seeking small wins and engaging in enjoyable aspects of emergency medicine. The episode offers valuable insights and updates for emergency medicine professionals. 00:00 Welcome and Introduction 01:27 Highlights from the Royal College of Emergency Medicine Conference 01:50 Toxicology Insights: High Potency Opioids and Benzodiazepines 05:11 Climate Change and Healthcare: The Green ED Project 08:23 Medical Conferences: A Phoenix from the Ashes 10:38 Ventricular Fibrillation and Pad Position: New Insights 17:22 Tranexamic Acid (TXA) in Trauma Care 24:01 Maintaining Positivity in Challenging Times

A simplified approach to mini mitral surgery: No clamp, no fib, just a-rest. The use of Port Access is expensive and prolonged Ventricular Fibrillation is potentially damaging to the heart. We propose a simplified approach to minimally invasive mitral valve surgery that maintains coronary perfusion and provides a relaxed, quiet heart.

Background Information: Double external defibrillation (DED) is an intervention often used to treat refractory ventricular fibrillation (RVF). This procedure involves applying another set of pads attached to a second defibrillator to a patient and shocking them in hopes of terminating the rhythm. At REBEL EM, we've done an extensive write up that details some of ...

Performing good CPR, and delivering a shock as soon as possible to a patient in Ventricular Fibrillation or pulseless V-Tach are the two most critical interventions that have been shown to increase survival from sudden cardiac arrest. To aid in the rapid delivery of a shock, an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) should be used in settings where a full monitor/defibrillator isn't available. Research has demonstrated significantly better out of hospital cardiac arrest survival outcomes in communities with robust public CPR training and public access/first responder AEDs.

Written By: Caleb Dusdal Peer Review: Thomsen D'hont https://thegenerehlist.ca/2020/11/01/episode-two-acls-part-i/www.thegenerehlist.ca 1. Keep up to date with ACLS recommendations 2. Know how to recognize and defibrillate a patient with Ventricular Fibrillation, or ventricular tachycardia that is either pulseless or symptomatic. 3. Be able to diagnose worrysome arrhythmias such as: a. Ventricular tachycardia b. Ventricular fibrillation c. Supraventricular tachycardia d. Atrial fibrillation e. Second and third-degree heart block 4. Know when to suspect a few specific causes of arrhythmias, even before confirmatory testing. a. Hyperkalemia b. Digoxin toxicity c. Cocaine intoxication 5. Know how and when to ensure adequate ventilation and secure the airway in a timely manner 6. In patients who do require resuscitation, you want to be able to assess the context to help decide when stopping resuscitation is the most appropriate decision. 7. Patients who arrest or are at risk of arresting, with serious medical problems or end stage disease, you need to know how and when to discuss code status and making end-of-life decisions 8. Ensure you attend to the family members as well, both during and after resuscitation the patient. Eg. Counselling availability, whether or not they are present in the code, etc. 9. In paediatric resuscitation, know what resources you can use to determine the correct drug dosing and tube sizes. As well as how to use these.
Contributor: Ricky Dhaliwal, MD, JD Educational Pearls: Ventricular Fibrillation (VF) is a potentially fatal cardiac arrhythmia; Refractory VF even more so Epinephrine stimulates alpha and beta receptors which increase sympathetic tone, thereby increasing cardiac oxygen demand and myocardial calcium levels which can cause new arrhythmias, particularly a problem during resuscitation Esmolol (or any beta blocker) can be used in VF refractory to defibrillation, epinephrine and amiodarone in a last-ditch effort. Esmolol in the setting of epinephrine can help prevent some of these known effects from repeated beta stimulation Dosing esmolol for refractory VF: 500mcg/kg bolus, followed by drip (max typically 1000 mcg/kg/min) Esmolol is associated with improved mortality in ACLS care in refractory VF References Long DA, Long B, April MD.

If anyone has experienced the rollercoaster of running it's Rachel Allworth. Alliteration aside, Rachel has evolved from a certified exercise dodger to a passionate ultramarathon runner. She has progressed even further in her role as a coach and valued mentor to the popular group Rachel's Runners. Earlier in 2020 Rachel's life hit a terrifying corner when she experienced, what can only be described as, a near death experience. Her heart raced to 226 beats per minute and remained unchanged as she was rushed to hospital and diagnosed with Ventricular Fibrillation. Since having a defib unit permanently implanted in her chest, Rachel has been told "you'll never run again". Listen in to find out how the ever-positive Rachel deals with such a frightening event and life changing news. Inspiring stuff!

I met up with Mike Betzner at North York General's Update in EM Conference in Toronto. He is the medical director of Air Transport STARS air ambulance out of Calgary and an amazing speaker on the national lecturing circuit. His Best Case Ever on Chloral Hydrate poisoning & cardiac arrest describes a young man in cardiac arrest with resistant Ventricular Fibrillation and Torsades de Pointes. There is only one class of drugs that can get him back into normal sinus rhythm. Dr. Betzner describes how he recognized that this patient was suffering from Chloral Hydrate poisoning and how he saved his life with one simple intervention.
