Enrolled 789 patients RePHILL Study Question and Methods: Multicenter RCT out of the UK that investigated prehospital resuscitation using PRBCs and plasma versus normal saline to improve tissue perfusion or mortality in adult trauma patients with hemorrhagic shock. The gang gets back together and discusses new resuscitation data from 2022.
We could not resuscitate her, but we did have excellent perfusion with LUCAS CPR, such that pulse oximetry had excellent waveform and 100% saturations, end tidal CO2 was 35, and cerebral perfusion monitoring was near normal throughout the attempted resuscitation. There is particularly little on how to treat when the K is less than 2.0,
Internal potassium balance and the control of the plasma potassium concentration. Here is his ED ECG: There is obvious infero-posterior STEMI. What are you worried about in addition to his STEMI? The corrected QT interval is extremely long, about 500 ms. This suggests an electrolyte abnormality or a medication effect (acquired long QT).
Internal potassium balance and the control of the plasma potassium concentration. This is pathognomonic of hyperkalemia (I suppose it could be due to a massive overdose of a sodium channel blocking drug, maybe). Is it ventricular tachycardia (VT) due to hyperK or is it a supraventricular rhythm with hyperK?
Resuscitating patients with low titer O whole blood or with component therapy in a ratio of 1:1:1, with packed red blood cells, platelets, and plasma, is impactful as it will help promote the restoration of circulation and add platelets and hemoglobin to the depleted store. Regardless, she complains of sudden and severe shortness of breath.
Success at intubation likely takes more time and practice than other procedures, as shown in recent research on ED residents and their success rate at intubating, measured as a function of their total number of intubations (See Figure 1). Practice may not achieve perfection, but it will make you better. fiber optic through the nose).
