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.

According to the AHA 2005 on CPR & ERC, it says:"Absorption and subsequent achievement of maximum plasma concentration after subcutaneous administration is slower and may be significantly delayed with shock. IM vs SC - which is preferred? Thus, intramuscular (IM) administration is favored."Thus,

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. The estimated deficit associated with a serum decrease from 4.0 mEq/L to 3.0

Internal potassium balance and the control of the plasma potassium concentration. The estimated deficit associated with a serum decrease from 4.0 mEq/L is 100-200 mEq of total body K, and from 3.0 the associated loss is double, at 200-400 mEq.* [ Sterns RH, et al. Medicine (Baltimore) 1981;60:339-54].
