YAA governance meeting, 26 colleagues in the room - paramedics, doctors, pilots, technical crew members. A full day of case discussions, paper reviews and teaching 😀

Celebrating being part of the amazing EAAA team at the Sparkle in Spring ball with my fantastic consultant colleagues

Resus Pieces I doubt it very much for trauma due to patient mix and geography. The case for non traumatic / medical cardiac arrest seems increasingly compelling so watch this space. Colleagues at EAAA RAID Group are working on this so things in the region (and wider EndoVascular resuscitation and Trauma Management ) looking good.

This week's #PhotoOfTheWeek was taken by supporter Sam Burnett, when our crew attended an incident in G-YAAA, landing at Beverley Town Cricket Club.

A fantastic summary of 5 papers with high impact

Just had a preview of the EMTACCS #SPEAR Course in Bruges 🇧🇪

Carl Haentjens has done a phenomenal job to curate a 2 day resuscitation masterclass that goes beyond ALS with faculty who are leading the advancement of OHCA across Europe

Can’t wait!

Near Future directions resuscitation is going:

- intra arrest monitoring (echo+IBP) to optimise resus
- exploring tissue & cell targeted therapies (AMLS/SNAL)
- early mechanical perfusion (ECLS/SAAP etc)
- improving tissue perfusion (eg epi dosing)
- optimising ⚡️ therapy (DSD)

Specialist Percutaneous Emergency Aortic Resuscitation provides real-time feedback regarding quality of CPR being delivered to ensure adequate blood supply to the patient’s brain & heart as demonstrated in this excellent video ⁦⁦@EastAngliAirAmb⁩ youtu.be/ImXFOHNRaRc?si…

Natalie Kruit when building #ECPR capability concentrate on upskilling a small group to build individual expertise and institutional know how.

The team needs to have an adequate “dose” of patients which isn’t possible with a large number of operators. Think 5 cannulators not 50!
