Public access defibrillation works when devices are accessible and readily deployed. Best of luck to the cyclist - but huge shout out to the dental clinic and it’s staff. #AED #PAD #CallPushBlow fb.watch/i9XrdJk_gr/?mi…
And in the same 12 hours in #southaustralia, we have another deployment of an #AED for #SCA and #emergencyresponders used a #defib as part of cardiac arrest management. @StJohn_SA #callpushblow #chainofsurvival fb.watch/ia8ltxYIT2/?mi…

As part of the @ILCOR_org Pediatric life support taskforce we reviewed evidence for accuracy of tests for predicting GOOD neurological outcome following #Cardiacarrest in children

#Prediction of good neurological outcome is a key role for #PedsICU clinicians in #postarrestcare phase of #chainofsurvival.
Improving prognostic #uncertainty may help clinicians choose treatments, counsel families, and answer accurately, "Will my child be OK?“

#NeuroPICU
The #PLS taskforce conducted a #systematicreview of literature reporting prognostic tests used in children after cardiac arrest.
Four types of tests were evaluated:
*Clinical examination
*Blood biomarkers
*Electrophysiology
*Brain Imaging

First up @abbamamma discussing the size of the problem with dispatchers/HCPs not being exposed to high loads of cardiac arrest calls and seizure activity a confusing factor #RESUS20
Seizures are hard for lay responders and HCPs to recognise. You can check a pulse as an indication of cardiac arrest but this is hard to teach lay rescuers. Plus arrhythmia may cause a seizure. How do we tackle this?? #RESUS20 #CPR
Can AI help our dispatchers when trying to multi task: taking the call, talking to lay rescuer, dispatching EMS #RESUS20 is protocol with specific training or level of medical training a better system?
