How to Choose the Right Vasopressor for Your RV

Doctor Jarrod Mosier is a bit of a polymath, and we were delighted he could squeeze us into his busy life. His day jobs include Intensive Care Medicine and Emergency medicine in Tucson, where he is a professor (at the other UofA: Arizona).He is an expert in all aspects of airway management, ranging from the physiologically difficult airway, through the importance of first pass success, including how to optimize for intubation, the roles of ultrasound and extracorporeal support, and all the way to safe extubation. This was the focus of our wide-ranging entertaining conversation. When away from work Jarrod throws a mean football, dotes on his two kids, and loves getting up into the mountains to snap superb nature photographs.
