Exploring Sedation Strategies in Prehospital Care

In this episode of the St Emlyn's Podcast, Iain Beardsell and Simon Carley revisit January's  blog posts and podcasts, covering several seminal studies relevant to emergency and pre-hospital care.

Topics include the Sub 30 Feasibility Study on pre-hospital ECMO, comparisons of pre-hospital versus in-hospital emergency anaesthesia, variations in maintenance of pre-hospital anaesthesia in trauma patients, and the effectiveness of physician-led pre-hospital teams.

They also discuss the economic implications of advanced pre-hospital interventions and highlight reviews from the London Trauma Conference.
