Welcome to the Recess Room podcast.

Five, four, three, two, one, fire.

Hi, and welcome back to the Recess Room podcast. I'm Simon Lang.

I'm Rob Fenwick, and I'm James Yates.

And this is a new of what we hope is going to be a regular series of

podcast which we're going to be calling Roadside to the Recess Room, which is here to really sort of

bring together the aspects of paramedicine, pre-hospital care and emergency medicine and really try and

draw on our different backgrounds. So I'm an emergency medicine consultant. James is

a critical care paramedic and Rob is an ACP with a nursing background. So we're really hoping

draw together all those backgrounds, the different skill sets and place it together talking about

different topics. I am really excited about this, Simon. I think it's going to be a fantastic

addition to the Recess Room podcast and I'm really looking forward to these becoming a regular feature. Yep. And from the paramedic perspective,

I think this is a fantastic opportunity to break down some of the barriers that may potentially

be there between the pre-hospital and the hospital phases, help us all to learn from each other

and ultimately, I guess, smooth the care of the patient and

enhance their care. So we would love to hear your feedback from this because we really want

to deliver what is useful to you guys out there that are listening. We're going to start off

with the topic of acute heart failure. It is a huge topic and we hope to do it some justice.

There will be a list, an extensive list, which is

piling up as we sit here, have dozens of references and we hope that you won't just take

our word for it, but you're going to have a look at those references, those guidelines and those

papers yourself and make up your own mind. But get in touch with other topics that you want to see
