Welcome to the Recess Room podcast.

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

So hi and welcome back to the Recess Room podcast. I'm Simon Lang.

And I'm Rob Fenwick.

And this is April's Papers of the Month. It is indeed,

Happy Easter, Simon. Happy Easter indeed, Robert, yes. Chocolate celebrations are plenty. So we've got,

as always, three topical papers that caught our eye in the last month. And we've got a bit of a treat

this month because we've got actually a primary author who's come on the podcast, but more of that in a bit. So the topics we've got a bit of a treat this month because we've got actually a primary author who's

come on the podcast, but more of that in a bit. So the topics we're going to be covering,

we're having a little think about contrast-induced neopathy. And those scans that require

iodinated contrast, whether or not we need to be filling patients up prophylactically with

normal saline before and after their scans.

And then we're going to be looking at pre-hospital transfusion of blood.

And lastly, we've got a paper on pre-hospital critical care teams and whether or not

the presence of such teams at a cardiac arrest leads to better patient outcomes.

Very good. Three nice topics.

So before we crack into those papers,

a big thanks once again to our sponsors,

AdPrak, who make the whole podcast possible.

And they're being able to fund some scholarships

for nurses to become emergency nurse practitioners,

and that's on the job training
