Hey folks, Scott Wangart here and this is an M Crit podcast. Today on the podcast, we're going to follow up on the

primer episode I did on the AMax4 protocol for crashing anaphylaxis in asthma. This was a protocol

invented by Ben McKenzie, an emergency physician whose son tragically died from the mismanagement of a

crashing anaphylaxis in asthma case. The plan was to do the initial episode to get all of the

basics out there so that I could bring Ben onto the podcast and discuss a deeper dive,

intricacies, things that are I think more subtle and I think that's what we did and I really,

really love this episode. I have so much admiration for Ben and I think you will too after hearing

his story and the work he has done for these critically ill patients. So let's get right to

the show. But of course, you know you're not going to get right to the show because what you're

listening to is a free episode. This one's the full episode. I'm not going to cut you off on this

one, but you do have to listen to my plea, my real desire for your patients to be as safe as

possible when they experience critical illness in your hospital and the way to do that is for you to

have the most cutting-edge information on resuscitation and acute critical care. Now you're getting this

full episode for free, but there's a bunch of M-credit episodes that are curtailed after seven or

eight minutes, meaning you're only getting a tiny portion of the goodness that will save your

patient's lives that will keep you up to date on the most cutting-edge literature in resuscitation

and acute critical care. So if you don't want to hear these messages again, but more importantly,

if you want to protect your patients, feel good about your resuscitative skills,

then you should join M-credit. All you have to do is go to M-credit.org slash join,

you'll pay a minimal fee compared to the other CME out there. And then your hospital can reimburse

you or you could write it off on your taxes. So give yourself a little critical care gift,

go to M-credit.org slash join and become a member. All right, let's get to the show.
