Summary

Welcome back to June 2025's papers podcast!

Having been cynical about CPR feedback devices in the past we take a look at a recent paper on their use and their potential impact to both ROSC and survival for patients, when compared to standard practice; is it time to integrate them more definitively into our practice?

Next up we take another look at the use of adrenaline in traumatic arrest. We've covered this before and there's some interesting data and discussion to be had around the topic and the paper.

Finally, we all know about the unprecidented pressure on ED’s and all forms of healthcare at the moment. Many patients waiting for hours and hours to be seen. But there may be systems and routes by which others can be identified with lower acuity presentations that may not need to wait overnight for long periods, and our final paper looks at this with a paper on 'deflection'.

Once again we’d love to hear any thoughts or feedback either on the website or via X @TheResusRoom!

0:00.0	Welcome to the recess room podcast.
0:03.5	Five, four, three, two, one, fire.
0:12.4	So hi and welcome back to the recess room podcast.

0:17.1	And I'm Rob Fenwick.
0:18.0	And this is June 2025's Papers of the Month.
0:22.7	Yes, it definitely is June.
0:24.3	The sun is out here.
0:25.7	And what better way to top up your tan with an appropriate layer of sun protection, of course,
0:30.7	than to kick back and listen to us to Natter on about some papers.
0:35.2	Well, I honestly can't think of a better way to spend 30 minutes of
0:38.3	my time, which is probably quite tragic. So do send any suggestions you might have about other
0:43.6	ways to spend the summer in the Northern Hemisphere. But anyway, we've been on the lookout for
0:49.4	three papers and we've got them for you ready to digest. So first up we've got the role of CPR feedback
0:55.6	devices in the survival of cardiac arrest patients. This is fascinating. Wait till you hear the results
1:01.8	of this bad boy. Then we're on to looking at adrenaline for traumatic cardiac arrest.
1:07.0	And finally, well, we'll have a little look at something called Emergency Department
1:11.8	overnight deflection. So stay tuned, folks. Indeed. And I'm absolutely sick to death of seeing
1:18.2	your face because not only we're doing this podcast, but we've just recorded a foam frat episode,
1:22.6	which we're actually pretty pleased with for those of you that subscribe to it. And also
