Summary
Welcome back to May's papers of the month!
First up this month we'll be looking at an RCT focussed on prehospital intra-arrest management and comparing an early move in arrest towards ECMO-CPR and invasive treatment, versus remaining on scene continuing ALS until achieving a ROSC. Does E-CPR hold the promise we are hoping for?
Next up we take a look at another RCT on pad placement for electrical Cardioversion-BMI of AF, are antero-posterior pads superior to the standard antero-lateral position?
Finally we look at the potential for remote supervision of pre-hospital ultrasound, has technology moved the bar in what can be achieved?
Once again we'd love to hear any thoughts or feedback either on the website or via twitter @TheResusRoom.

| 0:03.5 | Five, four, three, two, one, fire. |
| 0:12.0 | So hi, and welcome back to the recess room podcast. |
| 0:15.5 | I'm Simon Lang. |
| 0:16.9 | And I'm Rob Fenwick. |

| 0:23.1 | Yes, we are, Simon Lang. |

| 0:32.7 | We have got one looking at ECMO and other advanced resuscitation methods in cardiac arrest, |
| 0:38.5 | one looking at pad positioning in cardioversion for AF, |
| 0:42.6 | and finally one about remote real-time supervision of pre-hospital ultrasound. |
| 0:48.0 | So no matter what, your background or your involvement in emergency care, |
| 0:51.8 | there's hopefully going to be something of interest in this month's episode. |
| 0:55.2 | Yeah, absolutely. And echo your thoughts about the prep for the Cardiacrest Masterclass on the 6th of May. |
| 1:00.9 | Really look forward to that. But I've got to be honest, I've been a little bit distracted. |
| 1:05.0 | I've just ordered my first cylinder mower. So the stripes are going to be going absolutely off the chart. |
| 1:12.9 | Tragic. Tragic. |
| 1:15.7 | The only thing that's tragic, mate, is going to be the comparison between your and my lawns, I think. |
| 1:19.9 | Anyway, we're definitely reaching us at an age bracket in the Lang household. |
| 1:24.7 | Oh, lawn bunt. |
| 1:26.1 | Back to what we're here about. |
