Summary

So we're back with some superb topics this month;

Early or late intubation in ICU patients, which is associated with worse outcomes?
What are the predictors of a poor outcome in patients presenting with syncope?
Does a cervical collar result in a demonstrable raise in ICP viewed by ultrasound?

Make sure you take a look at the papers yourself, they certainly provide food for thought and raise important questions in our practice

Let us know any thoughts and feedback you have on the podcast and thanks for your support with the podcast

Enjoy!

0:00.0	Welcome to the Recess Room podcast.
0:03.9	Five, four, three, two, one, fire.
0:12.8	So hi, and welcome back to the Recess Room podcast. I'm Simon Lang.
0:17.5	And I'm Rob Fenwick.

You must spend your entire life online searching for these. But actually, three good topics. We can certainly get a tea stuck into these. I do like my virtual friends. It certainly makes up for my lack of substantive friends.
0:37.9	So a tiny bit of time online, Robert.
0:40.1	Absolutely. And don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
0:44.2	My mum promised me I'd get lots of friends when I was older.
0:47.5	Wasn't she right?
0:50.2	I hope so.
0:51.7	So we have got three good papers, actually.
0:54.5	I wouldn't say that the highest quality of evidence,

1:04.7	Before we start, a big thanks once again
1:06.8	to our sponsors, Abrak, for making this all possible.
1:10.8	Right, let's just crack on with paper number one.
1:16.2	Okay, so this paper is published for a change in resuscitation.
1:21.3	The title of the paper is Association between Timing of Intubation and outcome in critically ill patients, a secondary
1:29.7	analysis of the ICON audit. The lead author is Philippe Bauer. So before we start, I think we
