Summary
Welcome back after our summer hiatus to September's Papers Podcast!
Firstly we take a look at two different strategies for managing agitation in the Emergency Department, to achieve rapid control. Is haloperidol and midazolam, or ketamine alone, a better strategy?
Then we take a look at the results from RECOVERY-RS. We covered the design of the trial at it's conception last year and this trial essentially looks to answer whether a strategy of high flow nasal oxygenation, CPAP or conventional oxygenation is best for our patients with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 when they present with hypoxia.
Lastly we turn to Rob and take a look at his recent publication on the use of cervical collars when dealing with a patient able to self extricate from a motor vehicle collision; how will the application of a collar or commands help with excessive movement?
Once again we'd love to hear any thoughts or feedback either on the website or via twitter @TheResusRoom.
Enjoy!
Simon & Rob

| 0:39.2 | after the summer. And we've got something on rapid agitation control. We've got a paper on |
| 0:45.0 | respiratory strategies in COVID-19. And we've got a little paper on self-extrication following |

| 1:00.4 | We normally record it a few days in advance, |
| 1:02.2 | but we've pushed it so far back. |
| 1:05.2 | But let's hope we don't make too many glitches |
| 1:06.8 | because I don't think we're going to have any time to edit them out. |
| 1:09.1 | But yeah, no, this should be a great one. |
