Summary
Welcome back after the summer break!
Three more papers for you to feast your ears on this month and as always make sure you go and check them out yourselves after you've had a listen!
First up, following on really nicely from the DOSE-VF paper on dual sequential defibrillation we take a look at the paper that looks at the association between shock interval and VF termination. We might be biased but this shines a light on an area that could make a huge difference to the outcomes for patients with refractory VF!
Next; when you're seeing a patient with an upper GI bleed, which scoring/prognostication tool do you use and is it the best? We cover a paper that looks at exactly this question.
Finally we look at whether TXA predisposes patients to a higher risk of venous thromboembolism and whether it might affect our practice patterns.
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. |
| 0:12.1 | So hi, and welcome back to the recess room podcast. |
| 0:15.3 | I'm Simon Lang. |
| 0:16.8 | And I'm Rob Fenwick. |
| 0:18.0 | And we're back after our fantastic summer holiday break, |
| 0:21.8 | absolutely bronzed and glowing to bring you this month's podcast. |
| 0:27.8 | Yes, apologies. |
| 0:28.8 | If anyone saw Simon Lang jumping in the sea down in the southwest, |
| 0:32.7 | it must have been a horrendous experience brawling. |
| 0:34.9 | But yes, I absolutely hope you've all managed to have a little |
| 0:38.4 | break and you know, you might be needing that as we head for another emergency care, autumn and |
| 0:42.9 | winter goodness, but hopefully it'll all be playing sailing. But as Simon has said, we are |
| 0:47.5 | pretty refreshed and we have got a very nice schedule, a planned podcast and events coming up, |
| 0:53.5 | so we can't wait to bring you all of those. |
| 0:56.3 | But let's have a look at our classic roundup and discussion of the findings of three papers for this month. |
| 1:03.2 | So, of course, we absolutely couldn't go a month without looking at double sequential defibrillation, |
| 1:09.2 | because apparently we're now the double sequential defibrillation because apparently we're now the double |
| 1:11.0 | sequential defibrillation room so we've got another paper on dSD but then we're also going to be |
| 1:16.2 | looking at some more general topics so risk assessment for upper GI bleed and tranexamic acid and |
| 1:22.2 | the risk of thrombo embolism so all in all this is very much a very recessy month and that's just how we like it. |
| 1:30.2 | Yeah, absolutely. And before we crack into the podcast, a huge thanks to Zol Medical Corporation |
