Summary

We were delighted to be invited to cover the joint Faculty of Prehospital Care and BASICS conference held at the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh.

This two-day prehospital extravaganza covered a broad range of topics and the content was delivered by some excellent speakers. As such, we were absolutely spoilt for choice when it came to content for the podcasts but we managed to catch up with:

Dr Abi Hoyle – a paediatric emergency medicine consultant with a background in military and retrieval services. She gave us some key tips when dealing with paediatric patients.
Ian Dunbar – a technical and medical rescue consultant with years of experience in the UK Fire and Rescue Service and ongoing involvement with British Touring Car Championship and the FIA. He did some myth busting around extrication from vehicles.
Professor Mike Tipton – a leading figure in extreme physiology who is the Associate Head of Research at the Extreme Environments Laboratory in Portsmouth, is trustee/director of Surf Life Saving GB, sits on the medical committee for the RNLI and was awarded an MBE for services to physiological research in extreme environments. Mike spoke on the topic of drowning.

Massive thanks to Dr Caroline Leech who put together this brilliant programme and extended the invitation to us. We hope you enjoy the podcast and extract some learning to inform your practice.

Enjoy!

Simon, Rob & James

0:00.0	Welcome to the recess room podcast.
0:03.9	Five, four, three, two, one, fire.
0:12.5	So hi and welcome back to the recess room podcast. I'm Rob Fenwick.
0:16.5	And I'm James Yates.
0:17.9	Indeed you are. And we are podcasting from the basics and faculty of pre-hospital care joint annual conference.
0:25.1	And we'd like to say a huge thank you to Caroline Leach for the invitation to do so.
0:29.2	Yeah, it's absolutely brilliant to be back here and back in the presidential suite.
0:33.9	That might be digging up a bit.
0:34.9	It's called the president's room, but it's pretty fancy.
0:37.0	Now, Rob, where's Simon? Simon? Ah, so we've left him at home to concentrate on growing
0:41.4	a moustache, James, and is a big deal for him, so that's why he's not with us. But he will be
0:47.0	doing all the editing, so if it's of poor quality, then let's blame him for that. So what we're going to be doing with this podcast is we are going to be talking
0:54.6	to some of the fantastic speakers that have been on day one and day two, and we're planning to
0:59.5	split that into two parts because there were just too many to cram into one podcast. Yeah,
1:04.5	brilliant. I think we'll get the speakers in, we'll get their highlights of the talk,
1:08.2	we'll try and get them to summarise things down from their half an hour into three minutes.
1:12.3	And then we'll try and just chat through some of the key points that they bring up, maybe some
1:16.6	clinical applications, and we'll try and give you some insights from our minds to what's gone on in their talk.
1:22.9	Absolutely, that sounds like a great idea. Let's crack on with the podcast.
1:28.2	Okay, so first up in the president's room is Abby Hoyle. Now, Abby is a pediatric emergency
1:34.3	medicine consultant with some experience in retrieval work as well as the military. So she's got
1:39.4	a really interesting job and she was talking to us about top tips for paediatrics.
