This study focused on gender differences in CPR performance and trialed an intervention to impact the leadership behaviors of female medical students. They studied the effect of gender composition of resuscitation teams with all different combinations (female-female; female-male; male-male; male-female). 2017; 177(2): 206- 213.

This should include early identification of life-threatening injuries, targeted fluid resuscitation using blood products, pain management, then eventual safeguarding and psychological support. Establish IV access for potential fluid resuscitation. You feel the patient needs fluid resuscitation. Administer O2 if necessary.

They’re getting CPR. Resuscitation is a team sport. Role stickers or role aprons with names on them are simple measures to highlight resuscitation roles. A study in Denmark in 2021 explored barriers to effective resuscitation in over 900 in-hospital resuscitations across six hospitals in Denmark. Ready your team.

Prolonged CPR should be considered as outcomes are generally good, even if asystole is the presenting rhythm. Judicious fluid resuscitation is critical; patients may become volume-deplete due to fluid loss/oedema secondary to burns. Volume resuscitation in patients with high-voltage electrical injuries.

Optimally, bystander CPR, including the administration of rescue breaths, should be initiated prior to arrival of emergency medical services. 3 Once the patient arrives in your emergency department, a rapid review of the patient’s status and results of resuscitative efforts should be performed. 4 Another study cited only 2.3

Clinical Question : In patients who suffer an OHCA without ST-segment elevation on the post-resuscitation ECG, will early coronary angiogram (CAG) vs. delayed CAG improve outcomes? However, there are no clear guidelines for management in post-cardiac arrest patients without ST-segment elevations on ECG. Published online June 08, 2022.
