Ed - This blog by Laura Howard is based on her excellent work on the impact of events on emergency care clinicians. We hope that you read this alongside the other blogs and podcasts1 the team has put together on improving the working lives of clinicians.
A few weeks ago we reviewed a paper on the management of traumatic cardiac arrest. That paper specifically looked at the role of closed chest compressions in traumatic cardiac arrest (TCA).
Another of our videos and podcasts from the #stemlynsLIVE conference. This month it's Alan Grayson on the role of ATLS in trauma management.
This blog is designed to support my talk at SMACCUltimate1. The conference is held in Sydney, Australia and sadly (Ed - very sadly) it's likely to be the very last of the SMACC conferences.
Ed - At the SMACC conference our good friend and simulation guru Jesse Spurr 1 talked about virtual reality as a future technique for education and for therapy. It's an area that we've not really seen in practice (yet) and so it was really interesting to see this paper published so soon after the conference.
We finish off the series with a podcast by Iain and Liz that brings together the themes of the first two blogs. You can review the previous blogs below.
