The EMS Lighthouse Project

National guidelines for the management of seizures recommend midazolam 10 mg IM as first line therapy. The big question is how often EMS follows this guideline or how well that guideline matches up to real world use. Dr. Jarvis makes a road trip to ESO headquarters to discuss this paper using the ESO research dataset with newly minted Texan Mike Verkest and special guest Dr Remle Crowe. We go deep on the very interesting methodology used in this paper as we get our nerd on!
