The EMS Lighthouse Project

Mikey V and Dr. Jarvis get together again, “live” from Planet Hollywood at Las Vegas for FAST22! We took the opportunity to sit down and discuss two papers on cardiac arrest. Should we stay and play or should we load and go? In other words, should we work our arrests to conclusion where we find them or rapidly transport them? In a paper from Prague, we discuss whether early transport with LUCAS direct to cath lab for ECMO and PCI improves survival.As a foretaste of a pod to come, we’ll discuss the apparent contrasting results between the Prague ECMO study and one from Minneapolis (The ARREST trial) in a future episode. If you like the show, please give us a 5-star rating wherever you get your podcasts. Did you know our podcast is on YouTube, too? Check us out and subscribe on the FlightBridgeED channel. Drop us questions/comments/suggestion for future pods at: Jeff.jarvis@flightbridgeed.com @DrJeffJarvisSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
