Description

Welcome back to November's papers podcast! This month we've got some great topics to discuss. We look at another paper on the topic of oxygen therapy, this time a hug article from JAMA on oxygen therapy in the context of acute stroke and the impact on disability. Next up we look at a fascinating case report of a extradural haematoma that was drained via an I.O. needle prior to surgical evacuation. Lastly we follow up on our previous podcast on PE; the controversy, which looked at the prevalence of PE in those patients presenting with undifferentiated syncope. This paper puts a great counter to the conclusions arrived at in that Prandoni paper. Enjoy!
