Description
Welcome back to December’s paper of the month podcast!

Next, we often focus on the specific of medical management in cardiac arrest, but what impact does witnessing a cardiac arrest have on bystanders and could this affect the way we interact and behave on scene? Lastly we consider those patients that require a prehospital anaesthetic following return of spontaneous circulation from a medical cardiac arrest. Does the choice of induction agent between midazolam and ketamine affect the likelihood of hypotension and other complications? Once again we’d love to hear any thoughts or feedback either on the website or via twitter @TheResusRoom. Simon & Rob
