A practice-based discussion (NOT a journal club, don't worry!) of 10 papers that changed my EMS practice in 2022. These are papers, for good or bad, that all paramedics, system directors, and medical directors should know about. We’ll cover topics including the use of TXA for traumatic brain injuries and nose bleeds, characteristics of prehospital ketamine use, risk factors for peri-intubation cardiac arrest, the use of video laryngoscopy in cardiac arrest, and more.
Learning Objectives:
for the papers discussed, describe hypothesis being tested
for the papers discussed, describe the methods being used
for the papers discussed, describe the results being presented and their applicability to EMS practice
