#ICSSOA2017 Caroline leach talking trauma you can use clothing labels on children to make weight estimates. Devil juice (abnormal saline) can you withhold prehospital and wait for the red stuff.

#ICSSOA2017 SBT with peep and pressure support is the most effective way to do an SBT and extubate from that support rather than CPAP or Tpiece

#ICSSOA2017 Gavin Perkins.

SBT with PS and peep.

If SBT with Tpeice or cpap, rest for 30min before extubation

#ICSSOA2017 Gavin Perkins
High risk pts who pass SBT, extubate to NIV

Lower risk pts consider extubation to HFNO2

#ICSSOA2017 advanced in ventilation

Spontaneous breathing may be injurious in ARDS. Asynchrony may induce lung and muscle injury. Consider optimising asynchrony. ? Oesophageal pressure monitoring to measure asynchrony.

#ICSSOA2017 advances in respiratory failure management.
The future.Assess recruitability, monitoring of asynchrony.

#ICSSOA2017 what's a cuff leak? Auidable? Based on 25% cuff leak measured? No common definition yet.
January 27, 2025 at 3:07 AM
#ICSSOA2017 gavin Perkins. We don't know what the minimum support to extubate from. But studies are beginning to challenge our assumptions about what pressures we can extubate from.

#ICSSOA2017 important consideration in multiple stabbing incidents. Pts may be stabbed with a weapon used against multiple victims with potential for blood born virus transmission.

#ICSSOA2017 glenfield tower victims, need for multiple RSI in 30min timeframe due to fire related airway injury.

#ICSSOA2017 in major events, every patients belongings, clothing and even shrapnel is evidence and needs to be retained.

#ICSSOA2017 major incident. Watsapp essential communication tool for calling in offduty staff. Switchboard calls to mobile phones will register caller withheld if staff don't answer their phones.

#ICSSOA2017 @tanjidayo what plans do the panel have in place for mass paediatric casualties, what if the Manchester arena incident happened with younger children or toddlers
January 27, 2025 at 3:01 AM
#ICSSOA2017 what are the implications for the trauma unit in mass casualty events
January 27, 2025 at 3:01 AM
#ICSSOA2017 mass casualty events may require blood born virus screening even if a victim went home from the scene and presented to other services in the coming days. Hundreds required screening and follow up after Manchester arena incident
January 27, 2025 at 3:01 AM
#ICSSOA2017 documentation is key when discharging pts for mass casualty events. Pts readmitted/died or have a transfer adverse events can lead to complaints +\- litigation later

#ICSSOA2017 ever wonder why secretions build up in the back of patients mouths when their intubated and awake? Stick a finger between your teeth and try and swollen.

#ICSSOA2017 @aroradrn trachys in ITU session. Should all former trachy pts be assessed for ongoing airway problems as part of ITU follow up?

#ICSSOA2017 mechanical circulatory support Pasacl Vrancx. Routine AIBP is dead. VA ecmo complete cardiac output support but increases after load. Use vasodilator/inodilators, IABP, impella, with VA ecmo to off load the LV.
January 27, 2025 at 3:01 AM
#ICSSOA2017 mechanical circulatory support Pasacl Vrancx. Harlequin syndrome with VA ecmo. Oxygenated blood south, deoxygenated north. May require switching catheter input/output.
January 27, 2025 at 3:01 AM
#ICSSOA2017 mechanical circulatory support Pasacl Vrancx. R side off loading using impeller in the IJ and feeding into the PA.

#ICSSOA2017 mechanical circulatory support Asworth on ECPR in Manchester. Ecmo trolley, lucus. Sim training for ED. Use sim to streamline catheterisation, 18min from puncture to ecmo. Not a commissioned service at present. 25% neuro intact survival at discharge 3/12.
