In this co-hosted podcast, Adam Thomas and Josh discuss post-cardiac arrest resuscitation, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing brain resuscitation. They cover initial stabilization, including intubation, oxygen saturation targets, and circulation support. The discussion moves to advanced interventions such as coronary disease management and targeted temperature management (TTM), including indications, target temperatures, and shivering management. They also touch on common causes of arrest, the utility of CAT scans, EEG monitoring, post-cardiac arrest SIRS, mechanical complications from CPR, aspiration pneumonia, early neuroprognostication, and potential pitfalls in managing these patients, providing a comprehensive guide for managing post-cardiac arrest patients.
