@CritCareReviews Great to see the outcome of this valuable out of hospital RCT able to be shared with clinicians around the world. You do not always need a clear outcome for a trial to be meaningful. Well done to the researchers and @NSWAmbulance paramedics.

Perfect timing for this post @BillLord2 as we are having this discussion in my organsiation. We are moving away from halving doses at 65. We are encouraging to consider individual patient needs, concept of frailty. Currently for Fentanyl we advise dose reduction. Others changing.

I see where you are going. But just like ED where there are clinical leaders to seek guidance from, and paramedic in Aus can consult with a specialist (ICP/ECP) when needed.
An issue in Australian paramedicine is the rapid turnover of the workforce leading to jnr clinicians teaching even more jnr clinicians w/o a circuit breaker to prevent bad practices becoming inculturated It would be like an ED where interns only interacted w brand new registrars

Hello #Paramedicine colleagues. I am trying to find research that reports on optimal number of rapid response units to transport ambulances. I seem to recall seeing at least one paper on this in recent years but am now struggling to locate. Assistance appreciated.

@marcoarment @atpfm @thetalkshow listen to all your shows! But I cringe each time you talk about Apple Watch ECG, or like in recent episode of @thetalkshow, pulse oximetry. Please get a medical person in to talk, or give someone like me a call to ensure your context is right!
