Welcome to January's Papers of the Month, which marks 10 years of the podcast!
First up, we look at a large multicentre cohort study from the East of England examining the association between prehospital post-intubation hypotension and mortality in severe traumatic brain injury. Preventing secondary brain injury sits at the centre of what we're try to achieve in early TBI care, but this paper quantifies the impact of post-RSI hypotension in a dramatic way and the associated increase in 30-day mortality.
Our second paper moves into the world of stable supraventricular tachycardia, asking whether an elevated troponin level in this cohort predicts short-term cardiovascular events. Troponin testing in SVT is common but debated: is it useful, or is it a diagnostic red herring?
Finally, we look at BICARICU-2, a major multicentre RCT examining sodium bicarbonate for severe metabolic acidemia in patients with moderate–severe AKI. We explore what this means for bicarbonate use for this group of patient, both in terms of mortality rates and the need for renal replacement therapy.
Once again we'd love to hear any thoughts or feedback either on the website or via X @TheResusRoom!
