All Things Paramedic Podcast

Provides modifications to standard ALS algorithms for cardiac arrest caused by specific underlying etiologies (e.g., hyper/hypokalaemia, anaphylaxis, severe accidental hypothermia, drowning, toxic exposure, pulmonary embolism), unique environments (e.g., operating theatres, cardiac catheterisation labs, sports facilities), and distinct patient groups (e.g., pregnancy and aortocaval decompression, obesity, cardiac surgery). It also highlights time-critical interventions like the HOTT protocol and bilateral thoracostomies for traumatic cardiac arrest

Focuses on advanced resuscitation strategies for infants, children, and adolescents experiencing respiratory failure, shock, or cardiac arrest. Key updates emphasize high-quality CPR, weight-based drug administration, maintaining mean arterial and systolic blood pressures above the 10th percentile for age and sex post-ROSC, active prevention of fever (maintaining central core temperature ≤ 37.5 °C), and structured multimodal neuroprognostication assessed across multiple post-arrest time points.

Covers the recognition and management of critically ill infants (< 1 year), children (1–12 years), and adolescents (13–18 years). It emphasizes early identification of respiratory or circulatory deterioration using observational tools like the BBB-tool (Behaviour, Breathing, Body colour), 5 initial rescue breaths and a 15:2 compression-to-ventilation ratio for trained PBLS rescuers, and PALS interventions including weight-adjusted drug dosing, manual defibrillation at 4 J/kg, and systematic evaluation of the 4Hs and 4Ts.

In this podcast, we discuss the 2025 NALS guidelines.

Focuses on the physiological transition and resuscitation of infants at birth in hospital and out-of-hospital settings. Key guidelines include delayed cord clamping (≥ 60 seconds), active thermal maintenance (36.5–37.5 °C), two-person jaw thrust airway support, 5 initial inflation breaths, gestational age-based oxygen titration (21% for ≥ 32 weeks vs. ≥ 30% for < 32 weeks), a 3:1 compression-to-ventilation ratio, and emergency umbilical venous catheter (UVC) access.
