This Critical Care Time bonus is our ode to RSI... that is the RSI Trial! In this episode, we'll unpack all the important elements of the recently released RSI Trial by the Pragmatic Critical Care Research Group exploring whether there is a signal favoring etomidate vs ketamine for tracheal intubation of critically ill adults. Does one drug reign supreme? Is this practice changing, practice affirming or perhaps the devil's in the details? Listen, learn and let us know YOUR thoughts!

For those who work in an ICU - or with any patients for that matter -the concepts of burnout and moral injury are no stranger.

Join Nick and Cyrus, as they sit down with an incredible guest, Dr. Venktesh Ramnath, with the hopes of doing just that. On this episode we step away from the pressors and central lines and focus on the contributors to burn out and moral injury in the medical field while developing some strategies to combat them.

This week on Critical Care Time, Nick & Cyrus discuss the recent article in the Journal of Critical Care titled “Impact of initial jugular vein insertion site selection for central venous catheter placement on hemodialysis catheter complications.” Is this bunk or is this practice changing? Did they select the right population for this study or is the question they asked and answered... maybe not such a great question? We'll cover all this and more during this week's episode!

On this mini-sode, Cyrus & Nick are once again joined by Dr. Prager as they follow up on last week's episode with some cases & practical pearls to really hammer home some of the points previously discussed.

September 08, 2025 57. Venous Congestion, Volume Tolerance and Bedside Assessments
What is the microcirculation? How are terms like volume-status and fluid-responsiveness misleading? Join us as we sit down with Dr. Ross Prager to unpack and de-mystify the concepts of congestion and volume tolerance along with our survey of the tools of the trade as it relates to these terms. On this Critical Care Time episode we really get into the weeds on this stuff and even get theoretical at some points so it's NOT for the faint of heart! However, if you listen to us for the deep dives into physiology and if you want to level-up your ICU patient care, this is the episode for you! Listen, leave us some feedback and drop us a review!
