Listen Later

In this episode, Eric is joined by Kevin Collopy at Elevate 2022 to discuss his team's recent research on TBI and 3% hypertonic saline. The conversation quickly progressed to overall resuscitation in TBI, with a focus on decision-making in airway management, ICP management, herniation, and the secondary injuries that impact TBI patients. This is a must-listen, with many great discussion points.
