Dr. Sam Tisherman from the Shock Trauma Center joins us on Rounds to discuss his ongoing, cutting-edge research in EPR-CAT. Colloquially known as "suspended animation", EPR-CAT may provide trauma & acute care practitioners with the desperately needed time that's required to repair lethal exsanguinating injuries through the induction of profound hypothermia after traumatic arrest. During Rounds, we discuss everything from indications for EPR-CAT to the role of selective aortic arch perfusion, integration of resuscitative endovascular techniques, and common ethical considerations that arise when performing resuscitation research.
