Rethinking Epinephrine Use in Traumatic Cardiac Arrest


Listen Later

Host Bram Duffee explores research on epinephrine’s role in traumatic cardiac arrest. The discussion features a trauma surgeon and researcher from a Level 1 trauma center who explains why epinephrine may not only lack benefit but could cause harm in trauma cases like car crashes or gunshot wounds. Drawing from a six-year study across seven trauma centers involving over 1,600 patients, the findings challenge current EMS protocols by highlighting differences in outcomes between blunt and penetrating trauma. Bram also shares resources on EMS research and innovative communication techniques for emergency patients, offering valuable tools for practitioners and instructors alike.
