Cardiac arrest care hinges on high‑quality CPR, but pulse checks remain a stubborn source of interruptions — often longer than the recommended 10 seconds and repeated every two minutes. What if we could detect ROSC without ever pausing compressions? This diagnostic accuracy study evaluates whether femoral arterial Doppler waveforms obtained during active CPR can predict arterial line pulsatility at the next pulse check. Join Dr. Qin as she reviews how well Doppler‑detected pulsatility and anterograde flow signal true cardiac activity — and whether ultrasound could offer a future where pulse checks no longer slow us down.

No Pause, No Problem? Using Doppler Ultrasound to Detect ROSC Without Pausing Compressions for Pulse Check

Diabetic ketoacidosis is a familiar ED diagnosis, but the best fluid strategy is still up for debate. Many of us default to the traditional one‑bag system, even though it can be slow to adjust and prone to glucose swings. This new meta‑analysis compares one‑bag versus two‑bag DKA management across adults and children, examining hypoglycemia rates, time to resolution, and operational impact. Join Dr. Knudsen-Robbins as she breaks down what the evidence shows — and whether the two‑bag fluid system truly offers a clinical edge for treatment.

Two‑Bag Triumph? What the Evidence Really Shows in Diabetic Ketoacidosis Care

In this episode, Dr. Hill sits down with Dr. Otten to discuss snake envenomations, specifically crotalid envenomations.  The discussion focuses on initial triage, grading the severity of a bite, and the use of antivenin on the background of a simulation case done recently in our department.
