HEMS Debrief - Cardiac Arrest Focus. #14, Dr Caroline Leech

G'day and welcome back to the Sydney HEMS debrief, with our focus still firmly on cardiac arrest.  In this episode 14, Nat is joined by Dr Helen Oliver in conversation with Dr Caroline Leech from the UK. Caroline is an emergency and pre-hospital physician who's academic interest focuses on maternal cardiac arrest. Specifically, Caroline's work concerns resuscitative hysterotomy; the when, the how, and the what to do after performing this HALO procedure.  Additionally, Nat, Helen and Caroline discuss the physiology of maternal cardiac arrest and how we can best optimise our holistic resuscitation care as well as some of the ethical considerations surrounding this very challenging and confronting circumstance.  We hope you enjoy this challenging episode, and of course share widely with your network.  Chat soon.   We are delighted to be sponsored by Corpuls - delivering high-tech and innovative equipment for emergency and intensive care medicine for over 35 years.
