Trauma Resuscitation Theory: Team Cognition in Acute Care Action Teams

Dr. Colin Evans, newly minted staff emergency physician here in London, joins us to discuss prehospital care from the lens of one of his five careers, as a Paramedic with Middlesex London Paramedic Service. He is also one of the founding members of the PreHospital and Retrieval Medicine (PHARMers) group, with the goal to provide education to optimize prehospital care. Their first meeting was based on optimizing trauma resuscitation. In his latest career, as an academic emergency medicine physician, he has a strong research interest in optimizing and measuring team cognition in acute care action teams. In today’s podcast, he lends his knowledge and multiple career experience, to takes us through optimizing prehospital trauma care though team cognition and developing mental models.   Disclaimer: Dr. Evans takes us through how he would optimize prehospital care in trauma and gives some examples throughout. His practice now includes in-hospital management which may differ from prehospital management. The Please follow the BLS PCS and ALS PCS care direction. Example: Dr. Evans discusses judicious fluid administration after the patient becomes normotensive. As a reminder, the OBHG Companion Document highlights that, “Once a bolus has been initiated, a minimum volume of 100 ml in pediatrics and 250 ml in adults may be administered prior to discontinuing the fluid bolus should the patient become normotensive.”

A Conversation on BH Audits with Dr. Doran and Dwayne Cottel

It’s no secret that receiving an audit from SWORBHP can spark a lot of anxiety, but should it? Dr. Sean Doran (Local Medical Director) and Dwayne Cottel (Prehospital Care Specialist) discuss this in our latest podcast. A variety of topics are discussed, including: * Why self-reporting is the best option and the importance of it * The auditing process and how things work behind the scenes * Feedback requests, why we reach out and the value in a prompt response These questions and answers cover most of what you, as a Paramedic, should know about auditing and its process. We hope you enjoy and learn a lot from this great conversation!
