Here is a controversial paper with mortality findings very different to what has been published before.
The Community-Acquired Pneumonia: Evaluation of Corticosteroids (CAPE COD) Trial, was a double-blind, randomised, controlled, superiority trial, conducted in 31 French ICUs.
Intravenous hydrocortisone, 200mg, was given within 24 hours of onset of severity criteria (median time < 15 hours). The results were very different to the previous study conducted in 42 ICU centres.

Airway in Cardiac Arrest is still a bit of a mystery. We don't really know if we should intubate early. Contrary to prior studies showing no benefit of intubation over BVM or SGA, new evidence may be pointing in a different direction. We don't know the correct rate of breaths or volume of breaths or FiO2. Small animal studies and 'expert' opinion restrict our delivery of breaths to a maximum of 10 per minute and the volume of each breath to about 500 mL.
This has resulted in some centres now using paediatric BVMs for adult resuscitation. Do these work? Previous studies may have shown no inferiority, but here is a new study, that suggests that traditional BVMs may be better.

A patient presents feeling dizzy when standing. His ECG shows he is in Atrial Flutter with a variable block. The block is significant. In some places it is 8:1. His blood pressure is 130 mmHg systolic. He is normally on Diltiazem. What should we do?

How do you approach the patient in shock? Septic shock, Cardiogenic Shock, shock due to a massive pulmonary embolism?
There is no perfect drug, however Noradrenaline may be as perfect as it gets.

Is there such an entity as a Hypertensive Urgency? Probably not. Hypertensive Emergencies are a Clinical Diagnosis as they involve end-organ damage.
Apart from Aortic Dissection and preeclampsia, we shouldn't decrease systolic Blood pressure by more than 20-25% in the first hour. What STEMI, or ICH, or stroke?What is the best medication to use? We look at that in this episode, taken from a lecture I gave in 2023.

Electrical Storm can be difficult to manage. Repeated episodes of Ventricular tachycardia, with haemodynamic compromise, that do not respond to defibrillation and potentially to medication, are a significant challenge. We discuss a recent case of just this scenario and it was approached as well as an approach to the Electrical VT Storm Patient.

We look at the unknown variables of ventilation and oxygenation both during cardiac arrest and post ROSC. We mention the EXACT Trial and the BOX Trial.
