New Clinical Research on Heads-up CPR in Cardiac Arrest

In this episode of the Disaster Podcast, we talk about advances in heads-up CPR. Dr. Joe Holley joins us for a clinical episode this week and we engage in a discussion about the latest in research around cardiac arrest management.

The use of heads-up CPR with an impedance threshold device (ITD) and high-quality manual and mechanical compressions leads to better patient outcomes with neurologically intact survival in both shockable and unshockable heart rhythms.

More information about the process can be found at ElevatedCPR.com.

This episode included meterologist and ski patrol first responder Kyle Nelson and is hosted by Jamie Davis and Sam Bradley.
