SCCM Pod-430 Optimal Bundle of Management for Cardiac Arrest

Sudden cardiac arrest remains a leading cause of premature death worldwide. The reported likelihood of survival with favorable neurologic function is less than 10% in most communities, despite widespread CPR training and increased advanced care EMS systems. Host Margaret M. Parker, MD, MCCM, is joined by Paul E. Pepe, MD, MPH, MACP, FAEMS, MCCM, to review a practical, attainable roadmap for enhancing the likelihood of neurologically intact survival following sudden cardiac arrest  (Pepe P, et al. Crit Care Explor. 2020;2:e0214). Dr. Pepe is professor of management policy and community health at the University of Texas Health Science Center in Houston, Texas, USA, and global coordinator of the Metropolitan EMS Medical Directors Alliance and medical director of the Dallas County emergency medical services in Dallas, Texas, USA. This podcast is sponsored by ZOLL.
