In this podcast Professor Lyon discusses Traumatic Cardiac Arrest; he looks at the rationale of the different management needed to medical cardiac arrest and talks through the practical application of the HOT algorithm, which he developed with colleagues to provide an effective tool for the management of Traumatic Cardiac Arrest. Key points from this podcast:Do not assume the patient is in Traumatic Cardiac arrest (TCA)! When you hear that this is a TCA call, think this is highly likely to be a critically ill person that is going to need my intervention and go into that case positively thinking that you are going to create a survivor.Know the HOTT algorithm, know it well, know it inside out, practice it and stick to addressing the HOTT reversible causes quickly, simultaneously, as rapidly and effectively as you can.Consider the possibility that the cardiac arrest is of a medical origin with 10% of all TCA cases having a medical cause and don’t forget to check that they are not in VF and might just need a shock to achieve Return Of Spontaneous CirculationResources related to this podcast:Traumatic Cardiac Arrest AlgorithmElsevier – Development of a simple algorithm to guide the effective management of traumatic cardiac arrestAbout RichardProfessor Lyon is a Consultant in Emergency Medicine at The Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh, HEMS Consultant and Director of Research for Kent, Surrey & Sussex Air Ambulance and an Honorary Senior Clinical Lecturer at the University of Edinburgh.Prof Lyon has an established research portfolio in pre-hospital resuscitation, trauma care and emergency medicine with an extensive publication record.He has won numerous international awards including the top research award from the European Resuscitation Council.
