In this special edition of the St Emlyn’s podcast, Iain Beardsell and Simon Carley review the top medical papers of 2024, originating from Simon’s talk at The Big Sick conference in Zermatt. The discussion includes a comparison of non-invasive versus arterial pressure monitoring, the association of intra-arrest arterial blood pressure with ROSC, the efficacy of serratus anterior plane blocks for rib fracture management, and the evaluation of a micro axial flow pump in cardiogenic shock.

They also delve into double sequential external defibrillation in refractory out-of-hospital cardiac arrest and provide a rapid-fire review of additional critical papers discussed at the conference. Notable mentions include the HEMOTION trial, PRE OXI trial, BLING III, and PARAMEDIC-3, among others.

A must-listen for those passionate about evidence-based medicine in emergency and pre-hospital care.
