Episode 14 - ReSS Year in Review: Part 1 of 2

Resuscitation Science Top Studies of 2019: Part 1 of 2

Drs. Robert Neumar and Cindy Hsu (both at University of Michigan) are guest presenters in this special TTM Academy Podcast, hosted by Dr. Felipe Teran. They recap the plenary “Year in Review” presentation by Dr. Neumar at the American Heart Association Resuscitation Science Symposium (ReSS) in Philadelphia. If you missed ReSS, this is your chance to hear summaries of the top studies that impacted cardiac arrest and post-arrest care in the past 12 months. Note that this is a two-part podcast: Episode 15 will present the second alf of this discussion in two weeks.
