You’d be forgiven for thinking it was never going to happen… but it has… the first RAGE Session is finally here!
RAGE Session One is 71 min 7 sec long and includes:
- Introduction, including the RAGE team ‘meet and greet’ (starts 00:00 min)
- ‘What’s bubbling up?’ (starts 05:40 min) — shout outs and interesting discoveries from the world of FOAM and elsewhere featuring CO2 retention in COPD, the LINC trial, intraosseous blood transfusion, Rory Spiegel’s EM Nerd, the ‘quick look’ CT in ‘semi-stable’ trauma patients and fallen cycling legend Martyn Ashton
- the RAGE team discussing ‘The post-TTM era: homeopathic hypothermia or aggressive normothermia?’ (starts 25:20 min)
- the RAGE team’s discussion on ‘Septic and hypotensive: what next?’ (starts 39:06 min)
- ‘A blast from the past’ on critical care deity Peter Safar, presented by Haney Mallemat (starts 63.57 min)
- ‘Wise Words’ featuring Descartes and Diderot, presented by Michelle Johnston (starts 67.58 min)
It’s early days and we expect to incrementally improve the format, presentation and audio quality with each episode. To make this happen, we need your feedback — leave comments on this post or contact us here (especially if you want to appear on the show, correct us or respond to an episode in audio format).
The RAGE podcast has been submitted to iTunes , but is not yet available there and is available here. The RAGE podcast audio feed is available here.
