Send us a Text Message (please include your email so we can respond!)
Episode 30! This episode is a little different. We recap the SCCM conference first. THEN we go into PROPHY-VAP or "Ceftriaxone to prevent early ventilator-associated pneumonia in patients with acute brain injury" published January 2024 by Professor Dahyot-Fizelier in Lancet Respiratory Medicine. Then we dive into our long neglected mailbag to review listener questions about MINT, intubation timing, ACORN, and all the steroids in ARDS talk
