Monday’s Spoon Feed:

Cardiac standstill on transthoracic echocardiography is a strong predictor of failing to achieve return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). However, while it offers high diagnostic accuracy, emergency physicians should use it as one prognostic marker among others rather than a sole reason to terminate efforts.

Tuesday’s Spoon Feed:

Of patients with return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) after in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA), CT imaging revealed new findings 65.2% of the time while POCUS did so in 57.6% of IHCA patients.
