馃└ Among adults with acute nontraumatic coma undergoing prehospital rapid sequence induction, point-of-care #GFAP testing showed high diagnostic accuracy for intracranial hemorrhage and may help guide triage to specialist care.

ALT A ROC curve graph with 'False-positive rate' on the x-axis and 'True-positive rate' on the y-axis, both ranging from 0 to 1. The curve shows high performance with an AUC of 0.94, accompanied by a shaded confidence interval.

New open-access paper from @EAAARAID
What is the value of HEMS?
Not just the intervention. Not just the aircraft. Not just speed. This study asks crews what HEMS actually adds at the scene.

ECPR has the strongest evidence base for refractory OHCA, but only in selected patients and mature systems.
The signal is not just about ECMO - it is about rapid recognition, rapid cannulation, catheter lab access and expert post-cannulation care.
We are based in Cambridge @EastAngliAirAmb HMED88 / Anglia2. However, sometimes the closest Major Trauma Centre is in London. Popped into @HEMSRLH today - always a pleasure.

In cardiac arrest, adrenaline reliably improves ROSC - but has not consistently translated into better long-term neurological survival.
Our comment asks whether the problem is not adrenaline itself, but how and where we deliver it..

This is not a call for routine practice change today.
It is a call for prospective evaluation of haemodynamically guided intra-aortic adrenaline as part of modern endovascular resuscitation pathways.
A plausible, testable adjunct between standard ALS and ECPR.
