This month's journal club features many trails - each with their own unique questions and qualities.  We look at herbs for sepsis, steroids in pneumonia, metformin for long-Covid and a heap of other ideas in the world of ED science in 2023.

This month on the Journal Club we tackle a lot of PAeds - croup, HFNC, sepsis and buckle injury.  There is some old stuff about CT Head rules and some fascinating oddball papers.

This month we try to answer some of the big questions in ED practice... we do not necessarily succeed... How much electricity should we use in refractory VF? Should we suck clots out of legs? Should you put Tegaderm on eyeballs? Is the HEART score valid? Are any clinical decision tools really what we think? What happens if you discharge patients with low troponin rise? Should you evert the edges o...

This is the conclusion to the discussion with Dr Anand Senthi about EBM and how we can make it better.

EBM is broken.  It needs an update to become a useful tool to further medical science. Dr Anand Senthi joins Justin and I for a deep dive into the problems with EBM and the way forward.

Justin and I discuss the latest literature on the Covid Crisis and how we can try and apply some loose science to hard medicine.  

This is a rapid review of a dozen papers out of the SARS COV2 epidemic.... Justin and I discuss the evidence and the practicality of applying it in this rapidly evolving epidemic. Hold onto your hats, it is hot off the press.

This special episode is all about safety, planning and airway strategy in the current epidemic. Dr Tim Leeuwenburg is an author of the Safe Airways Society paper that hit the MJA this week
