Synopsis
The Big Sick conference in february 2018 was a hugely rewarding, small-format conference that brought resuscitation nerds together in the perfect setting of Zermatt, Switzerland. Top speakers and top talks, but the conference was a total blast not least because the group of delegates was very sociable and interested in learning from each outside the sessions as much as during them.
Other commitments have postponed editing, but the talks are now getting ready to go online and we hope you’ll find the content was worth the wait.
We will release talks intermittently these next few months awaiting the next installment in february 2019.
Here first is a talk by prof. Samuel Tisherman from Baltimore’s shock trauma center on deep hypothermia as a means to buying time in refractory traumatic cardiac arrest. He describes the history of how this therapy was developed from early animal models up until the current human EPR-CAT trial.
