Effect of a strategy of a supraglottic airway device vs tracheal intubation during out-of-hospital cardiac arrest on functional outcome the AIRWAYS-2 randomized clinical trial (2018)
Journal Article

© 2018 American Medical Association. All rights reserved. IMPORTANCE The optimal approach to airway management during out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is unknown. OBJECTIVE To determine whether a supraglottic airway device (SGA) is superior to tracheal...

Emergency medical service provider decision-making in out of hospital cardiac arrest: An exploratory study (2017)
Journal Article

© 2017 The Author(s). Background: There are approximately 60,000 out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCA) in the United Kingdom (UK) each year. Within the UK there are well-established clinical practice guidelines that define when resuscitation should...

Pre-hospital lactate testing in the recognition and management of sepsis and septic shock: A proof (2017)
Journal Article

Sepsis is a common condition, with a high mortality rate. Patients with this condition are routinely encountered by ambulance clinicians, but recognition of septic shock can be challenging. The pre-hospital phase of sepsis care provides the earliest... Read More about Pre-hospital lactate testing in the recognition and management of sepsis and septic shock: A proof.

Design and implementation of the AIRWAYS-2 trial: A multi-centre cluster randomised controlled trial of the clinical and cost effectiveness of the i-gel supraglottic airway device versus tracheal intubation in the initial airway management of out of hospital cardiac arrest (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 Health outcomes after out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) are extremely poor, with only 7–9% of patients in the United Kingdom (UK) surviving to hospital discharge. Currently emergency medical services (EMS) use either tracheal intubation or...

The impact of working shifts: Exploring the views of UK paramedics (2016)
Journal Article

There is limited research within the UK investigating the effects of shift work on paramedics. Paramedics have relatively high rates of sickness levels and there are
links between shift work and health. This study explores UK paramedics' perception... Read More about The impact of working shifts: Exploring the views of UK paramedics.
