The EMS Lighthouse Project

Man, did we have fun recording this one? I found myself in a hotel room in Ashland, Oregon, with Drs. Ed Racht, Maia Dorsett, and Ritu Sahni talking about Sepsis. We decided this would make for a great crossover episode with The EMS Show, minus our buddy Mikey V. Anytime I get together with this group of friends, I always have fun. We discuss a new sepsis trial, the OG sepsis paper, Dr. River's Early Goal Direct Therapy, and the cautionary tale of performance measures gone awry. We also hit on using EtCO2 as a surrogate for lactate in sepsis and collectively decided Dr. Dorsett is a rockstar.
