MD's get the glory, but nurses are such heavy lifters and underappreciated. Thank you to all involved in keeping us healthy and alive, but an extra thanks to the unsung heroes from the beginning, middle, and to the end!!
Super helpful! Really great video for someone who has minimal code experience. Definitely more confident after watching this video Really enjoy these lecture/chalk talk type of videos. Super informational and helps me be a better clinician!
As someone with an interest in internal medicine but also a bit nervous about facing emergencies, your videos have been incredibly helpful in calming my nerves. I appreciate your clear and concise explanations of your thought process, which are really getting me excited for clinical year. My classmates and I are huge fans of your videos. Your channel definitely deserves more view.
Thanks Conan you’ve made it interesting and simple to understand. My first experience of leading the code was really scarily too but after the first baptising of fire you get use to it.
I appreciate this video! However, you should not stop CPR during the 2minutes to check a pulse/rhythm or to intubate. Those are to be done between rounds of CPR. And you should not stop compressions for >10seconds. High quality CPR is what is essential to ACLS.
12:37 Why do you have to still pause in theory? I thought that the purpose of the ratio was to maximize oxygenation in the case of a single rescuer scenario but in the inpatient setting you are not limited by this?
Could be wrong, but I believe it's because when you are trying to get air into the pt it's counterproductive to be pushing down on the chest at the same time. It's also hard to check chest rise and fall to verify rescue breath quality.
Hey man...thanks for this. Do you guys also intubate by 3-4th round or is that kind of institution dependent?...also if possible, a video on how to approach rapids.TY!
@Conan Liu, M.D. Wow I didn't know that was a thing! At our institution, Anesthesia doesn't leave the OR unless they have to see a preop pt. If there's a code on nights, it's either the resident or the attending who has to run the code and/or intubate. Thanks again!
Intubating the patient should not be a priority, unless it becomes a priority. Meaning, you can bag a patient for several minutes and it works just fine. Intubating the patient will not change anything, unless the RT cannot ventilate for whatever reason.

Two beefs: 1. Only 2 doses of amio are indicated. Not indefinitely alternating with epi. 2. Vasopressin was nixed from the algorithm a while ago. Only considered in the presence of an Acei.

Saw my first code yesterday. This has really has given me the confidence to ask my attending if I can run the next one! Thank you
Wow you will make me even more confident..... one day I will sure be able to run one with this reminder refresher which you gave.....thanks!
Usually there is a ICU or ED charge nurse at the code and a pharmacist is usually at the code cart. They are great resources

Thanks for your refresher...I will prepare for one soon!
Good luck!! You got this!
Thank you SO much this is so helpful!!!! As a med student this is so clearly explained and I appreciate it!
This was just what I was looking for, thank you for making this!

Do you have any video on checklist or prepping for intubation?
That might be more of an anesthesia thing!

I'm not sure if it's a specific time frame! Really just once anesthesia arrives and feels like it's an appropriate time to get a stable airway :)

Is the vasopressin, magS04 push or IVPBag?
Vasopressin is a push, not sure about the piggyback but I assume it's also a push since it's such an emergent situation!

Why do you call adrenaline for epinephrine is US!?
No idea!! 😂
Greek: Epi (above) + nephros (kidneys) = Adrenals → adrenaline

1. Only 2 doses of amio are indicated. Not indefinitely alternating with epi.
2. Vasopressin was nixed from the algorithm a while ago. Only considered in the presence of an Acei.
You sound exactly the same - my heart stopped... lol
Haha how so? :P
Too long, too much waffling on
Also, I do not agree with the comment that you cannot make things worse
