- In this podcast episode, Dennis and Jeff discuss anoxic brain injury, its causes, progression, and treatment. They emphasize the importance of preventing anoxic brain injury by following the March algorithm and maintaining blood flow, airway patency, and oxygenation. They also discuss the role of monitoring and airway management in identifying and treating anoxic brain injury. The podcast covers the decision-making process for airway management and the importance of maintaining adequate oxygenation and blood pressure. The hosts also highlight the need to prevent secondary problems, such as pain, agitation, and seizures, and discuss resuscitation goals for anoxic brain injury.

Takeaways
Preventing anoxic brain injury is crucial and can be achieved by following the March algorithm and maintaining blood flow, airway patency, and oxygenation.
Monitoring and airway management are essential in identifying and treating anoxic brain injury.
The decision-making process for airway management should consider the patient's condition, available resources, and the provider's proficiency.
Maintaining adequate oxygenation and blood pressure is crucial in preventing and treating anoxic brain injury.
Preventing secondary problems, such as pain, agitation, and seizures, is important in the management of anoxic brain injury.
Resuscitation goals for anoxic brain injury include maintaining a systolic blood pressure of 120-140 and a pulse oximetry saturation of at least 90%.
Collaboration with neurocritical care specialists can help optimize fluid management and prevent further brain injury.

Preventing Secondary Problems
So after my son had cardiac arrest, and they said a few weeks later he had brain injury, I asked for hbot and the hospital refused to help. They said what's hyperbaric oxygen?. We don't have that high tech stuff? Sharp memorial hospital. How do you help hospitals get on board with this.
