Episode 3: Hyperoxia

https://phemcast.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/episode-3-hyperoxia.mp3

Hello and welcome to our next episode – we hope you enjoy it. This episode concentrates on hyperoxia – the delivery of lots (often too much) oxygen and the harms it may cause our patients. We both had colds – many apologies for the blocked noses and many sniffs!

We hope you find it useful.

To follow: Dr Matt Thomas from the Great Western Air Ambulance discussing his groups work around reducing hyperoxia post-rosc.
