	Description:		Join the EMGuideWire crew as they discuss some tips and pearls on how to skillfully run a medical resuscitation. Pearls Preparation is everything. Get your staff, and get your stuff! Call out names, be redundant, and say what you are thinking out loud. Don’t go for the tube! Supraglottic airways are quicker and safer! High quality compressions are life saving. V-tach and V-fib are usually ischemic. PEA is usually non-cardiac. PEA? Is it Wide or Narrow? Narrow - think procedural. Wide - think chemical. Ultrasound is your friend. RV strain, pericardial tamponade, and pneumothorax can all be quickly found! Wide complex (but not V-tach) is hyperkalemia until proven otherwise. Provide Calcium Chloride (not gluconate).
