IV remains the preferred route, with IO as backup. #EmergencyMedicine #CPR #CardiacArrest These 2 randomized clinical trials compared intraosseous (IO) vs. IV vascular access in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). The first study (Denmark) found no significant difference in return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), 30-day survival, or neurological outcomes between IO and IV access.&amp;nbsp; The second study (UK) showed slightly higher ROSC in the IV-first group but no survival advantage. Both studies suggest IV access should remain the first choice, with IO as a backup when IV is not feasible. &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; ","author_name":"Dr. RR Baliga's 'Podkast for the Kurious Doc'","author_url":"http:\/\/www.MasterMedFacts.com","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/35216400\/height\/300\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/88AA3C\/\" height=\"300\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/content\/184387640"}
