As Professor the Lord Darzi of Denham OM KBE PC FRS, chair of the Fleming Centre Initiative at Imperial College London says, we must tackle antibiotic resistance from every direction. https://lnkd.in/e4vRqiwM Somnus’ contribution to the challenge of AMR will be to optimise sedation in the ICU patient and reduce the risk of infection associated with excessive sedation happening in the first place. The fewer antibiotics we need to prescribe, the more chance we have of preventing AMR and the crisis that will result from having no antibiotics left at all that work. https://lnkd.in/eEXc9zmE
Brilliant well done
𝗕𝗟𝗘𝗘𝗗 𝗞𝗜𝗧𝗦 ❤️🩹 | We’ve now successfully sent out 420 new bleed control kits, paid for and commissioned by Simon Foster PCC Birmingham’s allocation of 185 have now all been collected, adding to the 46 in #Coventry, 46 in #Sandwell, 42 in #Wolverhampton, 38 in #Walsall and #Dudley, and 25 in #Solihull. The medical supply packs are designed to be easy to use and to keep an injured person alive, until they can receive treatment from a paramedic or doctor 👩⚕️ 🚑 On average it takes an ambulance eight minutes to reach a patient – but bleeding from serious injuries can prove fatal in as little as three minutes. A bleed control kit can save lives, so treatment can begin before paramedics arrive 🙌 West Midlands Police and Crime Commissioner Simon Foster said: “These kits are a simple but clever idea that provide users with the equipment and instructions needed to save a life.” Pictured: Ladywood Fire Station Watch Commander Russ Edwards, The Daniel Baird Foundation's Lynne Baird & Rae-Ann Preece, and West Midlands Police PCSO Zoe Bishop 🤝

!! Important Update from the American Red Cross Advisory Council !! New guidelines have been released regarding Anti-Choking Devices (ACDs). According to the American Red Cross Advisory Council, "If standard treatment is not working or not feasible, Anti-Choking Devices may be used for attempted removal of airway obstruction." This is a significant step in addressing choking emergencies when traditional methods may not be enough. Every family, school, and first responder should have access to an airway clearance device!! If you know of a police department, first responder department, or a school in NJ that are in need of these life saving devices, please have them reach out to us either through social media or our email info@maverickslegacy.org to set up a FREE demo and donation of these devices in memory of Maverick Chambers. #maverickslegacy #LifeVac #savealife #ChokingPrevention #ChokingAwareness #bechokeaware #ARC #americanredcross #advisorycouncil #airwaymanagement #airwayclearance #childloss #LocalNews #infantloss #childsafety #SaveTheChildren #nj #usa #Government #njkids #NJSchools #firstresponders #police

Statistics show that 25,000 Australians experience an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest each year and 18,000 of these happen within residential settings. Making home the most likely place for Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) to occur. We specialise in strata as it is not realistic for every Australian home to own a defibrillator. However, through a community approach we are able to target SCA statistics more efficiently with a single defibrillator serving multiple homes at a shared cost to owners. With 4.2 million Australians now living in strata property, we see strata as an effective platform to save lives within communities across Australia. #Strata #Defibrillator #Safety #OwnersCorporation #StrataManager #AED #SuddenCardiacArrest #WhyStrata
