This month for the July 2023 episode of the RCEM Learning Podcast we've got a New in EM segment looking at the highly publicised PATCH-trauma trial looking at the use of TXA in trauma. We then hear from Becky & Chris about the new NICE head injury guidelines which is the first in a two parter. We then have more Dave McCreary-related content as he speaks with Joseph Mathew about High Acuity Low Occurrence procedures, and then end with New Online.
