SCCM Resource Library-January Journal Club: Spotlight on Pharmacy (2025)

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The webcast introduces the Journal Club Spotlight on Pharmacy, supported by the Society of Critical Care Medicine's CPP section, and moderated by Katherine Smith, a clinical pharmacist. The session features presentations by Emery Johnson, who discusses the use of angiotensin II and its association with thromboembolic events, and Nedra McCarthy, who presents the E-START study, examining the timing of acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) administration after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) surgery. Emery highlights the clinical rationale for using angiotensin II in critical care settings and evaluates the risk of thromboembolic events associated with its use, as the literature shows comparable rates of VTE between study groups. Emery suggests further studies are needed to closely examine potential risks. Nedra reviews the E-START trial, which evaluates the optimal timing for restarting aspirin in high-risk patients post-ICH surgery. The study concludes that early initiation of aspirin on day three post-surgery reduces major cardiovascular events without increasing bleeding risk compared to day 30, despite some limitations like its applicability to diverse populations. The webcast encourages live participation through polls and a Q&A session, providing a platform for further discussion and engagement.
