SCCM Resource Library-Super Women: A Highlight of Women's Contributions to Critical Care Medicine in 2020

Video Transcription

Video Summary

Women in critical care medicine have made significant contributions to the field in 2020. Key findings from their research include the impact of IV acetaminophen on patient outcomes, the use of chlorpromazine for agitation in the ICU, the role of hydromorphone in analgesia in ECMO patients, and the resumption of anticoagulation after gastrointestinal bleeding. These studies provide important insights and can help improve patient care in critical care medicine. However, despite these contributions, there is still a need for more research and greater involvement of women in critical care literature. Strategies to increase involvement include mentorship programs, peer compassion, and a willingness to put oneself out there and volunteer for research projects. It is important to support and encourage women in critical care medicine, as they have the potential to make a significant impact in the field. By creating a more inclusive and supportive environment, we can ensure more equitable representation and recognition of women's contributions in critical care medicine.
