🚨 New paper in BMC Emergency Medicine! Adding a simple 📸 photographic aid to verbal instructions improved bystanders’ ability to identify a safe site for intramuscular TXA in a simulated trauma scenario (88% vs 63%). Early TXA saves lives #TXA 🔗 doi.org/10.1186/s12873-025-0…

🚨 New research out now! 🚨 Our Delphi study sets out 104 expert-backed principles for the care of physically trapped patients after road traffic collisions — from rapid, patient-centred extrication to psychological support. Open access: sjtrem.biomedcentral.com/art… #roadsafety

#TalkAboutRoadDeath - and how we prevent them. I want to shout about @PostCollision : The Centre for Post Collision Research, Innovation and Translation. In my #NHS career I was proud to be involved with the rollout of trauma networks which have demonstrably improved road traffic collision (RTC) survival rates and tackled injury severity. One of the areas in need of further research then, and now, is the period in the immediacy of after the crash and data. This is where IMPACT comes in. Have a look ⬇️ post-collision.com/ Also, they want help from interested folk who are survivors, victims or witnesses of a RTC or just interested in helping shape future research. Have a look at the photo which tells you what the Priority Setting Partnership is and what they want to do. This link provides more information. post-collision.com/priority-… If you can help them - please get in touch! @TheRSTrust @timnutbeam

So proud to have attended the IMPACT @PostCollision launch at @Buckfast_Abbey today. @timnutbeam at @DevonAirAmb is doing some truly world class, life-saving work in this field - right here in Devon! 💪 We are delighted to have supported this important work! 👌

🎉We’re extremely proud to share that FPHC, along with @PostCollision and all partners, have been awarded Highly Commended in the #CIHTAwards for the EXIT Project – IMPACT: The Centre for Post-collision Research, Innovation & Translation👏 Read more here bit.ly/3SN4P0D

Want to find out more about IMPACT? Visor down have written this article which explains a little bit more about the work we are doing. Take a look and we’d love to hear your thoughts! visordown.com/news/impact-un…

A packed 24hrs in London for the team! 🏆 Delighted to win the CIHT Road Safety Award 📚 Highly commended for the Research Award 👥 Met with @racfoundation the Forget Me Not group at Portcullis House to support efforts to modernise driver licensing. #CIHTAwards #RoadSafety

🚦IMPACT is proud to launch a global Utstein project on post-collision road injury data, supported by @LaerdalGlobal. Road trauma kills 1.3M yearly—yet we lack a common language for post-crash care. We’re building a global framework. Join us. 🌍 #GlobalHealth #TraumaCare

Very pleased to announce that IMPACT has been shortlisted for two awards at the annual Chartered Institute of Highways & Transportation awards: - CIHT Research award - CIHT road safety award You can find out more about awards and nominees here: ciht.org.uk/news/2025-ciht-a…

Busy day working in collaboration with @PostCollision & @shropsfire on a multiagency training package for anyone responding to collisions Covering the most recent evidence & updated care and extrication Look out for the training package soon Huge thanks to @shropsfire!

Nice surprise in the postbox this morning With a lovely letter for my appraisal Cheers @timnutbeam @PostCollision @DevonAirAmb

The road injury chain of survival. At IMPACT we think this framework is hugely important for all staff involved in post-collision care - right through from dispatch and clinical care, to researchers and policy makers. A new article is available here: gbr01.safelinks.protection.o…

As part of our work looking at the crucial role bystanders can have in improving outcomes following a collision, we have created this to show the potential areas they could impact care. Currently titled the “bystander wheel”….. let us know if you have a more imaginative name!

Awesome to see the IMPACT ambassador network taking shape both in the UK and Internationally. Be the first to hear about upcoming research opportunities and any new evidence - sign up here: post-collision.com/ambassado…

✨Wellbeing in Pre-Hospital Care✨ The FPHC is conducting a survey to find out more about wellbeing within Pre-Hospital Care. It takes 10 minutes and we invite clinicians from all pre-hospital backgrounds and settings. 🔗forms.office.com/r/VaEEJh7mC…

68 siblings of their brother or sister who were killed in young driver collisions have written to ⁦@Keir_Starmer⁩ ⁦demanding action to prevent death or serious injury from young driver crashes. Here ⁦@Independent⁩ tell 2 of many stories #GDL independent.co.uk/news/uk/ho…

It’s a busy week for the IMPACT team. - 1 week to go until the IMPACT conference stream @TraumaCareUK, so the inevitable last minute finalisation - Round 3 of the latest Delphi study closes on Friday - Supporting a regional conference to embed EXIT consensus principles 😮‍💨

Prehospital Resuscitative Thoracotomy for Traumatic Cardiac Arrest - @LDNairamb's experience from 20 years. Amazing effort @ZBPerkins @GreenhalghRob @robbielendrum et al jamanetwork.com/journals/jam… #HEMS #TCA

Median time from injury to TCA (tamponade) 11 mins, but there is a window to intervene in this system (on scene 20 mins post injury). Survival 52% (tamponade) if RT at point of TCA or within 1 minute!… not a treatment for exsanguination in this cohort jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…
