Welcome to this weeks #ResusciTuesdays. We will be learning about REBOA in medical cardiac arrest. REBOA stands for ‘Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta’. Its aim is to occlude the aorta and therefore improve blood flow to the brain and coronary vessels. 
REBOA is sometimes talked about alongside other interventions in cardiac arrest such as ECMO and SAAP (Selective Aortic Arch Perfusion - learn more here: intensivecarenetwork.com/selective-aort…). In this we will just be talking about simple balloon occlusion.
In Trauma, REBOA is used by some services to prevent exsanguinating haemorrhage. There is still a lot of ongoing debate about its use in Trauma, but it has been incorporated into clinical practice in places and there are ongoing trials such as @UKREBOATrial
