Discuss the difficulties of consent with emergency clinical trials. Exception from informed consent is a detailed process that can result in low numbers engaged in the education through traditional means. Social media is the new frontier for reaching the public and helping them learn more about emergency research. Results from the most recent trial and the social media campaign will be discussed with successful aspects and areas for improvement. Learn more about it or learn from our experience.

Learning Objectives:

• List and describe one or more survivor / rescuer stories that can be used to illustrate an effective chain of survival for cardiac arrest.
