I was very lucky to be contacted by Dr Zudin Puthucheary, Senior Lecturer and Consultant in Intensive Care Medicine, who asked me to record this conversation between himself and Dr Jim Buckley, Consultant in Intensive Care medicine, and Dr Brijesh Patel, Clinical Senior Lecturer and Consultant in Cardiothoracic Intensive Care.
