Gun violence remains one of the most pressing public health crises in the United States, with profound consequences for patients, families, communities, and the healthcare professionals who care for them. Critical care teams witness firsthand the devastating clinical, emotional, and societal impact of firearm-related injuries, often serving at the front lines of this ongoing epidemic. Join Dr. Selwyn O. Rogers Jr., renowned trauma surgeon, researcher, and author of Healing the Gun Violence Epidemic, for a thought-provoking conversation exploring the root causes of gun violence, the role of healthcare systems in prevention and recovery, and opportunities to move from reactive treatment to proactive solutions. Through the lens of trauma care, public health, policy, and community engagement, this discussion will examine how healthcare professionals can contribute to meaningful change while supporting individuals and communities affected by violence. This webcast will provide critical care clinicians with practical insights into the broader determinants of firearm injury, strategies for violence prevention, and a vision for transforming trauma into healing at both the patient and population levels.
Hosted by the New Jersey Chapter.

Severe respiratory failure is a well-described complication in the trauma population and presents unique challenges that require careful consideration when implementing conventional ARDS therapies. Management must account for individualized carbon dioxide targets when lung-protective ventilation conflicts with cerebral perfusion goals, particularly in patients with traumatic brain injury. When neuromuscular blockade is required, invasive intracranial pressure monitoring may warrant consideration in patients at risk for intracranial hypertension. Finally, in patients with refractory respiratory failure, venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) can serve as an effective rescue strategy and may be successfully employed using anticoagulation-free approaches when bleeding risk is prohibitive.
