This month for the December 2023 episode of the RCEM Learning Podcast we welcome our new co-host Liz Farah. Merry Christmas!. We discuss two New in EM segments looking at overnight boarding of older patients in the ED and mortality and looking at the use of opioids in treating back pain. Rob and Liz discuss two guidelines looking at the management of hypertension in the ED and the investigation and management of cauda equina syndrome. We then end with New Online.
