b'CICMxJellybean 5 \\n\\nRecorded at ASM 2018 Hobart \\n\\nProfessor Jean-Louis Teboul\\n\\nProfessor of Therapeutics and Critical Care Medicine at the University of Paris-South and Editor-in-Chief of Annals of Intensive Care.\\n\\nJean-Louis is a huge presence in French, European and International Intensive Care research and practice. It is difficult to understate his achievements to date; hundreds of articles, hundreds of chapters and hundreds of lectures delivered at international conferences. \\n\\nYet when we started talking it becomes clear that the first thing Jean-Louis wants to drive home is not some of his rarified research but some of the most sensible and universally applicable advice for not only the critical care physician but perhaps all clinicians.\\n\\nIndividualise Care, conduct a Risk Benefit Ratio Assessment of every intervention and constant Reassessment.\\n\\nNot only does he push us to focus on the individual in medicine but he has a surprising take on Randomised Control Trials (RCT\\u2019s), an enduring respect for the appropriate use of the PA Catheter and a refreshing enthusiasm for one of the safest and cheapest investigations; passive leg raising.\\n\\nOf course he delivers all this in English. Dealing with the accents of the Kiwi and Australian clinicians is one thing but to make matters worse his interviewer is a fast talking irishman. To illustrate how hard that must be I decided to introduce him in French.'
