Motor vehicle accidents are some of the most common EMS calls throughout the country. When responding, there are many factors you must keep in mind, while quickly assessing the situation. This training collection will examine priorities and considerations for patient care during extrication, as well as some common trauma injuries you may encounter (such as TBI, crush injuries, and shock). Rommie Duckworth and Christopher McLaughlin will discuss how to care for these patients and considerations for coordinating delivery of care during extrication.
As ALS providers, we can feel the pressure to intervene rapidly when indicated for patients. However, we have a responsibility as providers to ensure we are providing the appropriate level of care and doing it correctly. In this training collection, Jeremy Williams discusses best practices for preparing for intubation, induction agents, Rapid sequence intubation (RSI), drug-assisted airway management (DAAM), and delayed sequence intubation (DSI).
