A simulationist and clinician focused on improving outcomes during resuscitation and delivering care in austere environments. #paramedic#FOAM#BloodyHellSALAD
I present to you, the Blood Hell SALAD.
We're working on the recipe to share, but we used #TrueClot from @LunaInc_Labs.
A huge shout out to @jducanto for filming and allowing us to really muck up the airway.

Hot off the press from Chadason et al. & @ProtectedAirway
Techniques for simulating airway contamination during cadaveric airway training.
Kudos to the first author paramedic Chadason! @le_chaddonlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
Sure.
But get rid of AEMT, make EMT the AEMT scope and make it a year of school.
Our current EMT training model can’t sustain endless additions to the EMT scope safely.
BREAKING: The @CARESRegistry, the only national data collection tool that connects pre-hospital cardiac arrest data with hospital outcomes, will receive $23.85 million in grant funding over the next five years from the CDC. 🙌news.emory.edu/stories/2023/…
CDC commits more than $23 million to expand, modernize CARES, Emory’s nationally recognized cardiac arrest registry program

Unpopular opinion, I prefer the side rails ⬇️ on the stretcher (left). Putting them down is a task done on every call. It's more efficient and one less task to perform.
Enhancing patient care and provider performance through intentional design.
Providers are able to gain access to oxygen through the outside of the backpack without need to rearrange for patient transfer.

I’ve done a lot of simulation around #SALAD and contaminated airway management, but I’ve never seen anything like what @UNMEMSA paramedics students get to do.
Taking training to the extreme so that real-life seems easy in comparison.
For the first time in history, #ESC merges ST-elevation ACS and non-ST elevation ACS guidelines!
#ECG at presentation is a WORKING diagnosis, final diagnosis has to be corrected upon angiography.
An important step towards the occlusion myocardial infarction era recognizing the underlying pathology in these patients.
The #BloodonBoard initiative initially rolled out on May 10 starting w/ Trooper 1 and Trooper 2. So far, blood has been transfused in the field to 21 critically injured patients. Patients who have received blood transfusions have been injured as a result of many types of trauma.

Trending today, cardiac arrest in athletes
Cardiac arrest deaths in young people (under 35) are extremely rare. Less than 300 per year in a population.
There as been no statistically significant change in card arrest deaths under 35, ever.
