EMS on AIR Podcast

E2: Airway treatment considerations in COVID-19 patients - March 16, 2020


Listen Later

This episode is a follow up to our first podcast that was recorded on March 5, 2020, which focused on EMS awareness and response to COVID-19. Since then, a LOT has happened and Dr. Steve McGraw, the OCMCA EMS Medical Director, provides an update on the status of the situation and what EMS should be prepared for.  Dr. McGraw also gives EMS some tips and tricks to consider regarding treating the airway of a potential COVID-19 patient.  

The Oakland County Medical Control Authority (OCMCA) has produced this podcast series in response to the concerns of our communities regarding the coronavirus disease (COVID-19). It provides context, direction and guidance to EMS agencies and their personnel regarding the current status of the virus, what EMS should be prepared for and where to get the most reliable information.
