In today's episode we are joined with Gerard (NYS AEMTP) and Emily (NYS EMT, ER-RN) as well as EMT Basic Intern Kelsey, in the first ever Mid-Month Podcast episode. We review a very thought provoking call that presented with Altered Mental Status and Lethargy. We tie in the previous podcast episode "When To Pull The Trigger" as a decision had to be made whether to treat or not treat this patient. Many times in the EMS field we are faced with choices that could benefit or harm our patients.

In today's episode we are joined with Gerard (NYS AEMTP) and Emily (NYS EMT, ER-RN) to have an open discussion about When To Pull The Trigger or When To Sit On Your Hands. Many times in the EMS field we are faced with choices that could benefit or harm our patients. In the examples we discuss in this episode I think you will gain a better understanding of what makes us choose what treatments to go through with and which to hold off on.

In today's episode we are joined with Gerard (NYS AEMTP) and Emily (NYS EMT, ER-RN) to review a call in which a Paramedic and EMT team overshoot the basics and get tunnel visioned with ALS modalities. We also discuss a great journal article in how severe Hypoxia can cause direct Asystole and why PEA is not considered Cardiac Arrest (Link to Journal Article https://rb.gy/kfsjlj). Finally we discuss positioning of a CHF patient in respiratory arrest and why it matters.

In today's episode we are joined with Gerard (NYS AEMTP), Justin (NYS EMT-B) and our EMT-B Intern Kelsey to review a call in which a Paramedic utilizes his skills of observation to piece together a diagnosis. Sometimes EMS providers can not rely on their monitoring equipment to tell the truth. This is why knowing signs and symptoms of disease processes will assist you in deciding a treatment path without wasting time. We will discuss Hypotension, Orthostatic Vital Signs and the now debunked ATLS guidelines for Hypotension and pulses.

In today's episode we are joined with Gerard (NYS AEMTP), Shane (NYS AEMTP) and Justin (NYS EMTB) to review a unique call dealing with Extended Extrication and how it effects our clinical decisions along with the operational decisions made on scene by the EMS providers. We will talk about Rhabdomyolysis and muscle breakdown, why it happens, why we should be concerned and what we as EMS providers can do about it.
