This is the first video I've seen on youtube where chest compressions are actually done well, thank you! Steady 100-120 bps, good depth and recoil, arms locked straight, good positioning on sternum.
It is exhausting! That's why it's critical you swap out compressors every 2 minutes while the AED is assessing the electrical activity. Also counting out loud is critical in the beginning because it's the only way for the other person to know when to do ventilations. Once you've got an advanced airway placed and a professional grade AED attached (like a Lifepak) then counting is less necessary since you can just follow the prompts and timer of the machine.
I know this is "for the exam, not for the real world" and this is definitely helping me pass my practical exam. That said, I am staring at the CFR/NYS EMT Trauma PT assessment skills sheet *right now* from 2017 (prior to this video, so it's applicable). Critical mark for circulation in the primary assessment: "assesses/controls major bleeding". There is no stipulation that they do not manage bleeding before the airway, however, that is not good practice. While this is applicable for a demonstration, it is only because the test is *lax* not because it is right. This seems to be confusing many people so perhaps the description should be updated explaining this. This is not how it should be done, though this is an acceptable order for the exam. I'm very confused why they did not manage bleeding immediately.
Hello, I just discovered your video. I've been working to improve traction splints for 25 years and would love to turn you on to another option. Here's one review on our product called the "STS-C": ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EIqvohdVTUU.html Most importantly: - No extension past the foot. - Fits everyone, and no need for a peds version. - Works even if you have concurrent lower extremity trauma. - No need to have Xray vision to be sure your patient has a midshaft femur fracture... It's a splint first that just happens to offer traction, so apply to any leg injury that hurts where fracture is suspected. - Easy to apply by one caregiver, or even to self apply if needed. - Easy to adjust and readjust, even by patients themselves. - Relatively radiolucent (much more so than the Thomas or Hare). - Extremely light and compact. - Fewer pressure points. - Comes with a pressure wrap that can be used for bleeding control making it a multitool. - All parts needed for traction are one piece, so no need to chase around looking for a lost ankle hitch. - Easy to roll the patient and examine the perineum, perform a rectal exam or insert a Foley. - Much less movement of the leg during application, meaning far less painful. Please contact me if you'd like to chat about the product sometime. We'd be happy to get you a sample as well if you'd like to make another video ... Cheers, Sam

Thank you for this Videos.I just graduated from the EMT academy course here in the Philippines.This is extremely helpful for myself home training before i apply to the EMS ambulance company as an EMT. Im still restudying everything i learned from the academy to have the 100 percent assurance and confidence of my efficiency for the EMT job thank you
You both forgot to release manual traction once MECHANICAL traction has been applied. The assistant does *not* need to hold manual traction the entire time!
@@grill.daddy_3433It sure could, don't forget about an increased heartrate, jittery feeling, chest pain, dry mouth, etc...all the other side effects to Albuterol. It doesn't only "open up the lungs"
I thought your not supposed to ask yes or no questions like can you tell me your name? They can just answer yes. Your supposed to ask what is your name
it depends. common answer to can you tell me your name is *patient's name*. sometimes they'll say yes my name is Billy Bob Joe. If you just ask can you tell me and they answer yes, then you can ask what is your name. however, if you ask can you tell me your name and they say no, then that gives you an idea if they are alert and oriented to person, which they are not.
I’m a bit confused, I thought you are supposed to put pressure on the artery to reduce blood flow to the wound and only use a tourniquet as a last resort, did that change?
