Nice job. I was pleased to see that you included indications and contraindications. Only one criticism. We should be assessing circulation, not just a distal pulse pulse. Skin color, temperature, and condition is very important.
Interesting, if there are signs of poor circulation within an otherwise obviously fractured leg, would that suggest a more obvious life threat has yet to be managed? (Studying EMS so I was wondering.)
Fake Name poor skin perfusion would be an indicator of possible vascular compromise in the lower extremity, unless found globally. The NSC changed the nemonic from PMS to CMS because finding a distal pulse can be difficult, and a broader understanding of how the limb is perfusing is important.
@@AbbyHarning The pedal pulse is not that difficult to palpate, kiddo. Obviously, if a medic does not locate that PP 🙄...then a more detailed assessment is required.
NSC? I must have been autocorrected. Most current EMS trauma curriculums emphasize CMS. Perfusion to the skin in the effected extremity is important, and pulse ox can be used to monitor for perfusion changes when used on a digit of the the effected extremity. Kudos to putting together an excellent demo. It’s easy to be an armchair quarterback.
A half-assed trained EMT that's why. In her defense, you are supposed to lift the injury slightly and pull manual traction however hot that f****** high.

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!
why you say this is the best or professional?? is a good one ok, but why isn´t she on her knee? stand on foots is not an option to work in this manuver and bad example to wievers.
Raynel Ramos I’m getting emt b training at ecp and my instructor says the one maintaining manual traction is in theyre feet so the other emt can pass the splint through their legs to place under the patient. I didn’t do it once during practical class and he told me that
