BACKGROUND
Prehospital hemorrhagic shock accounts for approximately 25,000 civilian deaths annually in the United States. A balanced, blood‐based resuscitation strategy is hypothesized to be the optimal treatment for these patients. Due to logistical constraints, delivering a balanced, blood‐based resuscitation is difficult in the prehospital setting. A low titer O+ whole blood (LTO+WB) ground ambulance...
Background Intrathoracic pressure regulation (IPR) therapy has been shown to increase blood pressure in hypotensive patients. The potential value of this therapy in patients with hypotension secondary to trauma with bleeding is not well understood. We hypothesized that IPR would non-invasively and safely enhance blood pressure in spontaneously breathing patients with trauma-induced hypotension. ...
Multiple studies illustrate the benefits of waveform capnography in the nonintubated patient. This type of monitoring is routinely used by anesthesia providers to recognize ventilation issues. Its role in the administration of deep sedation is well defined. Prehospital providers embrace the ease and benefit of monitoring capnography. Currently, few community-based emergency physicians utilize capnography...
