Elmo's Song
I’ve written recently above the new advances that have made our care and lives easier: Stretchers going from two man to one man to now power-operated. Airway adjuncts like bougies, LMAs, and of course capnography. Life Pack 5s to Life Pack 10s to LifePack 12 with 12-leads. EZ-IOs. I discovered another one just the other […]

Naloxone in Cardiac Arrest
Hi Monica- I am sorry for the tragic loss of your son. I can't imagine the grief you must feel. The AHA now says first responders can give naloxone if they are uncertain a patient is in true cardiac arrest, where a paramedic would have a heart monitor that would enable them to view the…
