Ambulance Crash Test - Performing Skills CPR

[Johnsmac]

No stars for this. CPR is pointless in a moving ambulance. Get a return of circulation before moving the patient.

who does cpr these days... old fashioned..

[klacklery]

he never established an airway

[alexwoot5106]

those straps are not very feasible....if you are working with other medics on a code in the back or a major trauma...those straps wouldnt do anything but impede progress...and if you were in a wreck..they wouldnt do much good anyway...look how much they strech out anyway...they arent gonna keep you from bouncing around

[twoid]

uh, how about intubating?? that way you dont have to screw with bvm and mask each ventilation cycle...

[NewRiverValleyEMT]

I'm not sure what the point would be in dropping a airway in a manican? or however you spell it.

[djtrix003]

maybe its a basic. cant intubate.

[desertbum8]

@djtrix003 Basics can intubate. At least in CA.

[djtrix003]

@desertbum8 In NC they can as well, but only with a BIAD. Tracheal intubation is reserved for EMT-I/99 and up only.

[wakeoforion999]

@desertbum8 we cant here :,(

[emt89]

im sorry...but i would never wear those straps.

[leviathan85]

Then enjoy your gruesome death. :S Come on man, please buckle up for your safety. Nobody wants to see you get killed.

[thebleedenator]

i always wear my seatbelt when i can... but sometimes you can't treat the patient that way (it sucks but its the sad truth)

always wear your seatbelt, even on the engine and/or truck

[xboxjumps]

@thebleedenator you should my dad does not but he will get out of the car faster and he was a cop
