To all you noobs posting about strap placement as long as you maintain c spine it doesn't matter which order the abd straps go on
-
she didnt use the "My Baby Looks Hot Tonight" strap placement mnemonic
-
@wasagabeachpappy actually old timer its chin before head. all in all you need a refresher course.
-
Tighten your straps. "My Baby Looks Hot Tonight". Forehead before chin. All in all, good try.
-
@tcain21 We are taught that in MAssachusetts aswell, and CSM's not PMS....lol i think she might have been thinking of something else on that one
-
The only thing I would tell you to improve on is how long it takes you to put the KED device on.
-
That constitutes a critical criteria failure. Strap order is wrong. Middle, bottom. legs head, top
-
@tcain21 same same, florida here.
-
@SuspiciousAlertness Jesus is that girl hot.
-
we were taught to use the method my baby looks hott tonight for the ked meaning middle, bottom, legs, head, top i live in northern kentucky and i know its a automatic fail if that method is not applied
dont use backboard/spineboard instead use a vacuum matress...backboard will not support the spine...trust me.

@judicator1, regionally, our EMS services do not carry vacuum matresses, but I appreciate the advice! In fact, we rarely use the KED other than for hip stabalization.
Thanks again, I'm happy to hear your suggestions!
