  • @meatsabawls thats exactly what he did.. what video are you watching?

  • this is wrong, its 2011 things have change im taking my national registry on tuesday and you "scene safe bsi" than apply stabalization, and measure the splint to the non effected leg, than slide it under the affected leg, ishial strap, than the ankle hitch!

  • i didnt think of padding the ischial strap thanks

  • Great video straight to the point... two thumbs up !

  • Yes, if I were lying on the floor, so that a steel beam could neatly hit just my femur, then I would want you to just treat that right away. However, if I were struck and felled by a beam, like would be most likely to happen, I would want you to utilize your protocols, ability to think outside the box, and ability to multitask to treat me as best as possible. Including removal of the beam, which will probably need a rescue truck, IV's for hypo V shock, TK placement if needed, and yes, c-spine.

  • @idigghx ....If a steel beam dropped on your leg and smashed your femur would you really want me to worry about holding C-spine on you, or do what I can to prevent you from losing more upwards of 2000cc of blood?

  • You'd thing.. If there was enough force to snap the femur, you may want to assume there was enough to damage something else. Hence spinal precautions as well.

  • It makes sense to me . Adding the ankle hitch first can be used as an aid in pulling manual traction , causing less strain on the rescuer . It also speeds up the time applying the splint .

  • great video! but is it ok to add the ankle hitch first> it totally makes sense, but we were not taught that way. just a question.

  • Don't forget to assess pulse, motor, and sensor functions before AND after applying the splint.
