This #StopTheBleed class was given by Blackwell Training Group and it stressed the importance of knowing how to save a life by not allowing a person with a wound bleed out. This type of information is just as important as shooting. Good stuff to know...(cont)

The role of #TXA has been the subject of varying debate.
This study asks if giving #TXA to #bleeding trauma patients in the #prehospital setting affects 30-day outcomes
This is a critical questions as #trauma remains a leading cause of death around the world

It is crucial we look at point-of-injury methods to control hemorrhage and hopefully affect outcome.
Remember, as this paper shows, there is a significant portion of patients in the prehospital setting that suffer potentially preventable death

I debated sharing but decided there are important lessons within. Yesterday, I came face-to-face w/ the #overdose epidemic. Shortish story... I was one of the first people on the scene of two 40-ish men slumped over in their work van that was stopped on the hwy.
Alone with kids in the car, I was waved down by a panicked commuter. I stopped & was joined by two other men. Both driver & passenger were unresponsive. Driver had shallow breathing but passenger had no pulse or respiration. We pulled him out of the car & I started 2-person CPR.
It was evident they had overdosed. While I keep a trauma/GSW kit in the car, I do not carry #Naloxone. So all we could do is continue CPR (about 6 cycles) before EMTs arrived, at which point he had a weak radial pulse. Shaken, I shook hands & went on my way. So lessons/thoughts:
