Russian Roulette - The American Way
Parents don't know that inhalants - cheap, legal and accessible products, are as popular as marijuana. Even fewer know the deadly effects the poisons in these products have on the brain and body when they are inhaled or "huffed." It's like playing Russian Roulette - the user can die the 1st, 10th or 100th time a product is misused. This presentation will explain the pathophysiology of various gases, nitrites, volatile substances and other information you need to know about this deadly underground problem affecting teens and pre-teens.
Trachs and Tubes and Shunts, Oh My! Technology for Special Needs Children
Most EMS training teaches us how to deal with the “average” patient. Due to advances in medical technology and more plentiful support services, children who have suffered critical injuries and those with unique disease states are being cared for at home more than ever. This presentation will explain the most common equipment and technology that pre-hospital providers will encounter when caring for these patients.
The Miracle Of Life...Almost
Luckily, most pre-hospital deliveries involve a catch, suctioning and warming the newborn. Sometimes though, Murphy’s Law gets in the way - resulting in a complicated birth. Topics including placenta previa, abruptio placenta, shoulder dystocia, CPD and breech birth are explained in this not-always-necessary-but-essential-to-know presentation.
