    New look at tourniquets

    I dont have any experiences one way or another, but i did have a question. my instructor was telling us that they took out elevation and pressure points here, so now we just got straight from direct pressure to tk. does anyone else know anything about this?

    Oh man

    My MFR Instructor was talking about checking responsiveness last night, and was very adamant about us using the sternum rub rather then anything else, and it created quite a heated debate in the class. Personally I think the trap squeeze is a much better method. (not that I'm in any place to...

    what Knife do you carry on duty?

    I'm not an EMT yet, but I've had a Kershaw Junkyard Dog II for about a year now and love it. Kershaws aren't friendly towards your wallet, but they are great knives.

    ALS Intercept for Cardiac Arrest

    Being a First Responder student and very new to the EMS field, I am in no position to place an arguement, but I do agree with Aj. It seems to me care would be better on site then while in transport.
