Hey,
Currently volunteering with a SAR organization and just finished a technical training for pt extrication using a Stokes. During training we used the Stokes with belay and pulley systems to pull pt up cliffs etc... If the pt requires an IV would securing the bag on the chest provide enough fluid pressure to prevent blood flow back in the line? I'm used to ambulance based operations and wilderness emergency medical care is still new.
