25.01.2022 A fantastic example of bleeding that needs surgical intervention in a hurry for the possibility of a good patient outcome - If the descending aorta is compromis...ed (not shown), regardless of REBOA or an AAJT, you NEED cold surgical steel ASAP! Repost By @savageparamedics: The internal thoracic artery spurting blood!! Medicaltalks The artery shown here, previously called the internal mammary artery, supplied the anterior chest and breasts. The surgeon applies pressure on the artery and when releasing, the artery spurts blood out in rhythm with the heart pumping. Blood pressure causes the blood to bleed out at a rapid, intermittent rate, in a spray or jet, coinciding with the beating of the heart, rather than the slower, but steady flow of venous bleeding.

23.01.2022 Hi Everyone, Please watch this video from China in relation to the use of CPR by a total stranger.

23.01.2022 Todays topic is pelvic injuries following traumatic amputations following a blast. During some training we often see people being to taught to "drop a knee" on... the pelvis to slow bleeding while applying a tourniquet during a blast scenario. Its important to note that many amputations caused by blasts have associated pelvic fractures. By applying pressure to an unstable pelvic fracture, a provider can damage arteries and cause massive internal blood loss. "Dropping a knee" can lead to further damage and internal bleeding. It is recommended that any casualty with an amputation caused by a blast should be treated with a pelvic binder when the situation allows for application. There are commercial devices (The pelvic binder, T-POD a d SAM Pelvic sling) however the SAM Junctional TQ and the Junctional Emergency Treatment Tool (JET) may also be used. Its important to remember that the pelvic binder should be placed across the Greater Trochanter of the femurs and NOT across the iliac wings. Avoid log rolling the casualty during application. Background information: -77 patients with lower limb amputation after a blast injury -10% with unilateral amputations had pelvic fractures -30% with bilateral amputations had pelvic fractures -39% with bilateral above knee amputations had pelvic fractures.
