Best tip of the day? Don’t intubate until saturation’s are >93% for 3 minutes. Delay intubation until you get this metric! @DrJeffJarvis @NAEMT_ #WorldTraumaSymposium #EMSWorldEXPO

“We need to focus on developing better and more effective tools for #paramedics to care for patients until they can get them to a trauma center.”-B Eastridge @NAEMT_ #WorldTraumaSymposium #EMSWorldEXPO

When preparing to intubate, set up for 1st pass success by preparing your equipment and your patient! This takes time, don’t rush it! @DrJeffJarvis @NAEMT_ #WorldTraumaSymposium #EMSWorldEXPO

When planning for mass disasters, do you plan for worsening conditions & for night time responses when support teams aren’t available? -J. Weimer

Intubated your patient with the head elevated! This will improve the view, lower hypoxemia, and improve ventilation!-@DrJeffJarvis @NAEMT_ #WorldTraumaSymposium #EMSWorldEXPO

Bougie use improves first past success Odds by 2.18, especially in direct laryngoscopy. Why wouldn’t you use it every time! @DrJeffJarvis @NAEMT_ #WorldTraumaSymposium #EMSWorldEXPO

“Prehospital trauma intubation is hard, our overall success is about 76%“-@DrJeffJarvis @NAEMT_ #WorldTraumaSymposium #EMSWorldEXPO

[Kevin Collopy, MHL, FP-C, FAEMS, FICAPP @ktcollopy]

You will still get appropriate waveforms in properly intubated cadavers. IT works in low-perfusion states!-@DrJeffJarvis @NAEMT_ #WorldTraumaSymposium #EMSWorldEXPO

[Kevin Collopy, MHL, FP-C, FAEMS, FICAPP @ktcollopy]

EMS Systems can’t just look at 1st pass success, you must also monitor peri-intubation hypoxia and hypotension! (report your DASH-1 success)-@DrJeffJarvis @NAEMT_ #WorldTraumaSymposium #EMSWorldEXPO

“Your first pass success on VL vs DL is highly highly dependent upon training, if you’re good with VL daily then that’s ok to stick with it!“-@DrJeffJarvis @NAEMT_ #WorldTraumaSymposium #EMSWorldEXPO

If your patient makes it to a trauma center >90% chance survival, by this point <2% preventable. The greatest opportunity is preventing deaths in the field! -B Eastridge @NAEMT_ #WorldTraumaSymposium #EMSWorldEXPO

One of the most important aspects of mass incident response is holding a debrief, and providing loop closure on the recommendations!-J. Weimer @NAEMT_ #WorldTraumaSymposium #EMSWorldEXPO
