Guess where I’ve ended up 3 days in a row? Can’t complain as the bakery is just across the road from the standby point at the town hall! #Ambiwlans #Paramedic #Maesteg #Bridgend #Wales

For those who don’t know, this is Brian Wilson, the musical genius behind The Beach Boys. He packaged 1960s California in pop singles, that married together up-tempo guitar songs with multipart harmonies. He has sadly left us at 82.

Having a 3Lead #ECG function is a luxury on an #AED and these devices all do: LifePak 1000 (with countdown & shock counter); Zoll Pro (rechargeable but a poor display); Heartstart FR3 (Philips best pro-grade #defib but discontinued). #CFR #FPoS #FREC #Ambiwlans #Paramedic

The Zoll #AED 3 has RapidShock™ which has the industry’s shortest analysis time. If needed it delivers a shock in as little as 5 seconds. However, the LifePak CR2 is the only #defib analysing for rhythm during continuous chest compressions. #CFR #FPoS #FREC #Paramedic #Ambiwlans

Aspiration of vomit & raised ICP are major complications of spinal injury management. Pressure sores & hypothermia are also a concern in the UK, due to prolonged conveyance to definitive care following aquatic rescue & immobilisation. #SurfRescue #Lifeguard #Paramedic

The Venturi effect (first published in 1797) is the reduction in fluid pressure (of a liquid or gas) when moving thru a pipe to a smaller section. With masks, moving O₂ meets static air, causing a predictable amount to be dragged into the flow & delivered to the patient.

The tongue is a richly vascular structure, mainly supplied by branches of the lingual artery. Covering #rugby, I’d never attempt to close any similar injury. Out of interest, could this be dealt with by a general #dentist, dental #hospital or #maxfax? www.nature.com/articles/sj....

Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) is where a heart beats much faster than normal. It’s a regular, narrow complex ‘tachydysrhythmia’ (140-280 bpm & QRS<120ms). It can be triggered by caffeine, stress, alcohol, certain drugs, exercise or just occur randomly. #Paramedic #Ambiwlans

Following the death of a 16 year old, a Coroner criticises health board for "normalising" treating emergency department patients in #hospital corridors and slowing down #ambulance handovers. #Ambiwlans #Paramedic www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-n...
16-year-old boy died after waiting nine hours for ambulance
The coroner said the health board's actions slowed down ambulance handovers - the criticism comes after the inquest of 16-year-old Jackson Yeow who died after waiting nine hours for an ambulance
