Manual Updates for January, 2024:
1.EMTs can now pursue an EMT-IV endorsement after completing the mandatory training. The agency must agree to 100% chart review, and this skill may only be performed under the supervision of a paramedic or AEMT. The EMT can only perform the skill and is not allowed to be the primary caregiver for the patient.
2. Trauma Field Triage Criteria has been updated to follow the latest guidelines approved by the American College of Surgeons Commitee on Trauma. Instead of Steps, there are now Red and Yellow categories. Catchment for Sunrise and Siena have remained the same. There have been some adjustments made to Mike O’Callaghan catchment.
3. Adult Cardiac Arrest pearls were updated to allow for the use of mechanical CPR devices on pregnant patients if these devices were approved for this use by their manufacturer. CPR is to follow a pit crew approach, with roles assigned prior to arrival whenever possible.
