Monday, January 12, 2009

Tonight the majority of our EMT's were trained in the latest protocol updates by a Delaware State Fire School Instructor. Some of the updates include the use of hemostatic agents to control severe external bleeding, and the use of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure(CPAP)for respiratory distress or failure, due to cardiogenic pulmonary edema(CHF).
