iNO is primarily used to treat pulmonary hypertension and Persistant Pulmonary Hypertension of the Newborn (PPHN). It requires specialized equipment that is cost-prohibitive. It will likely only be available in facilities with a NICU that routinely treat PPHN. The weaning process for iNO can last several days. #EMS #Ambulance #EMSEducation #FOAMed #Paramedic #Paramedicstudent #EMT #Nurse #Nursingstudent #CriticalCare #CriticalCareTransport #CCT #ParamedicEducation #PPHN #inhalednitricoxide

According to some studies, pelvic binders are misplaced between 40-50% of the time. They shouldn't wear it like a belt! When properly placed, pelvic binders can help mitigate pain and prevent further displacement aiding in clot formation. Sheets work great, but commercial devices are preferred for their consistency. #OpenBookPelvicFracture #EMS #PelvicFracture #paramedic #criticalcare #CCEMTP #PelvicBinder #paramedicstudent #nursingstudent #nurse #emt #emtstudent #cct #ambulance #prehospital #foamed #criticalcareparamedic #criticalcaretransport #continuityincriticalcare

Good morning! We transport quite a few Stevens-Johnson patients to our local burn center, considering its rarity. These patients are often pretty stable initially but will experience extreme pain due to skin-sloughing and are at increased risk of infection and sepsis. #CriticalCare #EMS #ambulance #paramedic #CCEMTP #CCT #CriticalCareTransport #StevensJohnson #ToxicEpidermalNecrolysis #TENS #nurse #paramedicstudent #nursingstudent #EMTstudent #EMT #ContinuityinCriticalCare

🚨 🚑 We had a fantastic time introducing the Loyola University Medical Center Paramedic Class to Critical Care Transport today! The students asked insightful questions, and it's inspiring to see future medics eager to learn about our specialized field. 🚑 🚨

Everybody needs a montage! A big thank you to everyone who's participated in these projects over the past couple years. You guys rock! 🤘
