New post from @nardoctor ⚠️ • ACS conference on Whole Blood (WB) in prehospital setting: -Trauma/Bleeding to death is the leading cause of death in the US (age 1yo-50yo) -IV Fluids (like Saline) increase death from hemorrhage -When given within 36 min there is a 4X survival Benefit (military data) -1% of EMS agencies carry WB. 1% of patients who need WB, receive WB in the US -Even more important in rural areas (who are less likely to have WB) -Reimbursement ($1K-$1.5K) and logistics difficult but it can be done -PHBTIC, NAEMT, ACEP, NAEMSP, ACS are all working to fix reimbursement/logistics on a national level -Plasma is a cheaper stopgap until Whole Blood is available (note: Dried Plasma coming soon) How can you help?

While it’s easy and important to celebrate our heroes on #nationalfirstrespondersday , we think it’s critical to also remind folks to check in with their circle and/or ask for help if the burden of the job feels to great to bear. We have lost too many incredible friends to sugar coat it - our #firstresponders are subjected to stress and experiences that most civilians can never truly comprehend. Be there for them and each other. You are loved and appreciated beyond the mere words or the “day”. #bethedifference

The epitome of #bethedifferencr 🫡 from @umdmedcenter • The R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center hosted its 34th annual Shock Trauma Heroes Celebration at the M&T Bank Exchange and Hippodrome Theatre tonight, honoring more than 80 trauma professionals and first responders who provided lifesaving care to two critically injured patients. A Montgomery County Police Department sergeant lost both of his legs after a speeding car deliberating struck him ion I-270 in Gaithersburg last year. A Frederick County cattle farmer was critically injured hurt when he was pinned in a skid loader while moving bales of hay in November 2022. The celebration highlights the extraordinary collaboration between Shock Trauma and its EMS partners throughout Maryland. https://ow.ly/Fqj850TTWZ4
