Episode notes
Protect Airway And Manage Chest Injuries
- If unconscious with vomit or blood, turn the patient to clear the airway while protecting the neck if trauma suspected.
- For penetrating chest wounds, use a chest seal and burp it; consider needle decompression only if trained.
Pack Wounds And Time Tourniquet Release
- For non-amputation wounds not in shock, pack the wound with hemostatic gauze and press hard into the source.
- Release tourniquet within two hours if you can monitor the wound, but avoid after six hours.
Prevent Hypothermia And Keep Hard Copies
- Prevent hypothermia by minimizing exposure, replacing wet clothing, and wrapping the patient.
- Keep a hard copy of vital field guides and practice navigation skills regularly.
