Episode 16: Medical Directors Gone Wild

As a special Thanksgiving treat, we bring a “Live” panel discussion featuring Drs. Jeff Jarvis, Jason Pickett, Heidi Abraham, and Taylor Ratcliff. Skillfully (and tactfully) moderated by the awesome Ginger Locke. Recorded 11/26/19 at the Texas EMS Conference in Fort Worth, Texas. Topics include epinephrine and advanced airways in cardiac arrest, paramedic degrees, intubation with paralytics vs. “sedation assisted intubation,” whole blood, IV push nitroglycerine for CHF, POCUS, and discussing clinical errors. This was a ton of fun to record. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did. Happy Thanksgiving!
