In this webinar, learners will be introduced to extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and its broad applications. It is a well-established therapy, and its use is becoming more widespread. Most tertiary facilities have ECMO programs and capability. EMS personnel could be called on to transport these critically ill patients, and this lecture provides a broad overview. ECMO has been used in the field as a resuscitative adjunct. In the future, it is possible that some centers in the United States may consider this option. In this course, Dr. Misselbeck also provides a provocative look at the potential of this emerging technology for the future.

This course will discuss treating cardiac emergencies in the pre-hospital environment. Topics discussed include predicting patient flow, the cardiovascular system, pit crew CPR, cardiac arrest strategies, cardiac arrest drugs, dysrhythmia, ACLS, what to do if the rhythm is too slow or too fast, and other cardio vascular diseases.

This course will examine current trends in burn care for both pediatric and adult patients. We will discuss triage and stabilization, airway and inhalation injury, burn shock and edema, escharotomy, calculating burn size, types of burns, and clinical studies.

Fire and EMS personnel come to work ready to face any call that comes their way. When facing a difficult call, resting at the station between calls, or interacting with other personnel, there may be times that an individual is made to feel uncomfortable in their working environment. Every employee deserves to work in an environment free from harassment. In this course, we’ll examine what constitutes sexual harassment, ways to prevent it, and how to cultivate a safe working environment.

Personal protective equipment (PPE) is a firefighter’s first, but not last, line of defense. In this module, you’ll learn about the different types and limitations of each PPE as well as how to inspect and maintain PPE. Content in this module is aligned with the NFPA 1001 Standards for Fire Fighter Professional Qualifications, Fire Fighter I: 4.3.2 and 4.5.1, “Fireground Operations” and Fire Fighter II: 5.5.4, “Fire and Life Safety Initiatives, Preparedness and Maintenance.”

As a first responder, you may encounter varying types of bloodborne and airborne pathogens. It is necessary to be prepared for these circumstances so that you are better equipped to protect yourself and others and help to stop the spread of potentially dangerous pathogens. This course will discuss bloodborne and airborne pathogens, including the use of personal protective equipment and controlling exposure.
