Episode overview

About This Episode

A method-driven clinical episode that gives EMS a repeatable decision model for fluids, CPAP, nitrates, and blood products. This episode teaches how to differentiate hypovolemia, cardiogenic pulmonary edema, sepsis, and hemorrhage—so medics stop flooding drowning patients and starving shocked ones.
