Air Methods Prehospital EDucation Podcast Ep. 59: Scales of Uncertainty (00:37:56)
On this show we have espoused the general guiding principal of "when you hear hoofbeats, think horses, not zebras." Sometimes the hoofbeats actually are those of zebras. But what if sometimes there not even zebras, they're unicorns? On this episode of AMPED, our patient has been bitten by a Jameson's Mamba, one of the deadliest snakes in the world. Thankfully, he is an expert herpetologist who is able to talk our team through the steps needed to save his life. But what our team learns is that sometimes that which seems extremely rare results in care that isn't rare at all. Interested in obtaining CE credit for this episode?

Air Methods Prehospital EDucation Podcast Ep. 58: The Muck and the Mechanism (00:36:15)
A brutal incident where a woman gets hit by a truck leaves her with a multitude of injuries, most notably both of her legs bent into a position best described as "frog legs." She's in good spirits and her vitals are good, but her legs bent at that angle means that she cannot fit into our team's helicopter. How does our team get her legs back into place without causing further trauma or risking her stable vitals? Complicating factors is the extremely uneven ground because they're in a cow pasture and the risk of infection is extremely high because the team and the patient are surrounded by cow patties. There is no training for this exact scenario, so how does our team adapt and apply the training they have to this unique situation? This episode of AMPED digs in.

Air Methods Prehospital EDucation Podcast Ep. 57: The Gravity of the Fall (00:31:39)
In an incredible twist of irony, this month's case focuses on our flight crew loading into their helicopter to be dispatched to... a patient who has fallen out of a helicopter. From a height of approximately 40 feet and at a speed of 30 knots, our patient has an abundance of injuries, which requires our team to remember their axiom: "Slow is smooth, and smooth is fast." This episode also introduces an important question: How do we intervene in different kinds of shock? Our patient had three different kinds: Hemorrhagic, neurogenic, and obstructive shock. Listen in as our guest, along with our panel, deconstructs one of the rarest cases in AMPED history. Interested in obtaining CE credit for this episode? Visit OnlineAscend.com to learn more.

Air Methods Prehospital EDucation Podcast Ep. 56: The Zebra Call (00:28:50)
A common aphorism in the medical community comes from Dr. Theodore Woodward who said in the 1940s, "When you hear hoofbeats behind you, think of horses, not zebras." It's a way of reminding medical practitioners that the most common explanation is usually correct. In other words, Occam's Razor is usually correct. But what happens when the most common explanation isn't correct? What happens when you turn around and find a zebra looking at you? In this month's episode, our team finds a pediatric patient who seems to have had a stroke. Stroke is very uncommon in children, but that doesn't mean it never happens. Listen in as our team starts with the basics, analyzes the feedback, and arrives at their conclusion. Interested in obtaining CE credit for this episode? Visit OnlineAscend.com to learn more.

Air Methods Prehospital EDucation Podcast Ep. 48: The Pinkie Promise (00:41:34)
A pinkie promise is a promise you cannot break, and it's one our patient in this month's episode made to his wife when he was stricken with a life-threatening COVID infection. She made him promise that he would pull through the ordeal, and he did... but not without many bumps in the road. Our team not only battled our patient's COVID, but also a nasty case of pneumonia that ultimately led to him needing to be placed on ECMO, which, as you know, is usually a last resort. Listen in as they transported him prone, which our team had never done before in 20+ years of experience, dealt with an unexpected hailstorm during transport and find out how our patient ended up doing after a lung transplant.

Air Methods Prehospital EDucation Podcast Ep. 45: Heed Your Intuition (00:37:25)
A seemingly simple heart attack gives our team pause because the patient presents a litany of conflicting symptoms.

When our team is dispatched in the middle of the night to a hospital that almost never calls them requesting air transport for a case of an obstructed airway that doesn't, at first blush, seem like it warrants it, our team approaches with caution and curiosity. When they arrive, something doesn't add up and they first opt to phone the on-call doctor to explain the situation, and then dig deep into their bag of tricks - a la famous, resourceful TV character MacGyver - to improvise a unique solution.

Air Methods Prehospital EDucation Podcast Ep. 39: Don't Let the Perfect Be the Enemy of the Good (00:35:02)
Any pediatric case comes with a higher degree of tension due to a variety of factors including compensatory responses to distress leading to a precarious "cliff" when those compensatory efforts cease. When our team is dispatched to a 5 year-old child struggling to breathe, yet still shows strong vital signs, how will the AMPED team respond? This episode discusses at great length understanding that even though we should strive for perfection in every action we take, sometimes "good" is good enough because recovery is a long road and there are skilled and caring teams awaiting us when we hand off our patients.

Our Air Methods team uses creativity, determination, skill and compassion to exhaust every possible method to help our patients achieve even the slimmest possibility of survival.
