Seizures are one of the most common conditions encountered by EMS providers and one where critical interventions can significantly affect patient outcomes [1]. Timely seizure management is a benchmark proposed by a group of metropolitan medical directors and is currently being studied as a performance measure by the EMS Compass initiative [2]. Oxygenation and ventilation…

Benzodiazepines, such as Valium (diazepam), are the first line treatment for seizures. Seizures are one of the most common conditions encountered by EMS providers and one where critical interventions can significantly affect patient outcomes [1]. Timely seizure management is a benchmark proposed by a group of metropolitan medical directors and is currently being studied as…

“Rapidly reading a room and performing a quick visual evaluation of a patient from the doorway helps to identify potential life threats, to you and your patient,” Sammons writes. As we know, the pediatric assessment triangle is often used, rightfully so, as a tool to quickly identify sick kids who may require rapid, lifesaving intervention.…
