Thankfully her team recognized changes in her behavior and mood and offered abundant help. This episode covers not only the case involving the infant patient, but the aftermath and care for our clinicians.

Air Methods Prehospital EDucation Podcast Ep 36: Sometimes the Solution Is Obscure
Our profession requires extensive and exhaustive training. Much of it can seem esoteric and possibly unnecessary at the time, but we train on all of these things for a reason. When our team comes upon a severely burned patient, they extent of the burns causes a melange of difficulties. Could an obscure, and rarely used, procedure ultimately help and provide the patient more time? The AMPED team discusses this little-used technique and we discuss the importance of remaining familiar with the abundance of techniques and treatments we learn during our training.

Air Methods Prehospital EDucation Podcast Ep 35: Hope Is a Good Thing...
As first responders, the odds of patient survival are not always in our favor. But that does not stop us from working quickly to provide the highest level of care for the chances of defying those odds. In this episode, a 10 year-old boy wrecks on his bicycle, a fairly common occurrence and one that rarely requires air transport, yet when our team arrives on scene, his vitals crash in front of their very eyes. What's going on? And what actions do they take to save his life? An inspirational, harrowing and odds-defying episode of AMPED awaits you this holiday season.

Air Methods Prehospital EDucation Podcast Ep 34: Don't Be a Canary
Things are not as they seem on this month's episode of AMPED. Our team arrives on scene to find first responders dealing with a chemical burn and administering CPR. But something is amiss. This episode is a stark reminder that no matter the time of day, no matter the other circumstances, our role as clinicians is to stay vigilant in our analysis and always to assess every aspect of the situation thoroughly.

Air Methods Prehospital EDucation Podcast Ep 33: Look One Way, But Go Another
In a Florida nature park, a woman is bitten by a snake, which is not terribly uncommon in this part of the country. What is unusual is her reaction to it, which is severely anaphylactic. With limited resources in the sprawling park, a closing window for treatment, and critical decisions to be made instantly, how will the team assess, handle and treat our patient in this week's episode? And why such a severe reaction? Find out when you tune in.

Air Methods Prehospital EDucation Podcast Ep 32: Giving the Gift of Goodbye
Our teams at Air Methods have many checklists they follow to ensure optimal care for each patient. What happens when our teams have to pivot their approach and their treatments because of the uniqueness of each individual? On this episode, our team tends to a car crash victim whose injuries make traditional methods of care impossible, and the team is forced to pivot multiple times to provide treatment. This episode also tackles the question of when it's appropriate to give the patient's family the gift of a goodbye.

Customer Reviews
Great Podcast!
I throughly enjoy listening to the AMPED podcast. I previously worked ground EMS, and now work for a neo/peds transport team. This podcast provides great case review, and allows listeners to critically think their way through the case as well. It offers a fantastic multi-disciplinary approach with the crew, medical directors, and logistical perspective. Keep up the good work!
Very well put together and thought out!
Love the case scenarios and the step by step thought process that is laid out. Very easy to listen to and absorb the information. Love the recaps at each portion. Please keep doing these. More please!
Sad
Episode 35 has no mention of the excellent work the fire crew did on scene and prior to the helicopter’s arrival. A cardiac arrest save is a team effort and the flight crew failed to acknowledge the other half of the pre hospital team. Sad.
Do better, Mercy Air.
