The top (green) strap is the last thing you secure, before moving to the backboard. Manufacturer recommendations are: middle, bottom, legs, head, and top. You basically inhibited your patient from breathing by securing the top strap so early.
What? You're not supposed to jolt a potential spinal injury around like they're a ride-along with Matt's Off Road Recovery? At that point, holding her head seems a bit pointless, since you're basically just isolating the head while yanking the torso all over the place. Doesn't really matter which end you're cranking on the neck from.
Place a C-Collar on the patient Place the KED behind the patient, squaring it with them Position it high up underneath the arms Palpate the back for any deformities, same as a backboard. Do up the 3 chest straps Do up both leg straps Do up the head straps across the forehead and chin Grab handles and make seat under patient's legs, lift and move accordingly.
I've never seen a ems system that puts this on a rig nor does my state give a shit about it. Also hilarious that they plan to lift someone like that when it's basically intended for use in car accident victims. BUT I've only been in uniform for 20 years so what would I know.
Why so many dislikes? just asking. I'm newly a firefighter (5 1/2 months) and this is the first time seeing this device. are they doing something wrong? is that why more dislikes than likes?
Because the way he is teaching it will get you multiple critical fails on the practical test for EMT. The order in which he tightens the chest/abdomen straps alone will fail a student.
disliked as soon as they put c-collar on before checking for any dcap-btls, jvd, td, step-offs, or the condition of the clavicles. I'm just an emt student myself but what the heck. You're not going to be taking that thing off to check for those things later.
Still, I'd like to hear them at least verbalize those things, like "for the skills test it's not required BUT we're gonna check for...." those things are vital for pt. assessment in the field, regardless of the skills test. Just a pet peeve of mine.
+Grace Williams Fair enough, but as an instructional video whose purpose is to help someone pass an exam, it doesn't deserve a dislike for not addressing something that isn't needed to pass said exam. Can't speak for the rest of it because I stopped watching after other comments said it had several crit fails. I'm just saying.

If anyone is taking a state practical, be very wary of this demonstration. Multiple critical fails.

sitting freely on a chair, in upstraight position, and with a collaborating patient, it's just an impossibile scenario
Right. You got a patient like that, just give her the keys and let her drive.
Remember "My Baby Looks Hot Tonight!"
T. Wiz I was also taught my baby looks hot tonight. Please explain because I don’t remember. Here in Fairfax county we don’t even use the KED anymore
Middle, bottom, legs, head, torso, “(M)y (B)aby (L)ooks (H)ot (T)onight”
Never pull and tug on straps. Considering spinal injury ALWAYS feed through the strapd for spinal patient safety.
Place a C-Collar on the patient
Place the KED behind the patient, squaring it with them
Position it high up underneath the arms
Palpate the back for any deformities, same as a backboard.
Do up the 3 chest straps
Do up both leg straps
Do up the head straps across the forehead and chin
Grab handles and make seat under patient's legs, lift and move accordingly.
Yellow first...then Red...Legs, Head (STARTING FROM SECURING THE CHIN), THEN GREEN!
The pt laughs all the time😂😂
what to do if the person is too big, it won’t fit?
you are wrong dude,suppose to be yellow first,then red,leg,head and lastly green
Rescuer should understand the difference between head stabilisation and C spine stabilization in trauma management.
but same management or no?
@@kasehnisha5140 gThe way one handles or support the c spine is different
why wouldnt you check both hands and feet and ask can you feel what fingers and toes im touching.

Great for car accidents
So true, I’ve only used it for a car accident victims and only a couple of times. My county doesn’t use them anymore

it's lower abdomen then upper abdomen with head last, correct
oh god
Horrible to say the least. I'd like to be the 58th dislike on this video :)
you did it wrong
disliked as soon as they put c-collar on before checking for any dcap-btls, jvd, td, step-offs, or the condition of the clavicles. I'm just an emt student myself but what the heck. You're not going to be taking that thing off to check for those things later.
Not required on the skill sheet

This is just a demonstration on how to put on KED device...
so many fails...
