It includes anatomy and physiology of the lungs to include the exchange of gases at the alveolar level and basic techniques of ventilation (BVM and associated airway adjuncts) and assessment of effectiveness of ventilatory efforts. DOT Category: Airway Management.
PULSE: Altered Mental Status
Altered mental status (AMS) is one of the most challenging dispatches EMS can receive.
