Sternal Interosseous fluid administration
Does anyone have the link to one of the armed services branches that put out the video of the sternal I/O being placed? I think it was army and a short 20-30 second vid clip on it's placement...Any help would be appreciated.
Of course the next question is....does anyone have any experience with the device.
This will hopefully begin a thread of how to get fluids in, how much, how often and what kind of fluid (crystalloid vs. colloid or combo) under combat circumstances.
