5 hours to teach? Are we then concentrating on trauma Tx? If so, how about the following:
1. Use of an NPA
2. How to do a good primary survey (reminding the guys that GSWs often have entry AND exit holes, how to log roll a pt, etc)
3. Quick refresher on TQ use (pre-made and expedient, placement, etc)
4. How to Dx a tension pneumothorax and perform a needle thoracostomy (is that the right term?) or apply an expedient flutter valve.
5. Make everyone open up their med kits, pull out each item, briefly go over its use and repack it so the equipment, its purpose and its location is fresh in everyone's mind.
6. Narcotic/other pain med administration
