Ep. 10 - Tourniquets from Space Blankets
Manage episode 380581128 series 3440752
In this episode, I discuss the article "Arterial Occlusion Effectiveness of Space Blanket-Improvised Tourniquets for the Remote Setting". In this short blast I get into the meat of this article, and though the authors would tell you that space blankets aren't ready for primetime, I have some thoughts on the matter.
In the podcast, I mistakenly say that you need to be a WMS member to access this article, but you don't! It's available open access here:
