      AdamsFamily78 yet it’s weird, most search and rescue in the uk use full length back boards and would usually stabilise the patient first before evacuation, I think these guys just worry about getting the patient out, not so much patient welfare

    • @MillionFoul

      @@Nathan-zv3hs It's a different kind of rescue for a different situation. In this case, they are worried about the patient having sustained internal injuries which cannot be treated on scene and that the patient may succumb to hypothermia very rapidly. In this specific operation, odds are they do not have an approved method for winch-lifting an entire backboard, nor a crew paramedic. Many of their extractions are from challenging terrain where treatment cannot be safely undertaken, or where treatment is not required (such as exhausted climbers on cliff-sides) and as a result their primary focus is on extraction rather than treatment.

      @Nathan-zv3hs 5 років тому +1

      MillionFoul we watched the same video? Not once was internal bleeding brought up, the first crew dropped only got told about a broken leg.. never was anything else mentioned. As I say we used sea kings in all kinds of weather to get someone out, the leg could have been braced better for the winch up, but their priority was simply getting the job done, not so much patient welfare, I understand where your coming from. But after seeing so many rescues here, it’s crazy to see how others do it.. ain’t they flying a Huey? Plenty of room got back boards etc. Just like our sea kings

    • @MillionFoul
      @MillionFoul 5 років тому +1

      @@Nathan-zv3hs It may not have been mentioned on the ground, neither of the ground personnel were the flight medic; and they probably planned their extraction before arrival considering their equipment was all ready to go at the start of the video. Also comparing a Huey and a Sea King is pretty apples to oranges, the sea king can lift 11000lbs more, and therefore has a much higher performance margin (especially considering the altitude rescues like this one might be performed at). Either way, my point was not that they could not use a backboard but rather that it may not be part of their regular equipment for a variety of reasons, including normal operational requirements and performance.

    • @Nathan-zv3hs
      @Nathan-zv3hs 5 років тому +1

      MillionFoul I never compared them.. that’s your American mentality kick in.. relax, nobody is here for a competition.. I was simply stating that helicopter was designed to pick up back boards in one of your failed wars.. yet it can’t take a back board now? He simply asked what was hurting and practically nodded lol like we can agree on.. his job isn’t patient welfare it’s simply to get them out of there. We’d have strapped his leg up at least so he doesn’t have to feel his tib, fib fractures grinding against each other every second he’s going up to the helo, but is what it is.. he got out of there so be it, but for a country that charges medical bills you’d expect them to try a little more, Jesus fuck we have free healthcare here and get treated like the medics own son or daughter, these guys simply just wanna be in and out.. simple

    In case anyone reading this frequents avalanche prone areas. If you are in an avalanche before you come to rest tuck your nose and mouth into your elbow to create an air pocket. Once buried spit to determine which way is up, then see if you can move anything. If you’re trapped stop trying to move and relax as much as possible to conserve oxygen. There are anecdotes of people peeing to melt the snow and gain some mobility.
    When in backcountry you should always have at least one avalanche transponder on your person, but ideally two. They sell winter clothing with these built in. And also your party should have a locator for these transponders.
    If your friends are missing after an avalanche you need to act quickly and begin searching by sticking a stick into the ground, and using the transponders if you have one.

      this is pretty sketchy advice not gonna lie. Know the snow conditions where you are going, avoid avalanche terrain if at all possible, wear a transceiver AND KNOW HOW TO USE IT, make sure everyone in your group has a transceiver , shovel, and prove and has trained to use them.
      The devices that are sewn into clothing are RECCO and can only be detected by professional rescuers with the proper equipment.

      You can take all the precautions in the world and still run the risk of getting caught in an avalanche, and in that case the advice she provided actually seems very helpful. Spitting to find what way is down would have never occurred to me. The other tips seem like they'd work, too.

      MillionFoul - Snow alone is the primary cause of both injury and fatalities in an avalanche. It is possible to be killed by impacting rocks in an avalanche, but snow alone is the usual culprit.

The weight of the snow is essentially irrelevant to the victim insofar as injuries which might be sustained and asphyxiation, the main killers in avalanches. You can asphyxiate in a foot or twenty feet of snow and you can experience fatal trauma in a slide of any size. I am suppositing with my comment that the primary factor which dictates your survival in an avalanche is whether you are killed by trauma or not, which is true, insofar as if you get killed by a rock, getting dug up is irrelevant.
