    Grady Memorial in ATL has had one since 2018 and has the ability to administer clot busters with remote neurologist orders. It was an awesome addition to the fleet.

    FYI. I’m one of those Research techies, too. With three Doctorates (Nursing, Epidemiology, Public Health) plus “playtime” per diem as SCTU Critical Care Transport Nurse and Flight Nurse. Grady Memorial in Atlanta has had Mobile Stroke Unit since 25 June 2018. University of Colorado Health in Colorado Spring has had one since Valentine’s Day 2024. Good videos. Keep them coming.

      @@PfizerRN_USNavyReserveRN oh no its not the ct thats the issue, its UC health. From a health care level they are amazing and its great they got this. However from a beaurocratic aspect they have put rural EMS agencies in a bind lately.
      Agencies like mine rely on U.C health, rather relied, on them for C.E training and medical direction. Recently they have decided to stop that, recently they decided to no longer keep track of C.E hours as well as put the possibility of instructors coming to our areas to do trainings at risk while simultaneously LOOSING our CE hours we have acrued over the year, I had about 15-20 hours prior but I'm down to 8 because they never handed their records over to us. Our medical director who is an amazing guy, but he quit U.C health due to their new CEO and other reasons, this is on top of recent things on the state level (switching to state licensing bringing requirements that more rural agencies cant meet, the government deeming EMS non essential, etc...) its been hard for us.
      I am glad we have the resource out here, but its just one good thing in a grim outlook.

    Fun fact EMS, fire, and police vehicles fall under a different EPA category which allows them to run even when a normal commercial vehicle would cause derates etc. They have different parameters that are only allowed on this type of equipment that fall within this field for obvious reasons.

    How many strokes happen annually in a 10-15 minute response area to outfit an ambulance with a CT? It's not like someone having a stroke who's 20-30+ minutes away is waiting on a specialized unit. I do love the concept and got to see one in person at a fire expo, and they're really cool to check out.

    • @t.j.miller6826
      @t.j.miller6826 Місяць тому

      As a critical care/ER nurse and NREMT-P since 1987 it isn't the radius to an ER but the distance to a certified stroke center, coupled with the time factor of how long did the patient wait before calling for an ambulance. Many studies show that most of the time patients have before permanent damage is caused is used up because they waited to call 911. Therefore bringing definitive care to them saves brain. Plus not every hospital is qualified to treat a stroke properly, just like not every hospital is a trauma center or a burn center. Pre-hospital care is bringing the right resources to the right patient and then transporting that patient to the proper facility (even if it isn't the facility closest or the one they desire) if it will involve a better outcome.
