Dr. Nik Matsler is back to discuss the treatment of patients with crush injuries and crush syndrome. Dr. Matsler's insight as an emergency physician and a toxicologist are put to work helping us understand the pathophysiology of crush related injuries. We also try to discuss very practical approaches to these situations which are complex. No two crush injuries will present the same. Many variables contribute to the presentation of these patients. Duration of crush, amount of force applied, the size of the body part crushed, all play a role. There is much EMS folklore about treating these patients prophylactically in order to stave off deadly arrhythmia. Does this work? What treatments matter for these patients? Paramedics and EMS are the first line of care for these patients. How can you give them the best chance of survival?
