Finally! Anybody out there flying the Hamilton T1 vent in a @MetroAviation program in an EC145 or BK117? If so, talk to me about your mounting solution please. Thanks!

That's what I'm thinking too. Shout out to @FOAMfrat @christifulli88 for mapping his scene vent workflow, seems like it's makes sense and would work. nitter.gq/christifulli88/status/… – at Williamsburg, OH

I applaud Life FLight on their transparency on this incident.
It provides the opportunity to learn from others mistakes.
I know of 2 recent incidents - totaled aircraft in which the programs chose to "sweep it under the rug" with zero media coverage.

I would love @jducanto to study difference in airborne droplet generation with #SALAD technique vs. standard intubation.
Very easy sell to get THAT published!! #HEMS #EMS @MikeSteuerwald @cbatesmd @FLTDOC1 @UCAirCareDoc @NC_ACEP @DrDStuhlmiller

If you didn’t already realize our house of medicine needs to do its own introspection, the largest emergency medicine doc group on FB is kicking out and blocking multiple POC for even asking that the issue of racism is discussed. #medtwitter – at Dallas, TX

8/ Anyway, here’s my story on yesterday’s NTSB hearing: verticalmag.com/news/ntsb-su…

Blocked! I guess I'll take this as a compliment?
“This accident was all but invited by the actions and culture of @SurvivalFlights,” said @NTSB Chairman Robert L. Sumwalt.

Amazing video
Watch this AMAZING dynamic MRI showing what happens to airway with various anatomical head and neck positions
This is exactly why basic airway maneuvers save lives!

Absolute horse shit. How do they even make this stuff up? Fear mongering in the name of preserving corporate profits. Absolutely nothing to do with the reality of actual patient needs and outcomes.
Please -lets debate in an open forum.

Not an isolated incident but the tip of an iceberg. Excellent commentary by @UCAirCareDoc and @cbatesmd

Thanks to @UCAirCareDoc, @Tri2Hover and @cbatesmd for going on the record for this one. In the absence of effective regulatory oversight (*cough* @FAANews) the industry has a greater responsibility to speak out against unsafe practices.
Craig Bates retweeted
Great story by @SharkParsons in which Survival Flight acknowledges it used the Weather Turndown website to find some flights. So yeah, reverse helicopter shopping. verticalmag.com/news/ntsb-su…

.@ECHOHeliOps is offering to help @SurvivalFlights flight crew, who wish to depart the toxic culture at that program, with assistance with relocation expenses. Bravo, @ECHOHeliOps! @MountCarmel, this is the current state of your business partner. @FAANews, what will it take?
