While RocketMedic is currently taking a break from this forum... I don't see AI being "passive" at all if it is listening and then offering suggestions. To do so requires it to be an active participant. With the level of AI capability right now, having it be something like the Star Trek EMH...

But it's also not "Local's" job to assist the crowd in their mission to disrupt or obstruct the Federal LEO's job. The instant a crowd no longer is peaceful, it IS the job of the Local LEO to deal with it. If they don't, then someone in the Local's chain of command could be held responsible for...

Aside from the FBI, which has their own Academy (covers all the material FLETC does), there are a HUGE number of Federal Law Enforcement Officers from quite a few agencies that all go through FLETC for their Federal Law Enforcement Training. Here's a list of the agencies that send their LEOs to...

If the AI is used as basically a "pre-check" step of looking over your charting to see if there's anything you've missed, if there might be an alternate protocol that may have been followed, etc., then I can see AI being a useful tool in that instance. I wouldn't necessarily want AI to write my...

It's been shown over and over again that when you physically write notes, you help your brain recall the information that was presented to you. When you REWRITE your notes into something more legible soon after the initial notes were written, you further improve your recall of that information...

I have moved the thread to the education forum from the ALS discussion area… Now then, I’ll bite. The biggest things that have helped me during my own journey in my healthcare education was actually something that should have been done by now for you too and that’s getting a good foundation in...

While this may be true, you were limited by your education as an EMT as to the depth of your assessments. Now as a Paramedic student, your assessment skills are getting an overhaul and you now have an idea of the level of assessment that an EMT can do vs what a Paramedic can do. Even so, when...

Yes, I snipped a bit… but suffice it to say that when I’m actually working as a CCT-RN, I’m clearly on-duty and not a “random” nurse. We Paramedics don’t normally question if a flight RN can provide ALS care on-scene so I know that allowing on-duty transport nurses to provide that care is...

It is It is when a medication is used in an off-label manner that isn't in any accepted use that a medical practitioner becomes a test pilot, so to speak, for that medication. In that instance a more strict liability case can be made. Since the FDA doesn't regulate medicine, failure of the FDA...

Actually, NCLEX may seem to have ACLS baked into it but one does not need to know ACLS to pass it. The two exams are built very differently. I cannot get much more specific as to content of the NCLEX as there's effectively an NDA in place about the actual exam. Just know that also ACLS can...

So true...

Consider what a KT does and how it works. Then perhaps you might rethink your assertion here.

What about the initial image makes you think defibrillator pads were used?

Given the "inability to trigger it" sounds more like problems with BiPAP. CPAP doesn't require triggering... as you well know.
