[0:00] my name is Rodney Whan and I'm a fire
[0:01] captain and a paramedic with Bloomington
[0:03] Fire and we do more than fire We also do
[0:06] EMS as well Another thing that we do
[0:08] typically is in cardiac emergencies or
[0:11] people that are in cardiac arrest We're
[0:12] able to take their airways and breathe
[0:14] for them when they're unable to breathe
[0:16] for themselves So we'll just demonstrate
[0:18] here We typically train at our fire
[0:19] stations on how we do that So Alex is
[0:22] going to breathe there with the BVM Then
[0:24] I'm going to take our UE scope here And
[0:26] what's cool about this UE scope it's
[0:28] able to record what we do and uh we can
[0:30] also give ourselves feedback on if we
[0:32] miss intubations and we can practice so
[0:34] we can get better at it Now I'm going to
[0:35] have Alec remove the BVM Basically I'm
[0:37] trying to get my tube into the trachea
[0:39] so I can take the airway and breathe for
[0:41] the patient when they're down Now that
[0:43] we have our airway secure we're going to
[0:45] listen to lung sounds and make sure we
[0:47] don't have air in our stomach Here at
[0:48] Bloomington Fire it's important for us
[0:50] to stay consistent on our trainings
[0:52] because seconds matter when it comes to
[0:53] saving someone's life
