The regions very own EMS medical director, Dr. Maggie Noonan! Such a pleasure to work on advancing prehospital care with you every day.

For Margaret Noonan, MD, the best way to become a better emergency physician was to work at a true community hospital. It’s why she chose to practice at Charlotte Hungerford Hospital.

As many in the community know, we’ve had blood products in our Torrington area paramedic flycar for a while now. With that being so successful in delivering care to those who need it throughout the county, as of today we are extremely happy to share we have extended our blood program to include our Winsted area paramedic flycar as well. By deploying blood in an additional vehicle in our region, it will allow us to begin administering lifesaving transfusions in the field quicker. Pre-hospital transfusions are no small feat. They require a lot of logistics behind the scene, specialized equipment, and the ability to manage a critical patient’s other needs on top of all the steps needed for a safe and successful transfusion. Pre-hospital blood transfusions along with the many specialized things carried in our vehicles help us provide the best care possible to the community by bringing lifesaving care wherever and whenever it is needed.

After a lot of hard work, we are proud to share this study getting published using our team of highly skilled paramedics as the subjects. There is a lot of research to be done in the prehospital world and we are incredibly happy we were able to contribute to learning and advancing our profession. Hopefully, our team will be able to do more research like this in the future to help us continue to provide the best care possible to our patients.

This publishing comes with the perfect timing, as our program is about to implement a point of care ultrasound program encompassing much more than just cardiac views within the next few weeks. A lot of training has gone into our team that has already proven themselves more than capable with this initial ultrasound pilot program - the first paramedic program in the state with such technology.

Background: Cardiac point-of-care ultrasound (cPoCUS) can detect occlusive myocardial infarction (OMI) in the absence of diagnostic electrocardiogram (ECG) by assessment of left ventricle (LV) function. The feasibility of cPoCUS to assess LV function in the prehospital setting is unknown.Objective:....
