Simulation station: Chicago Fire Department takes training to a new level.

摘要

Good intentions notwithstanding, the article's scenario and sequence of management therein is mistaken and even dangerous both for the rationale and the order of treatment. Somehow, although the bulk of the article is given to discussing the latest theories of hemorrhagic shock management, the scenario's actual order of treatment directly contradicts the article's learning objectives.The article, by being featured in JEMS, a premier source of information for many EMS professionals, is bolstered in its apparent validity. And for those readers who rely on the typically academic, but potentially misleading measure of validity, (i.e., the number of references cited), let's just say that many of them are listed without contributing useful information.
