PHARM Podcast 35 : Dr William Hinckley and the Air Medical Physician Association

by ketaminh on August 21, 2012

Hi folks. I am pleased to do another interview with my mate in Cincinnati, Dr Bill Hinckley.

On this episode we talk about AMPA, Air Medical Physician Association. You should all join if you fly or do critical care transport work. I signed up straight after the interview.

We talk about some cool HEMS transport of STEMI patients to PCI research him and his mates have been doing. Here are the abstract links :

Acad Emerg Med. 2012 Feb;19(2):153-60. doi: 10.1111/j.1553-2712.2011.01273.x.

Ground emergency medical services requests for helicopter transfer of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients decrease medical contact to balloon times in rural and suburban settings.

McMullan JT, Hinckley W, Bentley J, Davis T, Fermann GJ, Gunderman M, Hart KW, Knight WA, Lindsell CJ, Miller C, Shackleford A, Gibler WB.

We finish up talking on prehospital USS and an airway trauma case.

Enjoy

As always, my friend, it was an honor. Thanks for doing what you do! You have any travel plans to come to North America anytime soon, by chance? I’d love to catch up in person, and to get my team the opportunity to benefit from your wisdom and vast skill as an educator.

About Prehospital and Retrieval Medicine

What is PHARM? Its the area of clinical medicine involved with the assessment and stabilisation of acutely ill or injured patients in the prehospital setting, who require transport to definitive care. It requires a wide range of skills and knowledge including emergency medicine, paramedicine, critical care and aeromedicine. The working environments span the entire range of those on our planet and challenges placed on prehospital providers are both demanding, mentally and physically. There is no backup, you are the backup and what you bring with you is all you have. We who work in the area and face these challenges in hostile and austere settings choose to, with the belief that a patient's location should not dictate the level of emergency care they deserve and we can provide. This is the discipline.
