54. Thinking Points
“Addicts take opiates and other sedatives
specifically to induce a pleasant stupor. If they’re
lethargic and hard to arouse, but still breathing
EFFECTIVLY, it’s not an overdose.
“It’s a dose.”
Naloxone is for depressed respirations, not
depressed mental status.
Opiate use alone (without depressed
respirations) does not merit the use of naloxone.
55. Administration
EMR / EMT

Tourniquet
58. Even if its not bleeding consider
a tourniquet in this scenario
59. Application
2-3 inches above the wound
Watch for other sites of bleeding
above the wound
Multiple bleeding sites
proximal application
May have to use two
60. Application
Should be tight enough to stop bleeding
The tourniquet should never be placed
Joint (knee or elbow)

Document application time
Write on patient!
61. Application
A prehospital tourniquet should not be
