How did this flight paramedic kill his patient? Why are we okay with these deadly mistakes?

In this episode, I will tell the story of a flight crew who were called to transfer a patient from a small rural hospital to a larger tertiary care facility in a big metropolitan city.  Something went wrong and the patient ended up dying during transport.  Would it have happened anyway?  Was there a deadly mistake committed by the flight crew?  How might situational awareness have played a role in this story?  All of this and more on this episode.....

What do YOU think?  If you are a paramedic or flight nurse, have you ran a call like this?  Have you made costly mistakes that led to the death of a patient?  If you have a story to share, please email it to me at staff@thedoctormedic.com Be as detailed as possible but please leave names, locations, and agencies out of the story or just change them.  Let's talk about these situations out in the open so we can ALL learn from what others have already done or been through.  Keep it classy ;-)
