Neurological Emergencies
In this episode of EMTprep Pulse Check, we examine the recognition and management of neurological emergencies, a vital topic for both the NREMT exam and real-world field care. Listeners will learn how to assess altered mental status, identify strokes and seizures, and differentiate between common neurological conditions.
The discussion covers early recognition of stroke symptoms using the Cincinnati Prehospital Stroke Scale, management priorities for seizure patients, and the importance of airway and oxygen considerations during neurological events. Real-world examples help translate assessment findings into effective prehospital interventions.
What You’ll Learn:
How to assess patients with altered mental status or neurological deficits
Key indicators of stroke, seizure, and transient ischemic attack (TIA)
How to use stroke scales and focused neurological exams in the field
Treatment priorities for maintaining airway and perfusion in neurological patients
Communication strategies for effective handoffs to advanced care
Key Takeaways:
Rapid recognition and response to neurological symptoms can save lives
Consistent use of stroke scales improves accuracy and early activation of stroke alerts
Managing airway and perfusion are top priorities during neurological emergencies

Musculoskeletal Injuries
In this episode of EMTprep Pulse Check, we focus on the recognition and management of musculoskeletal injuries, which are among the most common trauma-related calls in EMS. Listeners will learn how to identify fractures, dislocations, sprains, and strains, as well as how to properly splint and immobilize affected areas to prevent further harm.
The discussion highlights assessment strategies, mechanisms of injury, and red flags that indicate more serious complications such as neurovascular compromise or compartment syndrome. Practical insights connect field skills with exam-relevant knowledge so EMTs can approach musculoskeletal trauma with confidence.
What You’ll Learn:
The differences between fractures, dislocations, sprains, and strains
Proper techniques for splinting and immobilization
Key assessment findings that indicate serious underlying complications
How to use the mechanism of injury to anticipate musculoskeletal damage
The role of musculoskeletal care in the overall trauma assessment
Key Takeaways:
Musculoskeletal injuries are common but can conceal serious complications if not assessed thoroughly
Correct splinting and immobilization protect the patient and improve outcomes
Recognizing red flags such as compromised circulation or sensation ensures timely transport and treatment
