Consider this. You need to establish IV access in a patient but have had no luck starting a line. A research team from SAN ANTONIO FIRE DEPARTMENT and HIS Centre published a paper on "Graduated Access for Hypotensive Patients (GAHP)." It's the use of an IO to obtain IV access. Before you get upset, watch the NAEMSP Florida Chapter webinar on the topic with first author Mathew Saab, MD, hosted by Tanner Smida and Peter Antevy MD.
