[@carlosmelara9220]

Felt overwhelmed when I took the EMT course and referred to your videos and now in AEMT school feeling overwhelmed and referring back to your videos definitely helps bring back the confidence. Thanks a lot for these videos!

[@fluffystagbeetle4526]

I feel you. I am doing EMT stuff now i took an accelerated class and barely passed but failed NREMT twice studying using his videos has helped stuff connect that didnt connect at all before its mind blowing.

[@roberthitt8045]

Awesome videos ! They are clear, concise and detailed. I work for a hospital based EMS and these videos help tremendously. As a US Army combat medic veteran, these videos reminds me of some skills we were taught. Thanks so much, Evan !

[@TheParamedicCoach]

Thanks for the kind words, Robert!

[@jamieh8101]

Evan, it’s incredible that no matter what question I have about EMT/AEMT, I can find the answer in your videos. You continue to be ON POINT and I can’t thank you enough! 🙌🏻 💯

[@TheParamedicCoach]

Thank you Jamie, that's why I'm here! Appreciate your words here

[@TheParamedicCoach]

How to start an IV is one of the biggest questions I get as a Paramedic Coach. In today's video, I will take you from "rookie" to expert in one video on IV Access, you'll be more than prepared to help out a partner in need or prep to Paramedic School. Say hi when you come on, and ask any questions in the comments section!

[@kellenkye554]

I guess I'm pretty off topic but does anyone know a good website to stream newly released movies online ?

[@lionelzaid3946]

@Kellen Kye try flixzone. Just search on google for it =)

[@darianjudah4380]

@Kellen Kye lately I have been using Flixzone. You can find it on google :)

#IV Hi Evan! I’m about to start EMT school on June 1st! I couldn’t be happier to have come across your videos to help me prepare for school. I have a one track mind of graduating the top of my class and with your videos that’s a possibility so thank you.

[@ariannaaguilar1860]

This is my first time watching your video. I would like for info on your course plz

[@TheParamedicCoach]

Hey Arianna, here is the link to my course: www.prepareforems.com/blueprint

[@edify855]

Hey, hey! Can you go from the drip set to the catheter if all the meds you need are put into the bag and do not need to be added to the line? I am doing at home IV therapy - so not EMT - therefore I already know the meds needed.

[@TheParamedicCoach]

Technically, you can do it. But if you have a lock available I would always recommend that, but yes it is possible to connect the two, just not the most recommended method.

[@onlydans8849]

#IV I passed class for nremt and have been using the paramedic coach to to keep at it til I can finally test after this shut down.

[@whalefuhk]

My nursing instructor Ms Candler always told us the “Gauge Cheer” , blue 22, green 18, pink 20, yellow “rubber duckie” which means it’s usually used on children. We had a few paramedics in our classes and they’d always crack up. 😂

[@craiglindley3974]

Hello Evan. Your the best.

[@TheParamedicCoach]

You rock!

[@colindriscoll9352]

#IV 12 yr EMT finished med a year 1 1/2 ago still have to do NREMT Cognitive

[@jorgealmazan8603]

#IV Greatt videos rewatch them over and over until it gets stuck in my head

[@TheParamedicCoach]

Exactly!

[@valentinmihai6557]

ThankYouForTheVideo!PleaseKeepPosting!

[@jimbobcramden]

So the smaller the number the bigger the needle?

[@TheParamedicCoach]

The smaller the IV number the larger the catheter that's correct. For example, a #16 IV is larger than a #22 iv

[@carbapalma5343]

#IV. Just starting my journey into the medic field

[@wildmodsedits4962]

[@chantellefoxcroft5558]

After my brother i have always wanted to become a EMT

[@Harlem55]

To explain a bit of background information he didn't cover at around 2:05 - we can also measure the bore by what is called "French". 1 French is the next larger size from 0-Gauge. As French numbers increase, the size of a bore increases such as that 23G is smaller than 0G which is smaller than 10 Fr. which is smaller than 14 Fr. etc. As a frame of reference 14 Fr. is the typical size of a foley catheter used in the adult population (though sizes as large as 18 Fr. may be used under unique surgical circumstances where surgical drainage or blood drainage are implicated.) also at around 3:35 this is true that we have flexible IV catheters post 1980s or so, but in the 1960s and 1970s, the catheter material that was left in situ was, in fact, fragile and could break. This required immobilization of the IV site to prevent any bending or torque pressure at all from being applied to the catheter in situ, as historically, breaking an IV catheter was a somewhat common surgical nightmare.

[@keeleyhank6812]

That is just going to confuse the new guys. His explanation is so much easier.

[@ausnjes8835]

Smallest is 26G cannula
