In this episode of RoyOnRescue, Roy received a question from an EMT student who was trying to learn more about traumatic asphyxiation. The EMT student wanted more information about this traumatic injury. Many times these injuries happen as a result of a very heavy object dropping onto a persons chest and trapping the person under it’s weight. It’s important to recognize the emergency and take action right away. You won’t want to miss this episode of RoyOnRescue.
