  This is good for rafters but kayakers will have their paddle so they need to use it instead of open hands.

  excellent teaching video. Do you also recommend the barrel roll when trying to get into an eddy from the main flow? Thank you v much.

  You should not put the persons arms to her/his chest because the body decides to not support those with energy anymore in order to save more important things as your vital organs. If you dont seperate your arms from your upper body it could damage vital organs. Isolate the arms with for example a blanket from your upper body. No hate, but if you make a video about something so serious make it right!

  Hi @jonaindaforest , thanks for your comment. Here are a couple of things to note: 1) I can understand your line of thinking, but we provide training based on best practices and the curriculum of Wilderness Medical Associates International and we’ve never heard that. Where does this come from? Can you point to any research that backs up what you’re saying? 2) Pretty much any patient who is outside and can’t move around on their own should be put in some variation of a ‘hypo wrap’ (in anything but the hottest of conditions), so it’s not necessarily for a severely hypothermic patient. For an awake patient, having their arms on their chest is often most comfortable as it allows them to use their hands for various tasks (scratch their own nose, swat flies, etc.)

  @gary62127 ай бұрын

  So how do you get someone in this condition back to civilization? Let's assume is it summer time, thick forest with dense canopy, no cell coverage, 4+ hour hike out under normal conditions?

• 
  @borealriver5 ай бұрын

  It’s hard, that’s why you should never hike! Always go by river :) But seriously, thanks for your question and here are a few thoughts: - This splint would be appropriate for someone with an unstable lower leg injury. It does a good job of immobilizing both the ankle and the knee, but as such, it’s pretty big and so it’s not the type of thing somebody can hop out with: they’ll need to be carried, transported in a vehicle or aircraft, floated in a boat, pulled on a sled, etc. - Even though this is a painful injury that will require medical attention and significant follow up, it’s usually not a medical emergency, but rather, it’s a logistical dilemma. We would only consider a lower leg injury to be a time-sensitive emergency if there was impaired circulation to the foot, if the bone was sticking out (open fracture), if there were signs of compartment syndrome, if there were other injuries going along with this that were affecting the person’s critical systems (circulatory, respiratory, or nervous), or if the environmental challenges could not be mitigated. So you would need to check circulation in the foot and all of the above, but again, often, these issues wouldn’t be present. In such a case (non-emergent evacuation), you still might need to get help in order to transport the person out, but this could take the form of calling friends, an outfitter, a transport service that you hire privately, and doing a slow and controlled evacuation while minimizing risk and making sure not to domino into other problems. If it was a medical emergency (impaired circulation to the foot, open fracture, etc.), then you would want to get the person to definitive medical care as quickly as possible, while of course still keeping in mind your safety and that of the rest of the group. This would usually involve contacting emergency services and/or if you have the ability and resources, carrying the person out on an emergent basis. Ultimately, there is no one right answer, but you would need to weigh the risks vs. the benefits of all of your options and then decide what to do for yourself. But you will for sure be able to make the best decision if you take the time to do a thorough assessment of the leg injury, the patient overall (looking for other injuries), available resources, and the environment and terrain. Also note, if this was a commercial trip (like a guided expedition) or field work for a job or research, the ‘industry standard’ in much of the world would be to carry two communication devices (sat phone, satellite messenger, emergency beacon, etc.) so that you can call out for support, even if no cell coverage. Also good to note: many of the newest cell phones have satellite SOS functionality and it seems like in the relatively near future, many cell phones will also have satellite messaging capabilities. Hope this helps and makes sense!

• 
  @borealriver9 ай бұрын

  You could grab the strap above the knife, Or just slide your hand under the knife/strap and pull from there (Avoid grabbing only the knife so you wouldn't break it off the jacket) The knife is protected by a plastic sheath so it wouldn't cut the rescuer in this process!

  If this was real, the rescue girl did a great job.. If this was a practice rescue, this is great for the reason that practice makes perfect and you never know when you might need to rescue someone. This also brings up the point of rescuing someone. I know people that I have posed this question to and their reply was as follows: “ I would not try and rescue anybody because I do not want to get involved.” 😢😮

  Hi there! Thanks for your question. No: not necessarily. Often you don’t tie yourself off, but it can be a good option if you’re anticipating a lot of force and you don’t want to be accidentally pulled in, especially if you’re high up or have unstable footing.

  What a great video. I've always wondered what getting surfed looked like first-person and it definitely is hair raising. If Alex had lowered his upstream edge to windowshade, would that have helped release him (hitting that faster, deeper current)?

•

  Definitely an option but you could also just end up surfing upside down for a while…with friends nearby this rescue allowed him to keep his head up.
