Safe Transportation of Kids: Learn how to securely transport children of all sizes using a variety of pediatric restraint devices. Intraosseous (IO) Needle Placement: Refine the technique of IO insertion and practice methods for maintaining device stability in the field. Spinal Motion Restriction in Children: Review indications for spinal and cervical motion restriction, explore equipment options, and practice skills for safe and effective immobilization.
