It’s getting colder. But I doubt I’ll be as cold as the time I had to jump into this during pre-hospital subarctic training at the Swedish Subarctic Warfare Centre. Drug management and medical equipment management is very different at -20 Centigrade! 🥶🥶🥶

TXA administration for trauma casualties. Give 1 gram of TXA over 10 minutes IV/IO (For IM administer the dose over 2 sites 0.5mg per site). For best results, administer TXA within 3 hours of the injury but best practice is to administer as soon as practically possible.

Trauma Cocktail For a trauma casualty, particularly one that needs to be transported, it’s best practice to administer a ‘Trauma Cocktail’. Drugs differ between nations but a common cocktail in UK SOF is 1 gram TXA, 2 gram Ceftriaxone and 4mg Ondansetron administered IV or IO.

On behalf of Peregrine Medical, congratulations to @ictfc A true sporting fairytail. The governing body deducted 15 points from them, they had a terrible poor track record head coach, but the new coach took charge, and saved the club!
