The first prehospital trauma course developed, Basic Trauma Life Support was introduced in August of 1982. Nevada’s first course was offered in March of 1990. ITLS began as a local project of the Alabama Chapter of the American College of Emergency Physicians. ITLS has become internationally accepted as the training course for prehospital trauma care. The original ITLS course was modeled after the Advanced Trauma Life Support course (for physicians) so that the surgeon, emergency physician, trauma nurse, and EMT would think and act along similar lines. The courses differs in many respects because the prehospital situation differs markedly from the hospital.

This course is designed for the advanced EMT, paramedic, and trauma nurse who must initially evaluate and stabilize the trauma patient. Since this is a critical time in the management of these patients, this course is intended to teach the skills necessary for rapid assessments, resuscitation, packaging, and transport. It also stresses those conditions which cannot be stabilized in the field and thus require immediate transport.

ITLS ACCESS Emergency services personnel have all felt the frustration of losing patients because they could not gain access to them, in a safe and expedient manner. The ability to treat them was hampered because of their entrapment in a vehicle. How to stabilize the scene, gain access and even how to disentangle the patient have not routinely been taught to most of us. The purpose of this course is to provide EMS crews with the training to utilize tools commonly carried on an ambulance or first responder unit to reach entrapped victims and begin stabilization and extrication, while awaiting the arrival of rescue units. This allows us to "give back" some of the Golden Hour to the person who needs it most, the patient. This is an eight (8) hour class divided between the class room and the junk yard. A true hands on experience utilizing only simple hand tools and a reciprocating saw.

Prerequisites: None
