Advanced Life Support

December 8th, 2009 | by admin |

It has been reported that a mystery women has been seen being carried out from Tiger Woods’ home on a stretcher and rushed to hospital on advanced life support.

“what is advanced life support?” The Farlex online medical dictionary defines advanced life support as “a higher level of emergency medical care, usually provided by EMT-intermediates or paramedics.” The dictionary outlines that typically advanced life support involves invasive techniques extending beyond basic CPR.

Advanced life support can include: tracheal intubation, IV access, diagnostic tests such as EKG and even basic life support.

However, the advanced life support term could be misleading. The State of Florida Department of Health Bureau of Emergency Medical Services refers to paramedic programs as “Advanced Life Support EMS Providers” on the Emergency Medical Services Training Program application.

The Health Central Hospital is the same hospital Woods was taken after crashing his car. Woods has been in the non-stop since as more women step forward confessing their alleged affairs with the golf champion.
