AB Emergency  medical  services  primarily  came  into  formal  existence  in  the  United  States  to  serve  one  very  important  need:  to  provide  field  resuscitation  to  patients  with  severe  cardiopulmonary  conditions  and  major  trauma.  EMS  physicians  should  be  expert  resuscitators  evidenced  by  their  mastery  of  all  the  techniques  needed  to  provide  the  highest  level  of  care.  This  is  also  the  skill  set  needed  to  train  and  educate  the  EMS  providers  with  which  they  work  due  to  the  obvious  value  of  this  basic  prehospital  intervention.1,2
