Paramedics are able to provide the most extensive pre-hospital care. They have access to more advanced equipment and can administer drugs orally and intravenously. Other responsibilities include interpreting electrocardiograms (ECGs), which records the electrical activity of your heart at rest, performing endotracheal intubations to help a patient breathe and using monitors and other complex equipment.

Prehospital medical course covers the most difficult medical problems beyond basic life support, especially for the treatment of intubation, pneumothorax, internal bleeding and massive bleeding in patients with upper respiratory tract swelling. It's a great course for rescuers.
