Medicine is full of self proclaimed "subject matter experts" (SMEs) and not all can be trusted. There are numerous fallacies. Some are obvious. Some are down right dangerous. shared one of these examples of improper TQ information still being published and open to the public. Here is a list of various dogma and false information that I have come across... or been told...or culturally embedded.

MISINFORMATION EXAMPLES
1. Tampons are good for packing wounds and should be in trauma kits
2. Normal saline is appropriate for trauma resuscitation
3. ATLS for years taught 2L NS bolus up front for trauma
4. Can't place tourniquets on "both/two- bone" compartments
5. Safe to place x2 TQ with gaps/space if placing more than 1 on the same extremity
6. High and tight TQ for all situations
7. Ketamine is a good option for every resusc situation
8. Large bore periph IV are not adequate resusc lines
9. 2nd ICS midclavicular needle decompression is the best location
10. Traumatic amputation dont need TQ "arteries spasm and retract" stopping hemorrhaging risk
11. Parkland is the best formula for burns fluid resusc
12. Not understanding blood is still primary resuc fluid in burns with trauma
13. "B52" is a "great" sedation option
14. Vasoactive meds can never be given peripherally
15. Trauma arrests can not be run with only SGA in place
16. TXA is only given if hypotensive and never to kids
17. Commercial snake bite kits are safe
18. TQ venomous snake bites
19. You cant pack penetrating neck bleeds
20. Normal BP is the target goal for hemorrhage resusc

Please BE CAUTIOUS where you get your medical information. Please check sources and make sure its evidence based medicine . Many on social media make terrible claims about their training the medicine they present and even sell in private companies and training events.

What falsehood have you been told or read?
