pre-hospital C-section

[Bren]

	Refer to the AHA Guidelines 2005 Document as well as ERC ILCOR documents for new guidelines 2005, there is evidence out there! it's quite a touchy subject. Something we've been going on about here for a while!

A couple of EMS people did this in NJ, think. They were suspended and after months and much uproar they may have gotten their jobs back. I have never heard of any protocol for this. Maybe somebody in NJ knows more details.

Is there any reading out there about the pre-hospital c-section on a pregnant female that has injuries incompatable with life? ie decapitation, major trauma ect..has anyone on this list ever run into a situation like that or similar. i do this is far fetched, but it must have happened somewhere?
