Dr. Jeff Jarvis, the EMS Medical Director for Williamson County EMS and Marble Falls Area EMS in Central Texas, teaches us about cardiac arrest for every physician, from pathologists to podiatrists.  We learn how to identify and manage a cardiac arrest if we happen to be the medical professional on the scene.  We cover multiple circumstances from the woods to the mall to a plane.  After this talk, you will feel better equipped to know what you can and can’t, should and shouldn’t do in those situations.

Dr. Jarvis maintains his clinical practice at Baylor Scott & White Hospital in Round Rock, Texas. He is board certified in both Emergency Medicine and Emergency Medical Services. He began his career in EMS over 30 years ago, has worked in three states as a paramedic, and retains his active paramedic license today. He teaches extensively and has authored multiple articles on EMS issues in both peer-reviewed and industry journals. His research interests include airway management and clinical performance measures. He discusses EMS research on his podcast “EMS Lighthouse Project Podcast”.
