Even though it does require the use of one medical personnel, this device is quick and efficient and can potentially save the life of a critically ill patient. ]]> 2018-07-25 04:59:01 UTC https://padlet.com/acrow3/23dq8ui9usfn/wish/271062451 Summary acrow3 https://padlet.com/acrow3/23dq8ui9usfn/wish/271063197 LifeFlow is an FDA approved device that helps “improve resuscitation through early and controlled fluid delivery" (How It Works).
