In North America North America, third largest continent (1990 est. pop. 365,000,000), c.9,400,000 sq mi (24,346,000 sq km), the northern of the two continents of the Western Hemisphere. alone other studies conclude that over 2,000,000 attempts at I.V. fail in a pre-hospital environment. Additional results show flow rates for gravity drip at 80 ml/min, flow rates for pressurized pres·sur·ize tr.v. pres·sur·ized, pres·sur·iz·ing, pres·sur·iz·es 1.

Both unconscious and conscious patients can be treated with no / minimal pain utilizing a lidocaine lidocaine /li·do·caine/ (li´do-kan) an anesthetic with sedative, analgesic, and cardiac depressant properties, applied topically in the form of the base or hydrochloride salt as a local anesthetic; also used in the latter form as a protocol. In-patients with follow up, no complications or complaints reported at two months. The success rate for experienced users (users with one previous use) was 95 percent. The overall success rate was 84 percent inclusive of inclusive of prep. Taking into consideration or account; including. first time users. The median times to achieve vascular access in both experienced and first time users were 60 seconds, providing a very rapid, safe, and effective method for gaining vascular access. This study is the first to be presented to the Society for Academic Emergency Medicine (S.A.E.M.) and draws attention to the capabilities of the F.A.S.T 1 System in Emergency Medicine. The S.A.E.M Annual meeting is the premier meeting for academic emergency medicine and will draw a worldwide audience and excellent exposure for the F.A.S.T 1 System.
