Air Methods Prehospital EDucation Podcast Ep. 59: Scales of Uncertainty
Dec 18, 2025
On this show we have espoused the general guiding
principal of "when you hear hoofbeats, think horses, not zebras."
Sometimes the hoofbeats actually are those of zebras. But what if
sometimes there not even zebras, they're unicorns? On this episode
of AMPED, our patient has been bitten by a Jameson's Mamba, one of
the deadliest snakes in the world. Thankfully, he is an expert
herpetologist who is able to talk our team through the steps needed
to save his life. But what our team learns is that sometimes that
which seems extremely rare results in care that isn't rare at
all.
