Texas Legal Considerations for EMS

Transporting a Minor Without the
Parent Present

Navigating the complexities of emergency medical services (EMS) often involves critical decisions under
pressure, and these decisions become particularly nuanced when the patient is a minor and a parent
or legal guardian is not immediately present. This overview delves into the crucial legal considerations
surrounding the EMS transport of a minor without parental consent, focusing on the foundational
doctrine of implied consent and its practical application in two distinct scenarios.
Understanding the legal framework, potential risks, and best practices outlined herein is paramount for
EMS professionals to ensure both the well-being of the child and the legal defensibility of their actions
in these challenging situations.

Implied Consent – Foundational Doctrine
Applies when a minor requires urgent medical care and
• The parent/guardian is unavailable, or
• The parent refuses consent, but the situation poses an imminent threat to life or serious harm.
Based on the principle that a reasonable parent would consent to emergency care if present.

Scenario A: Parent is Present and Refuses Consent

Legal Risks
• Parents have a constitutional right to make medical decisions for their children.
• Transporting a child against a capable parent’s wishes may raise legal issues such as:
o Medical battery,
o Unlawful detention, and or
o Custodial interference or kidnapping, if done without clear authority.

When EMS May Override Refusal
• The child’s condition is life-threatening or limb-threatening, and delay would cause harm.
• The parent is incapacitated, intoxicated, abusive, or otherwise unfit to make a safe decision.
• EMS has consulted with:
o Online medical control (hospital physician supports transport), and/or
o Law enforcement, who may place the child in protective custody.

Best Practices
• Document all details, including:
o Parental statements,
o Clinical condition, and
o Consultations with medical control or law enforcement.
• Involve law enforcement to assume custody if appropriate.
• Report suspected neglect or abuse to CPS.

Scenario B: Parent is Not Present / Cannot Be Located

Legal Standing
• Implied consent applies strongly—EMS may render care and transport based on:
o Child’s medical need.
o Inability to contact a guardian in a reasonable time.
• Courts generally uphold EMS actions taken in good faith during emergencies.

Best Practices
• Attempt to contact a parent/guardian and document all efforts.
• Determine if any adult on scene has legal authority to consent (e.g., guardian, foster parent).
• Involve law enforcement if:
o The child appears to be abandoned or neglected.
o There are custody questions or other concerns.

Summary
Transport without the parent is legally justified under implied consent in true emergencies or when the parent is unavailable. If a parent refuses, EMS must determine if the child’s condition justifies overriding refusal—and should involve medical control or law enforcement to avoid liability. In all cases, thorough documentation and adherence to local protocols are critical for legal protection.

​Haiti’s government announced Monday that it approved what it called a “war budget” of $275,000 aimed at alleviating the country’s crisis as gang violence surges.

Nearly 40% of the money will go toward Haiti’s police and military “to fight the armed groups that threaten national stability,” while nearly 20% will go to fortify the border the country shares with the Dominican Republic, Haiti’s transitional presidential council said in a statement.Another 16% will go to social programs, including those focused on education, health and humanitarian assistance. The council said the special budget reflects the state’s commitment to act decisively and target the growing insecurity.

The additional money, however, is not expected to alleviate the lack of resources hitting a U.N.-backed mission, led by Kenyan police, which is struggling to help local authorities quell gang violence.

Gangs that control at least 85% of the capital, Port-au-Prince, continue to attack communities surrounding it.

Recently, a powerful gang coalition known as Viv Ansanm took control of the towns of Mirebalais and Saut’d’Eau in Haiti’s central region, according to the National Human Rights Defense Network, a local group. Police officers at the Mirebalais police station and local prison fled during the attacks, it said.“Armed gangs then set fire to the police station and took control of the prison, orchestrating a mass escape of the inmates,” the organization said, noting that the prison held 533 inmates.

Staff and patients at the Mirebalais University Hospital also were evacuated.

At least 60 people died following the attacks launched on March 30 and 31, including gang members and escaped inmates, according to the human rights group.

Meanwhile, the neighboring town of Saut-d’Eau fell to gangs on the afternoon of April 3, activists said.

“Some say this was facilitated by the redeployment of law enforcement to Mirebalais, leaving Saut-d’Eau vulnerable,” the group said last week.

Two nuns and one police officer were among those killed during the attacks, while two journalists remain missing.

“By ignoring the (central region's) collapse the transitional authorities show they have no real plan to restore citizens’ rights and public safety,” the human rights group said. “The absence of state response has turned the police into firefighters — constantly reacting without strategic direction — while towns fall one after another.”

The group noted that civilians and self-defense groups in both towns “had repeatedly raised alarms that were ignored.”

Meanwhile, more than 260 people were killed in another gang attack on two communities in Haiti’s capital in late January, according to the U.N. political mission in Haiti that questioned the delay in response by authorities.

The attacks occurred in Kenscoff and parts of Carrefour. Another community in Kenscoff was attacked over the weekend, with at least one police officer missing and several others injured, according to SPNH-17, a police union.

Overall, from Jan. 1 to March 27, more than 1,500 people have been reported killed across Haiti, and 572 others injured, the U.N. mission said. Gang violence has also left more than 1 million people homeless in recent years, according to the U.N.

We left the video of the Kenyan KIA out and waited for the data from Jan-Mar to be released. With everything being said in the above released the some wealthy and politicians in Haiti have been controlling a lot of the gang activity. The elders appear to the particularly targeted by the gangs as they are pushed from area to area.

Hemothorax occurs when blood accumulates in the pleural space, the area between the lungs and chest wall. Thos is generally caused by blunt force trauma, over pressure, or puncture that causes vascular damage. Symptoms can vary depending on the severity of the bleeding, but may include: 

• Shortness of breath: This is the most common symptom, as the blood accumulation reduces lung capacity. When you listen for breath sounds you may find them diminished on the affected side or even absent. 

• Chest pain: Pain may be sharp, stabbing, or dull, and can worsen with breathing. 


• Cough: A cough may produce bloody or frothy sputum. 


• Dyspnea on exertion: Difficulty breathing. This is due to the lung space that is normally taken up by air is now getting replaced with blood. The lung can't expand properly and have less volume. Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide exchange is not happening as it should. Can't oxygenate, can't ventilate causing the Hypercarbia and Hypoxia.


• Rapid heart rate and breathing: The body tries to compensate for the reduced oxygen levels. The heart has to beat faster to make up for the lack of volume. The heart is preload dependent and if the pressure builds up in the chest it will push on the Vena Cava choking off the blood return to the heart. If the heart can't get the blood in to fill it then it will not pump it out. This leaves your patient hemodynamically unstable. The blood filling lung becomes take the place of the air and the lung can't expand. As pressure builds you will lose your ability to oxygenate and ventilate your patient. The pressure on the Vena Cava will build and late signs are JVD and Tracheal Deviation. 


• Low blood pressure: Blood loss can lead to hypotension. As you lose blood from the vascular system the heart also has to speed up to compensate for the volume loss. 


• Pale, cool, and clammy skin: This indicates poor circulation. The body is shunting the blood to the vital organs and your patient is showing signs of shock. Shock is inadequate tissue perfusion at the cellular level. 


• Confusion or anxiety: In severe cases, blood loss can affect brain function. Your patient is not perfusing the brain, and your patient is in shock. The hearts inability to properly pump due to the lose of preload and vascular volume will affect the blood pressure. Now add the hypoxia and hypercarbia to the mix and you have H Bombs killing your patient. Hypotension, Hypercarbia, Hypoxia are just a few of the many you need be aware and know how to treat. 

• Fever: If the blood becomes infected. 

Other Symptoms: 

nausea, vomiting, and fatigue

www.911tacmed.com 

Hemothorax, a condition where blood accumulates in the pleural space between the lungs and chest wall, requires prompt medical attention. Treatment aims to stop bleeding, remove accumulated blood, and restore lung function. 

Initial Management:
Stabilize vital signs, Administer oxygen and monitor oxygen saturation, Perform chest X-ray or ultrasound to confirm diagnosis, and Control bleeding with chest tube placement. 

Blood Removal: 

• Thoracentesis (needle aspiration): Used for small amounts of blood 
• Finger Thoracostomy: an emergency procedure that can be used to treat hemothorax and tension pneumothorax
  

• Chest tube insertion: For larger volumes of blood 
• Surgical intervention: May be necessary if bleeding is uncontrolled or a chest tube is ineffective 

Other Interventions: 

• Blood transfusions: To replace lost blood

• Antibiotics: If infection is suspected

• Pain management: To alleviate discomfort

• Observation: Monitor for complications such as infection, pneumonia, and lung collapse 

Follow-Up Care: 

• Regular chest X-rays to monitor blood drainage

• Removal of the chest tube when drainage ceases

• Observation for signs of infection or other complications

• Pulmonary rehabilitation: To restore lung function 

Specific Treatment Options: 

• Video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS): A minimally invasive surgical procedure to remove blood clots and repair bleeding vessels. 
• Thoracotomy: An open chest surgery to access the pleural space directly and stop bleeding. 
• Intrapleural fibrinolytic therapy (IPFT): A medication injected into the pleural space to dissolve blood clots. 

It's important to note that the specific treatment plan for hemothorax will vary depending on the severity of the condition, the underlying cause, and the patient's overall health. Consult with a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and treatment recommendations.

Tranexamic acid (TXA) is an antifibrinolytic drug that can be used to reduce bleeding and the risk of death in trauma patients: 

• How it works
  TXA reduces blood loss by preventing the breakdown of fibrin, which helps stabilize blood as it clots.

• When to use it
  TXA is most effective when given within the first hour after injury but should be given within 3 hours. If given after 3 hours, there is a higher risk of death from bleeding. 


• Who to use it for
  TXA should be given to all trauma patients who are at risk of bleeding-related death, including those who need a blood transfusion. It's safe to administer to a wide range of patients and shouldn't be restricted to the most severely injured. 


• How to administer it
  A typical dose is 2g of TXA given slow bolus, 


• Benefits
  TXA has been shown to reduce mortality in trauma patients and can also reduce the need for blood transfusions. 


• Safety
  TXA is generally considered safe, with no serious side effects. 




• Pre-hospital administration of TXA is becoming more common and can be given by trained emergency personnel prehospital.

When evaluating a burn patient in the ER, common laboratory tests include a
complete blood count (CBC), electrolytes, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine, glucose, coagulation profile (PT/PTT), arterial blood gas (ABG), and sometimes a carboxyhemoglobin level to assess for smoke inhalation,
all aimed at monitoring fluid balance, electrolyte abnormalities, kidney function, and potential complications related to the burn severity. 
​
Key points about burn patient lab tests

• CBC:
  Checks for anemia or infection by evaluating red and white blood cell counts. 

• Electrolytes:
  Monitors sodium, potassium, and other electrolytes which can be significantly altered due to fluid shifts caused by burns. 
• BUN and Creatinine:
  Assesses kidney function, important for monitoring fluid resuscitation in severe burns. 
• Coagulation profile:
  Checks for potential bleeding issues like disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) which can occur in severe burns. 
• ABG:
  Measures blood oxygen and carbon dioxide levels, especially crucial for patients with smoke inhalation injuries. 
• Carboxyhemoglobin level:
  Specifically detects carbon monoxide poisoning from smoke inhalation. 

          Factors influencing specific lab tests:

• Burn severity:
  More extensive burns may require more frequent and comprehensive lab monitoring. 

• Type of burn:
  Chemical burns might require additional tests to assess specific toxins involved. 
• Patient's medical history:
  Existing conditions like diabetes or heart disease could necessitate additional lab monitoring.

TCCC with ballistic wound packing lab, lung and airway lab

The Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) course introduces evidence-based, life-saving techniques and strategies for providing the best trauma care on the battlefield. NAEMT conducts TCCC courses under the auspices of its PHTLS program, the recognized world leader in prehospital trauma education.

NAEMT’s TCCC courses use the PHTLS Military textbook and are fully compliant with the Department of Defense’s Committee on Tactical Combat Casualty Care (CoTCCC) guidelines. It is the only TCCC course endorsed by the American College of Surgeons.

The TCCC-MP (TCCC for Medical Personnel) course is designed for combat EMS/military personnel, including medics, corpsmen, and pararescue personnel deploying in support of combat operations.

NAEMT’s TCCC course is accredited by the Continuing Education Coordinating Board for Emergency Medical Services (CECBEMS) and recognized by the National Registry of EMTs (NREMT).

Almost 90% of American service men and women who die from combat wounds do so before they arrive at a medical treatment facility. This figure highlights the importance of the trauma care provided on the battlefield by combat medics, corpsmen, PJs, and even the casualties themselves and their fellow combatants. With respect to the actual care provided by combat medics on the battlefield, however, J. S Maughon noted in his paper in Military Medicine in 1970 that little had changed in the preceding 100 years. In the interval between the publication of Maughon's paper and the United States’ invasion of Afghanistan in 2001, there was also little progress made. The war years, though, have seen many lifesaving advances in battlefield trauma care pioneered by the Joint Trauma System and the Committee on Tactical Combat Casualty Care. These advances have dramatically increased casualty survival. This is especially true when all members of combat units – not just medics - are trained in Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC.)

Injuries and Back Pain
 
Injuries can cause back torment, including injuries to the upper appendages, shoulders, neck, spine, and so forth Injuries can happen likewise cause back torment if the rotator sleeves are upset. The rotator sleeves contain acromion, ligaments, for example, the rotator sleeves, which rest at the upper bones at the arm, and associate with rotator sleeve muscles. The muscles are at the highest point of the upper arm bones, and beneath the shoulder joints. Rotator sleeves are bunches of more modest muscles, ligaments, and so on, and join to different pieces of the body. On the off chance that the ligaments are torn or potentially burst it can cause back torment. The injuries as a rule happen when unexpected effects or powers focus on the district. Applying the muscles can likewise cause injury. On the off chance that the ligaments are harmed, it causes aggravation and expansion, which makes a large amount of pain.
 
Such issues are treated with rest, ice packs, pressure, and elevation. Shoulder injuries are seen when the arm is tossed out of attachment. The injuries happen from falls, overexerting muscles, and so forth. The specialist considers such injuries carefully since breaks might emerge, which begin inside the humerus. In certain occurrences, medical procedure is mandatory to address the issue.
 
Additional injuries incorporate circular segment pain, shoulder freeze, tendonitis, subacromial bursa, acromio-clavicular, etc. The Bursa is a sac loaded up with liquids that fill in as cushioning to diminish friction. The reason for the bursa is to make development simple and to deflect scouring of the joints. The bursa can cause issues when the shoulders are out of nowhere thrown over the head. Treatment for subacromial bursa conditions, incorporate steroid regimens, exercise-based recuperation, prescriptions, and so forth, particularly when aggravations set in. The condition can cause back pain since the bursa is an aide to the joints, ligaments, bones, and synovium. Bursa works by making light of the dangers of joint harm. On the off chance that bursa kindles it packs the nerves or ligaments. What occurs after is a disappointment, particularly once the joints rub. The delicate pockets amid the bones that cover and ensure different bones can cause genuine back torment since aggravation has set in from bursa problems. The strain caused by aggravation hits the muscles, overexerting these muscles, which the tangible nerves are dialed back and development is restricted.
 
Stance is the posture we get from bearing muscles and joints. If an individual slouches, regularly it can cause back pain, since the muscles and joints are not moving, as they ought to. Active recuperation and medications are frequently utilized to address the issue. Sitting at long spans can likewise cause back issues, particularly if the lower back isn't upheld. Indeed, sitting erroneously can twist the spine at the lower back and cause genuine agony. Back torment in this nature might show up from sport exercises also, for example, truly difficult work, continued curving, etc. Slouches can address back issues by figuring out how to sit and remain in legitimate positions. The back when harmed from slumping influences the lumbar. Furthermore, the slouchier should learn the right methods of lifting.
 
Back pain can show up from the slipped circle, sciatica, Sacro-iliac, and so forth Slip circles are a Herniated core pulposa (HNP) jumble. Slip circles are bursting of the "intervertebral plate." The intervertebral circle sits amid the Spinal Columns and is close to the spine.
 
Profoundly, lastly at the disk. At the point when the nerve roots are compelled, the disk can slip, causing herniated core pulposa. Sciatica is a kind of slipped disk, since the aggravation sends sharp, electrical shock-like agony down the waterway of the spine, sending an upsetting hurt that begins in the back. The aggravation conveys onto the legs. The aggravation is now and again discontinuous, yet on different occasions, it can prompt ongoing torment condition. Surgeries are frequently needed to address the issue.
