“North American Rescue is dedicated to providing high-quality products that help to support first responders in the various situations EMS professionals may face,” said David Davis, Executive Director of Public Safety Sales at NAR. “Our roots run deep in the world of tactical medicine and rescue, so we understand the importance of having solutions first responders can rely on. We look forward to demonstrating our latest solutions for the industry this year at the EMS & FIRE PRO Expo.”

Products demonstrated in NAR’s booth include the following key features:

• A 2023 EMS World Innovation Awards Winner, the Enhanced ARS is a needle designed to help improve the safety, efficacy, and speed of needle chest decompression for the treatment of tension pneumothorax. The Enhanced ARS features a sharpened needle tip designed to facilitate precise insertion, three fenestrations in the catheter aimed at enhancing air pressure release, and centimeter markings intended to assist with accurate insertion depth control to help reduce the risk of occlusion.
• The NAR Responder Ballistic PPE Vest provides advanced ballistic protection for Fire and EMS personnel. The shape and profile of the vest helps to maximize ballistic protection while allowing for the unique physical movements necessary by firefighters and EMS professionals. The Responder Ballistic PPE vest is suitable for calls involving acts of violence, active shooter response, rescue task force, or any potentially dangerous situation.
• The Quantum™ (Blood & Fluid Warming System) from Life Warmer™ is lightweight, compact, and has a warm-up time of 24 seconds1. The system is indicated for warming blood, blood products, and intravenous solutions prior to administration in adult and pediatric patients greater than 28 days old and of normal birth weight. It is intended for use by health care professionals in hospitals, clinical fields, and transport environments to help prevent hypothermia.
• The Tactical Medical Kits contain products that can help provide life-saving care for point-of-wounding, available in compact, durable, and lightweight configurations optimized for tactical operations.
