The XABCs are Exsanguination, Airway, Breathing, and Circulation... Not Airway, Breathing, CPR. Also should add info highlighting the indications and contraindications for Aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid), as that was left unaddressed and open to interpretation -- antiplatelet drugs could exacerbate bleeding in a lot of circumstances but can help with heat attacks. Aaaaand... Time in FAST means "when did it start/how long?" not "Time to call an ambulance" -- It's very important for EMS personnel to know WHEN the signs and symptoms began for proper treatment at definitive care. And the stock images could cause certain individuals of limited critical thinking to believe that chest compressions are unnecessary if an AED is present... as they show one person yapping on the phone while the other runs off to grab the AED. -Cactus W.
