Episode 13 of Esquire's coverage of The Pitt centers on Dr. Marc Grossman, the EMS medical director from New Hampshire, who utilized the EZ-IO device to address a life-threatening situation. During a severe snowstorm in 2021, he was faced with a 17-year-old girl suffering from a brain hemorrhage after a car accident. Traditional surgical methods weren't feasible due to weather constraints; thus, Grossman resorted to the EZ-IO drill, which he knew could effectively relieve the pressure, ultimately saving her life. His experience exemplifies innovative problem-solving in emergency medical care.
