In an inspiring new video, Chester EMS showcases its groundbreaking efforts to bring advanced trauma care directly to the scene—performing lifesaving blood transfusions in the back of a moving ambulance. This critical intervention is changing the outcome for patients suffering from life-threatening blood loss before they ever reach a hospital.

At the heart of this capability is the APRU 6L (Autonomous Portable Refrigeration Unit)—a rugged, field-ready blood cooler that ensures whole blood is stored at the precise temperature required for safe transfusion. With real-time temperature monitoring and up to 95 hours of battery life, the APRU 6L gives EMS teams the confidence to carry blood wherever it’s needed.

But it’s not just about the tools—it’s about the heroes using them. Chester EMS is leading the way in prehospital trauma care, making critical transfusions possible when minutes matter most. Their dedication and readiness to deploy this kind of care in the field is setting a new standard across the country.

This video is more than a behind-the-scenes look—it’s a glimpse into the future of emergency medicine, where technology meets decisive action to save lives.
