Not such an absolute truth. 

We do need level 1 very occasionally when transfusing pelvis after an
exfix/compression has been put on - not for its speed of transfusion but
for its efficacy in heating the blood.

No place for level-1 in resus room unless you plan to operate there! If
they are bleeding that much then they should be in the OR or at least on
the way. Takes time to set-up, delivers excessive amounts of fluid and
it slows down transport to theatre. Keep it in theatre!

We have one and use it in patients who require massive transfusion--more
so in the OR rather than in the ED. We also use it for continuous
arterio-venous rewarming of hypothermic patients.

We bought one when our hands were slapped because we did not have one in
opur EC.  That happened during a trauma center revoew.   We have never
used it in the EC and have rarely used it in OR.  It makes a good coat
rack.    These kind of devoices contribute to fluid overload.
