Should be warm enough, but not enough to sting.
I've tolerated hot but I didn't have a say in the matter.

I like it hot enough to sting, then turn it down a quarter notch for my body. For my hair/head, I like it cool.

Wife likes it hot (scolding hot) to start, I start off on the colder side and like to turn it up the longer we (I mean I) are in the shower.

I like my shower like I like my peppers, which is also the same way I like my women...hotter than hot.

Ladies and gents, I have a question...somewhat of a scenario but not that serious.
Had a patient brady from high 80s to 38 and lose a carotid pulse. Essentially pea back to normal sinus within literally 4 pumps of doing compressions....Im questioning if maybe the patient never lost a pulse in the first place and I jumped the gun? (Me and fire felt nothing).
The call went from the patient awake and talking to opa and bagging within minutes.

Normally awake people don't take an OPA without at least a little complaint and/or heated discussion.
I think you did fine...
Curious about opiates on board? Vagal tone? Perhaps your banging on her ribs was enough to get her awake enough to breathe and perfuse again? What was on the monitor before the compressions? Just slow brady? Did she wake right back up and spit the OPA out?

No she stayed at a gcs of 9, no opiates, i was thinking the opa atimulated her vagus but it happened a few minute after it went in and kept going down (hr 51 to 38) and she just looked like crap..it was a respiratory that went south. Hx of COPD on home o2, increased sob upon exertion. She was speaking sentences, no cyanosis nothing clued me into to how bad it would get. Once we got to the ambulance she kept saying she couldn't breathe so we attempted cpap and all bets were off, she was fighting us like mad and eventually took a few breathes with me and fire coaching her but it was too late. Respiratory failure and was RSId in the ER. Apparently she had pneumonia.
