Why would you need a personal pulse oximeter as an EMT? Your service should be providing them.Hello everyone, what is a good Pulse OX to use day to day. I'm interested in buying one, I'm not a salty EMT yet but, during ride alongs I have been on there were none. I have heard from some friends they buy them. What is a reliable brand?
Thanks,
John

And i know you keen sense for when someone is about to "crap out " wont help you out on your PCR with vital signs
I know about the narrative. That was my failed attempt at humor. LOLi never said that narrative portion was taken out i'm just saying that i was taught that you need a COMPLETE set of vitals before you can turn your PCR in
I didn't know it was possible to be conscious with that low of a BP until that day. The lowest I have ever seen with someone still alive was 21/4. That was recorded on an arterial line in someone we were trying to resuscitate from a cold water drowning.damn i didn't even know a 32/0 bp was possible
