they said we did great

Ok so we were standing by for a children's triathlon Patient was dizzy, and felt like she would puke (she had just finished) outside temp was 60 A+O times 4...quite nervous, crying-had her cramp in her left side-9 yrs old female Airway: unremarkable, Breathing: very Fast , shallow...

jeeze didnt realize how hurtful people are on this site...whatever, I just wont post stuff here again...strangers, you win once again :sad:

thanks just did a little research

She passes out almost every day, even in a very air conditioned classroom. Would you think this is fasting hypoglycemia, given her eating disorder?

So I saw a guy pass out yesterday. It was 90 degrees out, and he was sweating bullets. Anyway the EMTs got him on a strecher, then he woke up as he was riding to the rig. Was this a bad case of heat exhaustion? (these are the only signs ans symptoms I know, I wasnt there to assess.)

do you cut the PT's upper body clothing away if cpr is required? (bystander, AED hasnt arrived yet)

real mature

this is the first actual scenario I have put up...the others were ficticious

i was on the other side of the mountain (jiminy peak in mass. my mom walked the pt in question down, didnt even give me a phone call...if iwere there I woulda called NSP.

lol <_<

yea i was just focusing on the assessment portion...so you think the best course would be to get her off the slopes and expose/assess in the first aid station/rig?

You arrive and the patient is complaining about a broken arm. Bystanders indicate that she took a very hard fall (fell and rolled/slid 100 ft down the somewhat steep trail). The patient indicates she has neck pain. (midline down the C-Spine) Actions: C spine precations, head to toe...

what are the odds of coming across a patient who is a non diabetic with hypoglycemia? How would this occur?
