I know when it comes to first responders, watches are a solid point of debate. I've sat around the crew table before with each person sharing their watch and the reasons they like it.
Right now I have an analog watch with a silicone wrist-band for easy-cleaning and a colour contrasting second hand. I like it for my initial vitals check but I'm working toward my EMT-P and know I'll need something with a digital display to accuratly record drug/intervention intervals. (Right now the 'event' button on our LP-15s is enough).
I'm curious what other EMT-P responders use. Also curious if you carry a mini-calculator for infusion calculations.
Cheers.
