    How many codes make it?

    I thought there was one listed on the AHA CAB study too about mortality rates from 911 -> Hospital-> Home. Something like 3.6% or something which was an improvement from 2.9%? I think the AHA study is listed on Amercan Red Cross Webpage as a refrence for the new CAB method.

    Ambien

    Same here in the USA, it's considered a Controlled IV or Schedule 4. On a scale of 1-5 where 1 is being the most controlled substance. Vicodin (Hydrocodone/APAP) is a Schedule 3, and Adderall (amphetamine salt) is a Schedule 2.

    Another Firearms Scenario

    Heard this happened to another crew running a few weeks back and thought I'd ask everyones opinion on the matter. Yeah, I know, another wonderful gun scenario, but its becoming more apparent that EMS is starting to have to deal with street violence. Apparently, a person approached a rig...

    Ambien

    As someone with chronic sleep problems (insomnia at its finest) I've found that Ambien works best for making me fall asleep (I have no problem staying asleep).

    Yeah, If you don't think that the media networks do that too, huge mistake. I find it interesting that they took photos on scene. The only thought I could think of was that maybe one of them was use it as a training photo for a class... but thats a stretch. Im glad to know that they...
