How long do yall wait after narcan before you intubate. I have seen it take a long time to work.

Igave 2 IN and 4 IV to the last guy we had no changes and performed RSI. His pupils were fixed at 4 I think we were treating anoxic brain injury. His HR was 150 after rsi and 5 of versed. This guy was snorting it.

Thats funny

No one is "in charge".

Nurse, better pay better hours. I like the work I do but I regret being a paramedic.

Try to get on a 911 job. Work on building a professional attitude, being a good communicator and taking initiative at your department.

Maybe EMS is not the field for you. I would try to deal with it in a natural way, I'm not a big fan of long term benzodiazapines since they are very addictive and seroius consequences can be had after coming off of benzos. I wish I could help better but good luck.

you need to get it expunged. What was your disposition? How old is it? First request a record from txdps. If it does not show up on this record you could be fine. I would still get it expunged. Yes you can get some sort of ems job but it may not be San Antoino fire. You need to do things to...

Thanks I don't like it either.

The Atropine for pediatrics is a little confusing also

My boss wants to use this protocol for RSI. I wanted to use the AEL protocol The main problem I have is no amnesia from Fentanyl in post intubation. I'm just going to copy down the short and sweet of it. There is a long list of contraindications, some are less than 2 yrs of age, epiglottis...

Good scenario, thanks for the education. I think I would have chased the AMS a little more. Hypoxia is east to fix with a BVM and a good seal. I would definitely look for a reason not to give Lasix and I don't think it would have been hard to find. I would want to get a last known well and a CO2...

Start working out at the gym if your are worried about it. Google it.

I am happy if the unit does not have more than 200k miles on it and all the components are functioning on it. Our stretchers are pretty light because they are from the 1980s.

There are plenty of good paying EMS jobs in and around H-town. The economy is generally pretty good out there. I know Harris County Emergency Corps is a the best in town probably. There are plenty of suburbs with non-fire EMS. Cypress Creek is a big one Montgomery county is good, Galveston...

I've done it, just be as professional and mature as possible. You don't have to say anything that would not relate to your job. That is just what I did.

RocketMedic; you are so immature. If you worked at my service you would not be clear to RSI just based off your attitude.

There will be a test for competency and not every one will be clear to do RSI. We have a great bunch of guys and most of us are older guys. Thanks again for the input.

How do you guys prepare and administer Ketamine?

Thanks for your encouragement RocketMedic and I will cease the project immediately.
