low flow o2 and vomiting

[Devilz311]

High concentration O2 may have some effect on N/V, but ondansetron, phenegran, droperidol or even diphenhydramine are much better choices. If intractible N/V can be cause for an admit, don't your patient's deserve ALS?

Ha... A certain ALS project near me didn't start carrying anti-emetics until about a year ago. And to top it off, most of the Medics that work there would absolutely blow a gasket if a squad requested them for N/V...

... And people wonder why I drive 45 miles to work elsewhere

These are some folks who need to get nauseous and then driven around in the back of an ambulance for a while.

(Once had a stomach bug hit while on a HEMS call. Changed my views in anti-emetics entirely).
