It's too easy. It's sad when the pt has an obvious LBBB negative on Sgarbossa criteria, but because the machine is retarded and spits out **Acute MI Suspected** the medics feed off of each others excitement and anxiety. Makes it even funnier when one of the paramedics considers himself an "expert at paramedicine"*
*This is the same paramedic that thought the ECG was broken when it didn't show artifact when he shook the lead. The right upper limb lead. While the monitor was on Lead III... *sigh*
Nice. Please tell them they didnt call a STEMI alert?
Linuss and I have a theory on another large department in our part of the state...
"If we put enough paramedics on scene maybe SOMEONE will know what the hell they were doing"
This is sig line material..and Im saving it for future use.
