I really wonder if paramedics will ever learn field RSI is a pretty darn dangerous undertaking, and if they're really as concerned about lawsuits as they say giving up endotracheal intubation all together would be in their best interest.

Yea, but the thoughts in response to a couple of post on here and a few conversations I've had in real life in the last week. Too many people don't seem to understand the laryngoscope can be a murder weapon.

Agreed. Especially when it's not a regularly practiced skill and is performed horribly. I cringe when I see the "I almost see the cords.... almost.... almost...almost..." while the patient is turning blue. *sigh*

Max weight is 5 oz. so we already added some weight to get closer to that. His car was roughly 2 1/2 oz before adding the weight.

I remember doing the pine wood derby. It was alot of fun. We always ended up outing the extra weight under the car after cutting out some of the wood down there so the weights fit in flush.

Yeah, man you would never have thought old Bob would get that excited over a birthday card that played the chicken dance song. That Bob is one hell of a nurse but screams like a girl when he gets excited.

Being on a basic truck sucks, especially when you can't respond to anything. Apparently we are also too incompetent to respond code 3 without Medic supervision

Most in EMS are too incompetent to respond code 3.
