Night from hell.
I recently had a man approx 60 y.o ? attemt suicide by train.
He may have been laying on the tracks, train moving slow between stations.
When we arrived he was GCS3, agonal resps, obvious depressed skull fracture. BP 90/50 pulse 140. He had some jaw clenching so it was OPA and bagging, couldn't get an LMA in.
Started giving fluids to raise BP. Eventually backed up by Doc and ICP, 70mg ketamine and 100mg rocuronium later he was intubated. CT at hospital looked nasty. I check up and apparently he is still in ICU. Not sure of what the outcome will be but if he was essentially GCS3 on scene it cant be good.
I currently have no partner scheduled for Saturday, meaning I get to spend the day working with my ex and her fiance... oh the joy.

Sometimes people just don't know when to chill.

Can someone please ban that pseudoseizure troll?
What does PNES stand for?

Ignorance truly is bliss.
I love reading the comments on videos like this. Aside from the video being a major HIPPA violation...

Some heroic save they made...first floor fire, thick smoke, doing CPR on the front lawn. Seems more like a successful body recovery to me...
I'm pretty sure the guy did not survive (not 100% sure).
This fire department is about 45 minutes away from my house in a high crime and bankrupt city.
