Why no pharmaceuticals?

I contacted base to ask about getting either a dop or Epi drip but they just wanted us to go with NS. We transported another patient to the same hospital several hours later and they have a total of 6L in her with a crappy pressure still. They still haven't given any medications. They were just starting an art line on her.

Smells like sepsis

Oh Google Translate app I love you! You are a lifesaver for patients who speak no English, or for me, who doesn't speak their language!

I would love to know their rationale....

No clue. Without base order for the drip there isn't much I can do in the field aside from fluid bolus

Respirations were 18 and clear, patient had a normal temp and was not altered in the slightest. I believe I heard the PA say her WBC came back WNL.

Did you perform a desk pop to check it?

It clicked when I pulled the trigger. Is that what you're talking about?

That's usually part of the function check. Google your model with function check and you'll see what's involved specifically for your pistol.

Click and not falling apart is usually a good sign!

Then you load a full magazine, rack the slide and check you have a round in the chamber, goto your nearest computer desk and fire it loudly into the air...everyone here has done a desk pop...

 

[Anjel]

Uhhhh I don't think my husband would like me shooting a gun into the ceiling lol

Sigh....y'all are killing me smalls....

None of you guys saw the movie The Other Guys??? Hilarious movie, go see it (and I'm normally the one living under the rock not seeing movies that the rest of the world has lol)

In completely unrelated tangent....one of my coworkers was blowing up my phone today (that's what I get for forgetting it in the ambulance while in the station) damn near begging me to swap shifts with him for tomorrow (I was scheduled for a 12 hour shift, him a 24 hour shift)....when I finally get a hold of him he said no, no real reason other than he wanted an extra night off at home with his wife....so being the nice guy I swapped shifts since my only plans for tomorrow night was zone out on the couch in front of the tv lol (I didn't ask why he blew up my phone instead of some one else's but oh well) So now I'm working a 24 hour shift at our slow station where I'll be running as many calls as I would've in my 12 hour station
