I was amazed when I registered my Ranger in CA and they told me it was a commercial vehicle and needed to hit the scales.

Yeah I know it sucks you have to register as a commercial vehicle, strange about the scales, didn't need to do that with my truck. Apparently I've heard as a rumor that if you put a bed cap on your truck that you don't have to register it as a commercial vehicle. Don't know how true that is.
 
Things are getting better at work. The past two weeks were fun. Might be better cause I t

I got to see 2:1 atrial flutter. Per AHA, atrial flutter is the third most common supraventricular tachycardia, yet I don't feel like I see it often even when I am looking for it. I read an article recommending to look at the histogram of the heart rate trends to see if the rate is changing a lot (I can do this easily on the LifePak, but not sure how to do it on the Philips). When I observed this rhythm, I didn't see the rate change much between 136-137, but the histogram looked similar to patients we have transported with sinus tachycardia. I wonder if it is because of a short transport time that you cannot really appreciate this? I would have loved to try the Lewis lead on this patient (even though it wasn't needed to appreciate that it was 2:1 atrial flutter), but I wasn't running the show. I didn't want to step on any toes.

Starting to notice a lot of people using the newer anticoagulants: dabigatron (pradaxa), apixaban (xarelto), and rivaroxaban (eliquis). Will warfarn (coumadin) be similar to MAOIs and pretty much forgotten in the near future?
 
Warfarin is probly still a better drug than dagigatran and rivaroxaban for most peeps, and cheaper than apixaban. I think warfarin will be around a while but might take a back seat in 10 years or so but never go away is. MAOIs. Despite its significant drawbacks, it provides more effective protection against strokes than dabigatran and rivqroxaban and equal protection to apixaban. I will PM you my paper and poster on the subject. Glad to see more of the new oral anticoagulants though.

I think A flutter gets mistaken for A fib more often than it gets diagnosed.
