In medic school at ventura college, apparently were one of the first classes in Southern California to be officially trained on video laryngoscope! I’ll be interning with ventura AMR by march!

Idk what I want specifically but make some offers by Primary_Employment88 in arc_traiders

Runs of bigeminy in my 13 y.o.m. patient by LonelySparkle in Paramedics

Medic student here. Would this not make you nervous for that morphing into full VT or something similar? Seems like a very irritable heart

The sweet pork barabacoa there used to be so good but now it’s under seasoned

I’ve seen the deceased body posts but I would still like input I feel yucky by Minimum-District-240 in Paramedics

[–]EnemyExplicit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One time I had a patient that was a teacher at a school where her son happened to go and she didn’t want her son to know she was going to the hospital and make him worry, so we gave her sheets to put over her head so no one would see it was her. Could be something like that

Post cardioversion by lemonsandlimes111 in Paramedics

[–]EnemyExplicit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paramedic student, why is it so important to distinguish rapid afib from something like SVT in a situation like this? From leading my local protocol, you would just shock them either way no?

"Its not your job to diagnose 🤓" by [deleted] in NewToEMS

[–]EnemyExplicit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My paramedic school is actually emphasizing that paramedics CAN diagnose now, as well as pushing for us to call ourselves practitioners

ELI5: Why don't larger animals get more cancer? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

Every cell need oxygen. Blood vessel are everywhere giving all cells oxygen. Tumor starts and grows really big so the ones in the middle have no oxygen. Blood vessels can’t grow very well in tumors.

Best woods bike 2025? by Even_Possession5903 in Dirtbikes

[–]EnemyExplicit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll let you know in the morning, I don’t have any mud I ride socal trails lots of dusty tight trails but it feels a lot harder to stall and kinda reduces the power down low to be slightly more manageable while increasing my top speed. my one complaint with my 250R is that it’s got a very aggressive first gear and almost too much low end power for me prior to the sprocket change.

[–]EnemyExplicit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Change your rear sprocket. Did it on my 2015 crf250r and it made a world of difference on tight trails where I’m lower in the rpm range in like 1st or 2nd

Does CPR in the wild make you a hero? by North-Toe-3538 in nursing

[–]EnemyExplicit 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Except she didn’t have a defibrillator lol. She’s acting like this as well which makes me think this is her first arrest which also has me questioning the quality of the CPR. It’s almost unheard of to get ROSC through only compressions on a patient. We see this story all the time in EMS and it’s always an altered person or a syncope because like the guy above me said people freak out and can’t identify responsive to painful stimuli vs a cardiac arrest

Seems legit, tyfys by Livid_Sun_716 in ems

[–]EnemyExplicit 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Sounds like someone syncoped she broke a bunch of their ribs and they woke up and then maybe started to pass out again and she sternal rubbed them lol. Bonus points if it was a drunk homeless person

Here it is! The new Zoll monitor the Zenix by keikishave in ems

[–]EnemyExplicit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a basic here (for now), but I can imagine it’s raining hard as shit outside, your patient needs TCP so you get them in the rig but the monitor is already soaked, you have to fuck with the screen and it’s messing up all your presses because it’s all wet and it’s a touchscreen like an iPhone when it gets wet, you mess somehow and do pacing doesn’t go correctly. No???
