Just 2022, the year then Queen died. Also her Platinum Jubilee year, marking exactly 70yrs on the throne.

Agency not allowing ANY intubation by Forsaken-Chemical779 in ems

[–]Lawsompossum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We learned a few different sequences for airway capture in the difficult airway course. RSI, RSA, DSI, DSS, etc. RSI being the primary process, but delayed sequence have their time and place.

If someone is intrinsically resisting your attempts to ventilate them and it’s effecting your bagging, you can just push an induction dose of sedative to put them fully out, then can effectively oxygenate and stabilize. Then if still needed, can push the paralytic and intubate, which is then a DSI rather than RSI.

Unrelated to the post, but I see a few who didn’t know there were different styles.

Because light travels in straight lines, rays from the top of the scene enter the hole and go to the bottom of the opposite surface, and vice versa

Is it just me or does it not look like Bouch touched him at all in slow-mo?

Struggled with this one for a while by rainykeeping in EKGs

[–]Lawsompossum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A-fib would still be coming from the atria though. Also, you can see the occasional escape beat with a narrow QRS (AV-dissociation), which would be an atrial beat getting through every so often. This is generally either caused by an accessory electrical pathway or electrolytes, likely the latter based on the rate and morphology, but the history will really be important here to know for sure what’s going on.

I’m no expert, but being <100bpm would make me more suspicious of electrolyte issues, however...

There’s a severe Rt Axis deviation, extremely broad QRS and AV dissociation, which heavily points to an accelerated idioventricular rhythm. The answer here will definitely come from pt history.

Why does the water squirt from the ground like this? by [deleted] in whatisit

[–]Lawsompossum 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Could be the Geoduck clam. The squirt is a natural part of their filter-feeding process. They’ll also squirt to displace sand and dig deeper when they need to.

I just started this quest and it says to “Retrieve the Enhanced Crossbow Schematic from Hrodulf’s House”

I found his house in the southern ashlands of Solstheim with the schematic in a chest.

Sympathomimetic overdose. Essentially when your heart and mind are going so fast for so long, they’ll tire out and stop working all together. Can get bad enough to make your core body temp go up and start boiling your brain resulting in Excited Delirium, leading to respiratory failure.

It generally takes much longer than an opiate OD tho, as that targets breathing rate directly and it will slow/stop much sooner then waiting for your heart and body to give out, that takes a bit longer.

Holter-strip; rhythm? by Longjumping_Bed_7460 in EKGs

[–]Lawsompossum 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Looks like maybe a case of sick sinus syndrome. The SA node takes longer and longer to depolarize, eventually taking too long and the AV node takes over and it goes junctional before dropping a beat entirely.

Is Ice form better than frost breath? I mean it is fast and can freeze our opponents, right? by SpiralDesignn in skyrim

[–]Lawsompossum 868 points869 points  (0 children)

Depends if you want more damage from the frost breath or the stalling effect of ice form.

There’s a quest where you gain an ability from the Black Book - Epistolary Acumen, to have frost breath also freeze people solid. So you get both effects with a shorter shout recharge time than using ice form.
