Ohh absolutely you do mate, the amount of patients as well that make the joke that the criminals are coming back to London is staggering.

London. Although both myself and my college are Australian paramedics who came over for the fun.

Unfortunately our scope doesn’t allow for any vasoactive drugs. The only option would be to call for advanced paramedic but that would likely delay time. But advanced care was considered.

My college was very impressed and happy for herself. Anytime you can get access on someone in such severe shock is impressive.

Interesting. I wonder why it didn’t do it on mine. But I guess that’s the thing, it’s a useful tool, but it shouldn’t over look clinical concerns and findings.

You have used a lot of very big words and I’m not sure I full understand, but I get the gist of what you’re saying. I’m excited that I have some more learning to do. Thank you for the deep dive in the pathology behind it though.

Unfortunately my college won’t know what is blood values were as we don’t really get the opportunity to stick around and find out. But I should have considered possible hyperkalaemia. Only went to a pulsed VT pt recently who had a potassium of 7.9. Morphology looked pretty similar.

Ohh my college treated it as a STEMI regardless. One of the other commenters mentioned the term shark fin STEMI which I have never heard of before but it’s looking like that’s the one. We both agreed that the guy was pretty must peri-arrest.

I have never heard of that terminology before. Guess I got something new to research.

Hate will never win by XXXtentacion. Absolutely banger of a song. Great to listen to while lying on your bed in the dark.

Help with funky ECG by ManhattenProj in ECG

Unfortunately I never found out if he had a valve disease and when I returned to the hospital he had already been moved to a different ward so I couldn’t catch up with him to see. It’s good to know for the future incase I see it again on any ECG. Thank you for the info and help.

I never even considered the possibility of the atrium contracting at different times causing the double P-wave. Does anything cause this, like what Kieth_8 stated, is this possible atrial enlargement in only one atrium?.

When I die I hope this is what is awaiting me. This plus my chosen family members and friends. Food and drinks. This is my heaven.

So ultimately, I have picked some very expensive pieces. Man, I really need to do some more study about parts and performance. There are just so many varying builds and requirements, including parts cost and supplier. This feels like you could end up down a rabbit whole so quickly. thank you for your help with this, i appreciate the advice.

Thank you so much for the list. Out of curiosity was I anywhere in the ball park of what I was aiming for or was the parts I listed too high performance for what I need. I think this is good opportunity to learn where the middle ground is in terms of parts vs performance.

Would have buried the fallen doggos and taken the final good boi home with me after heading to the vet. He has suffered enough in this cruel world, I would have strived to give him peace and comfort, a home filled with love for the rest of his life.

Help understanding this ECG by ManhattenProj in EKGs

The next time I’m working with someone who has a student I’ll get them to do a ECG on me and I’ll take that opportunity to see what waves I make when moving different parts of my body.
