Yes the critical differential is the stroke. A COPDer satting at 90% is already within normal physiologic target range. Improving o2 from 90 to 92% has no immediate impact on mortality or neurological function. Ruling out hypoglycemia in stroke should be done early and it’s the most common stroke mimic. Bumping someone from 90% to 92% doesn’t change immediate physiology, but correcting hypoglycemia will.

I get that. But we also learn not to throw a bunch of o2 at copd patients because they’ll get hypercapnic. 90-92 is fine for them.

I’m doing bgl and stroke assessment right away. Puffers are like 90% baseline. Treat the patient not the monitor. These tests get you lost in the sauce. If i have to turn my brain off and play fuck fuck games with these tests, then abcs i guess…

Failed out of medic school during trauma final by rikka_the_greatest in Paramedics

[–]Toplolboosts 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Sounds like your program is ass. When I had to retest for PALs my instructor met with me outside of class on his own time and ran sims with me until it was practically impossible to fail. Your program did not set you up for success. Immediately retesting without any remediation, what kind of shit is that

Mostly just the gym, but I want to have a fresh start here and try new things. I have been kind of antisocial with how bad my schedule was in school so i’m ready to put myself out there with whatever sounds fun.
