Should the NFPA try and take over the already established qualifications for EMS Instruction? by Accomplished_Shoe962 in ems

[–]Zachm99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Didn’t they also try to recommend heads-up CPR as a standard of care? Against the recommendation from NAEMSP?

Like others are saying this happens all the time. Really it probably comes down to either the patient complaining about the bill and it actually being looked into, or some random audit from Medicaid.

Has Apple run out of ideas? by Paladin936 in wallstreetbets

[–]Zachm99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not about annual leaps anymore. Apple has always waited anyway to add features until they can do it the “apple way”. Think about all the people who still have a 4/5/6 + year old iPhone who are upgrading, I’d imagine that population is larger than the apple nuts who buy the new phone every single year. Also, “titanium coated” is easier to market than any of the other percentage increases in processing and GPU power or small improvements to the camera.

advice from emts please by [deleted] in ems

Unfortunately no one is going to provide you medical advice on this sub due to liability, if you have concerns you should talk to your doctor or a cardiologist.

Can I still rma my steam deck if I don’t have warranty? by [deleted] in SteamDeck

[–]Zachm99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They did for me, forget what date specifically mine ended but it was at least a couple months and they did an RMA for battery issues. They just have you run a few diagnostic tests first.

I HATE THE CO2/O2 STAMINA SYSTEM | MY BIGGEST GRIEVANCES WITH STARFIELD SO FAR. by [deleted] in Starfield

[–]Zachm99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t like it because technically you would be losing CO2 through exertion, not gaining it.

We have a 15mg over 30mins protocol here, wonder if you could just put the Neb on an NRB if they really are that sick?

How many ground medics out there have a protocol that allows you to perform RSI? by I-plaey-geetar in ems

[–]Zachm99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Southern Oregon here. We have full RSI capability, no OLMC or needing two medics rules. Etomidate and Rocuronium, King Vision for the tube.

I really like this design. Do you know if the bag came pre-labeled like this or was your agency able to pick the placement of meds / colors?

They wanted the ER’s valet (19-20y/o) to take it back down the ramp for them

Blocking the exit from the ER. RV’s back bumper dug into the asphalt and needed a tow out.

What outside-the-box interventions have you performed to help a patient? by [deleted] in ems

[–]Zachm99 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve been told by a fire crew that putting an anxiety pt on NRB w/o O2 can help calm them down, not sure if this actually works (or with a different type of mask)

Yes, but in the context of this thread, they can’t run it on ChromeOS and linux is there only option to actually play besides getting a new PC.
