If the bus is bouncing all over the street it either means A) the shocks need to be replaced or B) Someone had too many energy drinks while driving.

At least this isn't as bad as the trap phone poles I've seen in a certain city in which I once lived. (phone pole in the middle of sidewalk right in front of the window of a gym- naturally while everyone is checking out the body builders while riding by on bicylcles, etc. you end up with alot of...

Tiger, seriously dude, I'm going to have to remember to take you out to a Frisha's sometime. ;-) Where HAVE you BEEN?

Finally we get somewhere. So then, in theory your basically saying two things (that I'm not quite sure I'd agree with at this point) : 1.we'd rather see impaired gas exchange at the cellular level lending toward the direction of acidosis (i.e CO2 going up and O2 dropping - > as opposed to...

Yeah... I'm thinking it really doesn't make sense to cross the pond. After all, it's really not worth it to go through all that mess just to get paid in pounds and to have my tea and crumpets, when its just much easer to get them imported.

There are several laws of pump dynamics and that is but one of them. I wasn't specifically naming the name of a law involved, but I susepcted you arelady knew that, and are just trying to troll and stir the pot. (For those whom might really want to know google it.) And the point is that all...

Does not necessarily mean what you think it means. I've seen people use a belt sander and how should I say....attach a apparatus to the motor without how should we say considering the sheer velocity involved, resulting in significant rectal trauma.

Only Two a year? Lucky you. I once went two weeks seeing nothing but heroin overdoses, GSWs, and a couple Psych Hobos. Its about the only time in history I can imagine one praying for the powers that be to move someone's STEMI up two weeks, oh, and praying to and/or for Madonna to get hit by a...

They say everything is bigger and better in Texas. ;-)

Technically your just trying to be difficult. [mind you that's the censored version of what I really wanted to say, which was something more along the lines of using less letters to say it. ] ;-) But really can you quit trolling already?

I'm Talking about that nice little law of pump dynamics that people seem to overlook: Pressure(Rate) = Net Flow Where for our purposes here, Flow is a near constant because of homeostasis.

AS IN in the EMT-B's that come across these posts and often haven't the clue as to where we're going with these things. Truth is that you can frame up ANYTHING to be "condescending and arrogant" as you put it. Truth is, your just trying to pick a fight, and I'm not bitting. So yeah, do yourself...

But then the question becomes (for the sake of teaching the basics) , how then do we keep a decent ventricular load, as to keep control of the increased rate? It's going to seem like we're going to see an increased ventricular rate (i.e. sinus tach or at least some form or another of a tachy...

I'm sorry, but I Intended for that to be meant within the confines of the military / combat situation. Under the Geneva conventions, etc. if you offensively use a weapon you become a combatant, meaning you can be fired upon by enemy troops. Therefore, shooting back in such situations isn't...

True, that. UNLESS the patient had hypo- kalemia / -natremia to begin with. (curiously, I've heard of it happening, though never personally seen it.) I was more speaking in hypothetical / theoretical terms for some of the Basics on here that aren't quite familiar with some of the theory that...

Send in the Clowns!

In the presence of a male patient whom had a lost "device" in the rectum: To medical control. (after getting fed up with the radio going in and out to where they could only understand half the transmission.) I finally got so ticked at the radio that I made a colorful reference to "The...

The thing is that without proper load, pressing isn't going to do much anyways. The "leak" in the system will self-limit the net effect of the pressor at some point. Where we're going to have our first major problem however, is in that we are also diluting sodium and potassium with the massive...

:cool: Oh, Inquiring minds DO want to know....:D:p

While listening and following instructions is important. Remember there is no such thing as a stupid question. Ask questions often, particularly when your not SURE you know something. That is what these experiences are for- they sometimes present the rare exceptions to rules.
