    Treat My Patient

    well heres my 2 cents for what its worth, and regards to that is one of the crappiest 12 leads i've seen.(no offense) I don't know what i'd settle on calling it other than a wide tachycardia with on demand pacing. I see some p waves although they do not all look unifocal. also the qt seems...

    Aaa?

    theres a couple of things here i think should be brought up. First of all yes Intubating is a definative and and in the long run best airway. But why should you waste time intubating when an airway can be very well maintianed bls, esspecially when there are other "definative" things that need...
