Only non-cardioselective beta-blockers?

it's a well needed reprieve from the constant :censored::censored::censored::censored: storm of new information that keeps piling up!

explain?

Just had an "ahh haaa!" moment in class! Its about time... 12-leads have been, well, challenging for me. I'm sure I am not alone. I have been struggling with localizations of MI's (remembering/visualizing reciprocal changes as well as affected vasculature). It has all started to click into...

I've seen some other posts just like this and its amazing to see all the differences in opinion. I believe that it helped tremendously to get the hang of SOP as emt-b before diving into als. On the other hand, i know lots of docs that went right to medical school knowing squat about prehospital...

I have a small bag, never used it for general public use but it does come in handy for friends and family. I cant seem to keep cold packs in there :) IMO, its a good thing to have handy but dont over do it...ive managed to stock it from overstocks at my garage with the basics. You never know...

Get the experience. You may have been dealing with a few of the "special" guys over there. In my experience, theres always a core group of dedicated, educated people in small town services. But there never fails to be a few odd personalities. For your own personal growth in EMS, get the...

We need to remember that drug use is easy to hide if they're good at it. I've seen a few great medics drug/drink themselves out of a career because they couldn't ask for help. Since we're trained to be the help its often hard for people to ask for help when it involves something as sensitive as...
