02 for STEMI is verboten here unless they are de-saturated
Same here, oxygen in general is absolutely contraindicated in all patients unless there is an indication for it. We have had it smashed into us over and over that we must not give oxygen unless there is clinical evidence of hypoxaemia; particularly in those patients with stroke and myocardial ischaemia.
I have almost seen a crew dukeing it out over their positions on giving oxygen; one pro and one against; it was like .... damn guys its just bloody oxygen, chill!
