Really? Again the 12 lead rules nothing out. If you suspect cardiac involvement Paramedic needs to keep patient.
If most every patient is getting a 12 because that is expectation of the system, isn't it not fair to the medic to have to take everyone in that has no signs or symptoms of cardiac issues? If you're doing a 12-lead because you suspect something cardiac the yes, the patient should be ALS, but if you're doing the 12-lead just for the sake of doing to cross it off a list I would think that grays the water a bit.
