  • Great show!!

    Late to the podcast but catching up. Listened to corporate greed and it should be a state of the union address! It’s 2024 and it still holds true. Enjoy the direct, no apology attitude!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Listener Questions, NEMSAC Termination
Q: When you were a newish paramedic, did you ever get too amped up on calls?
Yes, it's common for new medics to feel amped up on calls. Learn to separate yourself from any feelings of individual responsibility for a patient's condition and work on remaining calm.
July Listener Questions (Clinical)
Q: Does a call require ALS just because the patient has altered mental status?
No, altered mental status is not a guarantee for ALS, it requires a thorough assessment.
July Listener Questions (Clinical)
Q: Do you have a thought process for choosing between Rocuronium and Succinylcholine?
The host states they don't have a preference as long as they're equipped with a paralytic, emphasizing both options are valid under the right circumstances.
July Listener Questions (Clinical)
Q: How did you get so good at EKGs?
The host emphasizes the importance of fundamental knowledge, particularly focusing on injury, ischemia, and infarct, rather than advanced interpretations.
Surgical Airway Debrief
Q: Why didn't that patient's stats improve?
In this case, you're describing a guy that's already cyanotic when you're starting the procedure, probably just had a tremendous amount of aspiration and asphyxiation from the blood that he swallowed.
