    Regardless of the 12 lead unless you have the ability to check cardiac enzymes on your truck all chest pain should be treated as cardiac related. You would not withhold oxygen from a asthma pt with obvious diff breathing that had a saO2 of 100%.

    Yes not all hospitals are emergent cath hospitals. In Atlanta, of the 15 or so area hospitals only 5 are able to take pts directly (or almost directly) to the cath lab. You wouldn't take a trauma pt to a nontrauma center you should not take a cardiac pt to a non trauma pt. And just because a hospital has a cath lab does not mean the can get a pt right in

    Most new red light camera systems incorporate video as well as the still shot for the ticket . An officer has to review the video before signing a ticket.
