    I am interested in a response to this as well.

    Glad to see that this has been done. Now I don't have to constantly flip between sections.

    For the chemistry majors out there, 10 points for answering these two questions: - What kind of stroke (ischemic vs haemorrhagic) was probably seen? - What would be the reason for this (simple question- simple answer)? It might be useful in trauma but only up to a point for this reason.

    Was there any indication that the animal was a police dog though? How would the driver have known?

    Guess it was a human trial...I don't know how they find people to do these things...8 degrees Celsius...no thanks.

    What also bothers me is when fire gets on the radio and decides to start rambling on...thus jamming dispatch.... Other times though, I don't have a problem with it. On the contrary it can be quite comical....an example was the time that our crash truck was on the way back to the station from an MVA... "167 in pursuit of a red Corvette..." That was hillarious. Turns out the guy was a drunk driver and he didn't want to let him get away so he tagged him until the cops arrived.

    Wiping down every single area that was possibly touched during a patient encounter at all during the day. Yes, I know that I'm contributing to the situation of antibacterial and antiviral resistance, oh well. I really don't like putting my ungloved hand in sticky stuff that isn't mine; especially if it's red. I wish others were more conscientious of cleaning up after their calls.

    http://www.priory.com/cmol/manageme.htm http://www.postgradmed.com/issues/2005/03_05/cote.htm Discusses management of COPD by Beta-2 agonists such as albuterol. If COPD is a usually a result of two or three different respiratory diseases like asthmatic bronchitis, chronic bronchitis, and emphysema, I don't see how it could hurt. Wouldn't it give relief by just working the same way it works for asthma (except for treating the emphysema part)?

    Right, need to make my sentences more clear.

    Good thing that in the US we don't actually have true NRB only semi-NRBs. Something about patients used to suffocate. I don't really buy into this research though. I'd also be interested to know how much the patient's superficial arteries would dilate during shock compared to the expansion of arteries in vital areas.
