@smuramed @emcrit Pretty sure I remember you intubating a coding patient on the actual ground without interrupting compressions. Worth taking an attempt as long as there’s no time wasted off of the chest or all SGAs now?

@reverendofdoubt Sometimes a water does more to keep you awake than more caffeine. Also, changing socks at some point is strangely refreshing.

@smuramed @CriticalCareNow @hagahmedMD @HeySteveMD @msiuba @HarmanSGill @srrezaie @GomerFoamER @PulmCrit @tsquaredmd @DzurikMD @EMNerd_ @emlitofnote I let them ride. Something that likely doesn’t make a positive or negative impact, and is another task for you and the team to address. Reduce the noise. Cognitive offload when possible. Focus on quality CPR and reversible causes. We can talk drips after ROSC.

This is just a bombshell. Something that looks explosive with nothing of substance inside. No matter his health state before those 9 minutes, no person deserves to die under the knee of a police officer.

BOMBSHELL: Document filed today shows the Hennepin County Medical Examiner concluded that George Floyd had fatal levels of Fetanyl in his system and his death would have been ruled an overdose under normal circumstances

Send a repeat BMP while in ED. Worsening Cr/GFR will need dialysis
