Hey guys,
A crew in my service nasally intubated a very intoxicated patient. They say it was to protect their airway because she was already vomiting. The pt was breathing adequately so they just placed a nonrebreather mask over the end of the tube, and never provided any positive pressure support.
I have my opinions on the matter ( I would have bagged the pt), but what do you think. Would the crew members encounter any repercussions in your service area?
Sincerly,
Works in a weird place
