  6. Only problem here is in NY there are no good samaritan laws, here people believe if you are a professional and identify yourself as such that they will be treated on the same professional level as everyone else. Of course all patients get the same treatment, however stopping to help someone without an ambulance is like showing up to work naked or something. You just don't have what you need to treat the patient properly. Other situation is coming from knowing the NYC system, we don't have any standard equipment meant to carry that much weight. The blame and responsibility, does not go to the FF's here, the blame goes to the on scene emt's and paramedics who were responsible for the patients transport and care. I will agree rare situations cause us to improvise, and adapt. I'm sure the Crew did take the appropriate measures such as calling the FF's to help with the lift/move. Trying to keep everyone safe, my question for all of you they rigged a pulley operated plywood lift. How do you think they secured the patient to the wood ? unless they drilled holes into it on the side like longboard handles to put straps in, then how ? Even if they drilled such holes, is the plywood strong enough to hold that of weight through those holes? Seems a little fishy to me

  8. Since no one seems to believe me. "Arrhythmias at Time of Conversion At the time of conversion to normal sinus rhythm, a variety of new rhythms may appear on the electrocardiogram. They generally last only a few seconds without intervention, and may take the form of premature ventricular contractions, atrial premature contractions, sinus bradycardia, sinus tachycardia[/font:ad6d6be944], skipped beats, and varying degrees of A-V nodal block. Such findings were seen in 55% of patients." http://www.rxlist.com/cgi/generic/adenos_wcp.htm < site
