HEY GUYS!

I'm missing you all!  Send me a post/comment on this blog so I can catch up a bit.  Good luck Gutwein on the MG.
I'm praying for you schaf with the match. 

Today was crazy.  I was a first responder to a code (lung/heart failure) and the resident was not able to intubate.  So, I got to do it!  It was very exciting.  I've always heard that in your first code situation you forget everything.  I haven't really studied my code book in awhile so I didn't know enough to forget :o).  He was apneic (not breathing) and in asystole (no heart beat), however, with intubation and a couple ampules of epinephrine we had sinus tachy.  Our hospital is out of respirators so the family has to continue bagging him through the night.  The patient presented with a blood glucose of 24.  Our brain demands glucose.

That's all for now, God Bless,
Clint
