Title Triage
Having worked in the medical field for 30-plus years, there are so many wrong procedures being done. EP 1: The patient with asthma and wheezing is not going to be laying flat on their back. The patient must be sitting up and dependent upon what type of wheezing, may be on 2 L of O2. Also, you are not going to intubate a patient who is moving air and breathing on their own. Intubation is respiratory arrest, distress, or cardiac arrest. The common treatment for asthma is an SVN treatment usually with Albuterol or Steroids done by a Respiratory Therapist. Every asthma patient is different in regards to how severe the asthma is or if it is Reactive Airway Disease. I get the fact that they need to be dramatic for the show, but it is much more believable when things are done correctly. Just my two cents and opinion, so don't crucify me over the little things that medical people notice. It does seem pretty good so far and will continue it through to the end. Tae Darvid is an amazing actor!!!!
