 | Michael Hurt @rat_pack_fan @MedicNow @Ambutigger @robetall @dmcmylor @Damian_Roland @ReevePara @EMS_Information @ChippyLyn @tvi675 I'm about What's the subject? #medchat |
 | Fountain Valley Urgent Care @FVUrgentCare 5 Shot Friday-Ancient Enemy, Bulletproof Coffee, The Price of Nice article by @doccottle https://t.co/0QBJfKwsXm #5ShotFriday #MedChat |
 | Ryan Lord @RyaLord @MedicNow Never to date fortunately! Perhaps a benefit of the area I work in. A lot of industrial units where acid type injuries could occur. #MedChat |
 | Jack of all trades @jackofparamedi1 @MedicNow Luckily not in these parts! #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @mlg1611 @MedicNow Treatment wise did you opt to treat for the worst case or was it pretty clear it wasn't needed? #MedChat |
| Fountain Valley Urgent Care @FVUrgentCare 5-Shot Friday-5-ish principles to hit the ground running article by @doccottle https://t.co/71MkgTicrG #5ShotFriday #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @mlg1611 @MedicNow Industrial plans likely useful in treatment but rely on knowing the substance & access to other agents unlikely in acid attack #MedChat |
| Michael Hurt @rat_pack_fan @MedicNow Went to a supposed attack......was just vodka from a jilted girlfriend #medchat heard nothing of actual attack round here |
| Jack of all trades @jackofparamedi1 @MedicNow misleading to the public they will be acting before we arrive, them knowing what to do is imperative #MedChat |
| Michael Hurt @rat_pack_fan @MedicNow Not for public. Something they understand/relate to. It bugs me that "heart attack" is used for arrest situations but 🤷🏻♂️ #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @MedicNow @kosher_medic Have found the intense smell was a bit much... Pt managed to intentionally drink a glass full of concentrated fabric softener! #MedChat |
| Jack of all trades @jackofparamedi1 @MedicNow How easy is it to tell the difference at first glance? Not something I'm experienced in #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @njg_03 @MedicNow And blue roll for dry dusting off substances! Our blue roll is supply is now white roll which is disappointing! #MedChat |
| Jack of all trades @jackofparamedi1 @njg_03 @MedicNow I like your thinking, but I don't carry those! #MedChat |
 | Kyle Warner @krackers_89 @MedicNow #medchat doesn't the media coverage generally exacerbate the issue? Although I can't imagine many kids watching the news... |
| Fountain Valley Urgent Care @FVUrgentCare 5-Shot Friday-Organ Chips, Obamacare, Blessed Snopes & Reps article by @doccottle https://t.co/T9SMqyHh0c #5ShotFriday #MedChat |
| Michael Hurt @rat_pack_fan @MedicNow IMO it maybe givin others ideas. Similar to DSH, it was never heard of when were a nipper but so many youngster read about it now #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @mlg1611 @MedicNow Agree... are they more numerous or just a current trend/buzz in the media? #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @mlg1611 @dmcmylor @post12marshal @MedicNow If it were an acid attack as part of a terror related incident I wonder if the buzz words used in the media would change also? #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @njg_03 @MedicNow More widespread damage potential with an acid attack... throw a corrosive liquid around & injure several in a crowd rather than 1? #MedChat |
| Michael Hurt @rat_pack_fan @MedicNow More sadistic really, maiming / scarring rather than ending a life = more premeditated. Are knife thugs that focused? #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @kosher_medic @MedicNow Also the possibility of burping bubbles... ha ha. I wondered if their stools were nice and soft! #MedChat |
| Fountain Valley Urgent Care @FVUrgentCare Stupid Muesli, Smart Carbs, Good Stretching and Nice Weight Loss article by @doccottle https://t.co/PLnoOUcyra #5ShotFriday #MedChat |
| Kyle Warner @krackers_89 @MedicNow Pts house, pub/club, anywhere there's a tap and receptical to collect it in #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @MedicNow @LeeLfloyd5 The effects would likely be hugely worrying in 1st instance... likely to sting, burn & temporarily blind + psycho effects. #MedChat |
| Michael Hurt @rat_pack_fan @MedicNow Tap or hose, utilising anything close Bottled? Sodium chloride at a push, depending on ??ph #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @MedicNow Made use of the office kettle and kept refilling for burn filling recently, holds a litre a time so quite useful! obv cold water! #MedChat |
| Jack of all trades @jackofparamedi1 @MedicNow I went to a burn PT in a caravan park, all the holidaymakers had formed a chain passing water in whatever receptacle they could #MedChat |
| Fountain Valley Urgent Care @FVUrgentCare Read Tim Ferriss’s 4-hour workweek, the latest research on growing eyeball. https://t.co/qIt2XgomxI @doccottle #5ShotFriday #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @dmcmylor @mlg1611 @LeeLfloyd5 @MedicNow Is that risk less than leaving burns etc untreated? Not ideal but fixable with later cleaning? Would worry about pressure... #MedChat |
| Michael Hurt @rat_pack_fan @mlg1611 @MedicNow Nope.....guessing too much tho. Would be quicker just goin to a capable a&e #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @PaulElliott_ @MedicNow Am aware of prisoners using hot sugar water for burns in prison attacks... guess it could coat burn making cleaning difficult? #MedChat |
| Kyle Warner @krackers_89 @mlg1611 @MedicNow Surely a collapsible camping style container or 2 kept in vehicles would be a good idea as someone could keep refilling? #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @LeeLfloyd5 @dmcmylor @mlg1611 @MedicNow Agree... get it cooled etc first then worry about the rest. Burns study day I did suggested pretty much any cleanish fluid. #MedChat |
| Kyle Warner @krackers_89 @MedicNow #MedChat the coding could be Miss constrewed, think I'd be on the radio... 😱 |
| Michael Hurt @rat_pack_fan @mlg1611 @MedicNow Even for an isolated incident? I.e. "Acid attack" not multi casualty CBRN major incident? #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @PaulElliott_ @MedicNow Though if access to a suitable source better to stay at scene for the initial treatment and provide optimal first aid? #MedChat |
| Michael Hurt @rat_pack_fan @mlg1611 @MedicNow As for hydrant. Not sure an ambulance resource would be able to lower pressure enough for pt use #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @rat_pack_fan @mlg1611 @MedicNow Best thing for the patient is to try optimum cooling & irrigation asap rather than just running isn't it? #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @dmcmylor @ParamedicTutor Had a colleague do the air dry & worked well till after the shift when he opted to shower... ouch... #MedChat |
| Fountain Valley Urgent Care @FVUrgentCare An article on how you should cook a dish, how to recover from sudden injuries by @doccottle https://t.co/qIt2XgomxI #5ShotFriday #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @mlg1611 @rat_pack_fan @MedicNow Though I guess thinking likely acid attack locations more likely to be big city meaning nearby ED? #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @rat_pack_fan @mlg1611 @MedicNow Stand a fair distance back and would shower maybe? #MedChat |
| Michael Hurt @rat_pack_fan @MedicNow Trauma desk consult maybe!? Not a MTC but we have a burns specialist unit only a further 20 mins past local A&E / TC #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @njg_03 @MedicNow Also the issue of how frequent & up-to-date that training is... lots of CPD & refreshers already, would many bother? #MedChat |
| Michael Hurt @rat_pack_fan @RyaLord @mlg1611 @MedicNow Didn't suggest "just running". ?hydrants in my area are different to yours as they're not easily accessible and pressure is high #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @PaulElliott_ @MedicNow Ideally 15 to 20 mins initially assuming access to suitable source. However is drainage of the contaminated fluid then an issue? #MedChat |
| Jack of all trades @jackofparamedi1 @MedicNow Can there be a delay in symptoms with airway involvement? #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord RT @mlg1611: |
| Kyle Warner @krackers_89 @MedicNow I would hope the latter but the sad reality is it's probably going to follow knife crime. #MedChat |
| Jack of all trades @jackofparamedi1 @MedicNow Hopefully just a phase, but what next for us to face after that???... #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @martinStamp86 @mlg1611 @rat_pack_fan @MedicNow Concern for the run off contaminant Needs consideration though also... #MedChat |
| Michael Hurt @rat_pack_fan @mlg1611 @MedicNow Maybe I'm focusing on my main A&E too much, as they have a functioning decontam room / ambulance entry #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @rat_pack_fan @MedicNow Lucky that although a distance from me the MTC is also regional burns... #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @Scenestalker1 @mlg1611 Any run off issues with contamination? Or likely to get sufficient dilution? #MedChat |
| Fountain Valley Urgent Care @FVUrgentCare "We are here to add what we can to life, not to get what we can from it" by @doccottle https://t.co/D5dOJafqMD #5ShotFriday #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @rat_pack_fan @mlg1611 @MedicNow I wouldn't have access to them either just mean in the hope of an access to a suitable source... #MedChat |
| Kyle Warner @krackers_89 @JEPnews #MedChat |
| Michael Hurt @rat_pack_fan @MedicNow Staying --> more common place 😰 #MedChat |
| Ryan Lord @RyaLord @PaulElliott_ @MedicNow I wouldn't have thought so as such but guess a large area is more difficult to cool... bearing in mind hypothermia risks. #MedChat |
