Biomed
Howdy everyone,
Things have been really slow around here lately. I haven't had a single decent call in a long time; just the usual routine transports. Oh well, I guess no calls are good calls.
I invited a friend of mine to do a ride along sometime in March so that should be interesting. I always get a kick out of the look that the novices have on their face on the first ride along. I'm not sure how she's going to react to it. Some take it easy and seem to be rather stoic about it, but the vast majority "freak out" and become really panicky. I'm going to opt for that latter with her.
The jump bag is still under construction. I'll have to have it fully ready before I move off to college. Again, I'll post pictures when I'm done.
I also went to my biomedical engineering mentorship which I really enjoyed. I have a few ideas for my engineering topic when I go for my undergrad which I can't wait to start. We also went over a presentation on electrospinning and the effect of various concentrations of collagen (actually in this case gelatin was used) on fiber size and pore diameter. That was actually pretty interesting. I want to make my own one day so that I can use it to make the blood clotting bandages. That would be useful.
Well, I'll get back to work now. Stay safe everyone,
Bravomedic out.

You should keep a small latex free kit with nitrile gloves...Ya never know. I also keep an epi pen in mine. Just a suggestion

hi, i just came across your blog and thought i'd ask you an EMT question. I have worknight class this month and need an idea on something to do for a trauma pt. I really want something different but I am having a hard time thinking of anything. Do you have any ideas?
