ROFL, emtb2rn - reminds me of a recurring joke with a few of our staff, discussing the event that we ever lost our jobs and licenses and had to take up "exotic dance" to pay the bills. #1 stage name? "Delada," * of course.
* Say it fast and it sounds an awful lot like a very well-known trade name for hydromorphone...
That said, on to the Resuscitation League:
"The Cardioverter" - able to psychically convert any arrhythmia to NSR by staring at the patient's rhythm strip. "A-fib, begone!"
"Easy Breather" - with powers over ventilation and perfusion. Can tag-team with Electrolytra to get your patient out of respiratory acidosis. "A little BiPAP, a little bicarb, and we're in business."
"Electrolytra" - able to control electrolyte disturbances. Magic word: "KAYEXALATE!"
"He-Mostasis Man" - can use his "Clotting Factors" to stop bleeding and reverse coagulopathies. "DIC is no match for me!"
Opposed by the Crash Crew:
"The Edematous Flash" - can flood lungs with a single glance. "She was fine three minutes ago, I swear!"
"Triaginator" - ties up your triage station for hours gabbing about ingrown toenails while 35 patients wait in chairs. Usually works in tandem with The Silent MI.
"The Silent MI" - Alter ego: Joe Papercut. Sits in your waiting room for hours with a chief complaint of nothing, before magically transforming into a full-blown resuscitation case.
"Dr. Dismal" - can psychically erase physician orders for antibiotics, fluids, pain management and diets, thereby leaving your patients miserable and you with no recourse.
...This is entirely too much fun.

Hey there! This is just for fun... Every now and then I like to start a post that's light and refreshing. Some of the posts here can really bring me down, LoL!
Soooo with that said:
If nurses were a team of hereos:
a) What would your superhero name be?
b) What would be your superpower?
c) What would be your nemesis/villians name?
