What does a normal 12 lead with no st elevation but depression in some leads signify?

BP 80/42 vomiting copious amounts

His blood pressure needed 1000cc and I gave him what he needed

Yes I had an 18g in right hand and 16g in left AC with fluids going in each. He ended up getting total of 1000cc by the time I got to hospital

Will remember that :)

They prefer zofran because it's less invasive and usually only want you to give phenergan as a last resort but when you do give it you can give 12.5 mg IM or 12.5 mg IV diluted with 10cc of normal saline

Yeah I gave it to a patient last night. Some services carry both just incase you have a patient who is allergic to zofran

Thank you all!

Unfortunately

I was very familiar with zofran until my partner (a medic of 25 years) said zofran was an NSAID and had me questioning myself

If you have a patient with a gsw to abdomen which would you prefer zofran or phenergan for nausea/vomiting and why?

Please don't try to show off. I asked a question please give me a straightforward respectable answer

I know what it's for. It's an antiemetic and I was gonna give zofran was senior medic said give phenergan because zofran is NSAID and he's been shot in abdomen

I was wondering if it was contraindicated for a patient was a gsw to abdomen. Someone said it was an NSAID

He was shot with a 22, patient was stable. He had vomited and was dry heaving afterwards
