Gwuhja Posted March 6, 2020 Posted March 6, 2020 Title. Im just curious to see what the advantages of using one over the other are. Also, personally Ive been putting 5u of Epi in cryotubes as CMO/Chemist. Am I a clown for doing this? It always seems like patients die in the tubes, so...

Pckables Posted March 6, 2020 Posted March 6, 2020 Epinephrine, Atropine is only good for patients fairly heavily into crit, and despite it saying it helps cure cardiac failure, I've found its success rate way lower than Epinephrine. Epi is probably a good thing to have in the cryotube mix, just as long as its a low enough amount that you're not causing an overdose when they come out.

Gwuhja Posted March 7, 2020 Author Posted March 7, 2020 So as a CMO would you recommend 5u Atrop 5u Epi 5u Saline 5u Salbut in your hypospray? (med hypos cant accept atropine for some reason) Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/18171-medical-atropine-vsor-epi/#findComment-141304 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaty Posted March 7, 2020 Posted March 7, 2020 Would recommend having a pill bottle with salbu pills and a belt with 1 bottle of epi, 1 bottle of atropine, 2 bottles of saline glucose and 1 bottle of charcoal along with the handheld defib Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/18171-medical-atropine-vsor-epi/#findComment-141307 Share on other sites More sharing options...
das bread Posted March 8, 2020 Posted March 8, 2020 My new go-to is taking both hypos from the dispenser. I fill one with epi and the other with saline. It’s good for keeping people stable as you try to fix the rest of their trouble. As for fast critting and deep into death, it’s better to have a good cyro tube mix and fix the IB that is likely killing them. ;) Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/18171-medical-atropine-vsor-epi/#findComment-141331 Share on other sites More sharing options...
