| ==A Breakdown of Basic Chemicals [[File:bluebottle.png|64px]]==
| |
|
| |
| Whilst working in the Medbay there is a wide variety of chemicals you might encounter. They can most reliably be found in medkits, NanoMed Plus vendors, and Chemistry's Smartfridges.
| |
|
| |
| While this list doesn't cover nearly all the chemicals, it's a good primer on chems you'll frequently encounter and need. To see every chemical, check out the [[Guide to Chemistry]].
| |
|
| |
| '''Important: Corpses cannot metabolize chemicals.''' Use advanced healing kits, auto-menders, or medicine with effects that don't rely on being metabolized, such as Lazarus Reagent or Synthflesh.

| ==Defibrillator [[File:Defrib.gif|64px]]==
| |
|
| |
| The defibrillator is used to revive dead patients. '''Time is key.''' If a corpse is brought in, make it a priority to revive it as defibrillating them is often the fastest way to fix them.
| |
|
| |
| * Open the patient's strip menu and remove hardsuits/armors from their exosuit slot.
| |
| * Scan the patient with your Health Analyzer. If they have more than 180 brute or 180 burn damage, [[Guide to Medical#Damage Types and Basic Treatments|treat their damage]] until both are below 180. Respiratory and toxin damage do not matter for defibrillation.
| |
| * Alt-click the defibrillator to get its paddles. Use the paddles in hand to wield them.
| |
| ** You require two hands to weild defibrillator paddles.
| |
| * Click on the patient to attempt revival.
| |
| <br>
| |
| Corpses can be revived up to five minutes after their death. A patient with a necrotic heart or missing heart cannot be defibrillated. [[Guide to Medical#Damage Types and Basic Treatments|Husked]] patients need to first be de-husked with the use of [[Guide to Chemistry#Synthflesh|Synthflesh]]. The defibrillator can give the following messages upon usage:
| |
|
| |
| * '''<font color=blue>Resuscitation successful.</font>''' - You succeeded!
| |
| * '''<font color=blue>Cardiac arrhythmia corrected.</font>''' - Person was undergoing a heart attack which was fixed.
| |
| * '''<font color=darkblue>Patient's chest is obscured. Operation aborted.</font>''' - The chest is blocked by a hardsuit, space suit, or another similar exosuit. Remove it first!
| |
| * '''<font color=darkblue>Resuscitation failed: Severe tissue damage detected.</font>''' - Patient's brute and/or burn damage is above 180. Keep healing them!
| |
| * '''<font color=darkblue>Resuscitation failed: Heart tissue damage beyond point of no return for defibrillation.</font>''' - Patient has been dead for over 5 minutes. Proceed with cloning or preparing for using [[Guide to Chemistry#Lazarus Reagent|Lazarus Reagent]].
| |
| * '''<font color=darkblue>Resuscitation failed: Heart necrosis detected.</font>''' - The patient's heart is dead. It needs to be fixed through Organ Manipulation surgery by reviving it with [[Guide to Chemistry#Mitocholide|Mitocholide]], or removing the necrotic organ and replacing it with a new one.
| |
| * '''<font color=darkblue>Resuscitation failed: Patient's brain is unresponsive. Further attempts may succeed.</font>''' - The player is not in their body, but is still in-game. They get a notification about your attempt of revival - give it a few more tries!
| |
| * '''<font color=darkblue>Resuscitation failed: No electrical brain activity detected.</font>''' - The player has enabled AntagHUD or DNR, and is now unrevivable.
| |
| * '''<font color=darkblue>Resuscitation failed: Failed to pick up any heart electrical activity.</font>''' - They are missing their heart! Find it, get a cybernetic one from Robotics, or harvest one from a monkey or another source, and insert it into the body during Organ Manipulation surgery
| |
| * '''<font color=darkblue>Resuscitation failed: Subject is husked.</font>''' - Patient needs to unhusked with aid of [[Guide to Chemistry#Synthflesh|Synthflesh]] - treat their burn damage below 200 points and feed and/or splash a total of 100u of Synthflesh on them. Husks caused by a [[Changeling|Changeling's]] absorption are not fixable.
| |
| * '''<font color=darkblue>Resuscitation failed.</font>''' - The patient commited suicide and is unrevivable, or [[Changeling|something]] [[Guide to Chemistry#Capulettium Plus|weird]] is happening.
| |
| * '''<font color=darkblue>Unit is unpowered.</font>''' - The defibrillator's cell is depowered. Use a screwdriver on the defibrillator to eject its cell and insert the cell into a cell recharger.

| |
| ==Damage Types and Basic Treatments [[File:Advanced Firstaid Kit.png|64px]]==
| |
| Most damage will fall under four major categories: Suffocation, Toxin, Brute, and Burn. These will show up on the Health Analyzer and in low amounts are very easily treated. There are also treatment kits for each of these categories located within medical storage.
| |
|
| |
| '''Important: Certain species have to be treated differently than others. Failure to do so can and will lead to their death. See [[Guide to Medical#Racial Differences|Racial Differences]] for the special treatments.'''
| |
|
| |
| <tabs>
| |
| <tab name='Suffocation Damage'>
| |
|
| |
| ''' Suffocation Damage [[File:oxykit.png|32px]]'''<br>
| |
| <small>''This shows up as a '''<font color=blue>BLUE</font>''' number on the Health Analyzer and Crew Monitoring Console''</small>
| |
|
| |
| Suffocation results from being in areas with low oxygen, low blood count, certain chemicals or severe damage to the heart/lungs.
| |
| * '''Areas with low oxygen:''' Drag and drop the patient on your character to open their inventory. Place a breath mask on their "Mask" slot and an (emergency) oxygen tank in their "Backpack" slot. Click on "Set internals". '''This only works on species that breathe air.''' Everyone has a "box" in their backpack which has both the breath mask and an oxygen tank.
| |
| * '''Low blood count:''' Check their blood type with your Health Analyzer, take a Blood Bag from a freezer (found west of the Sleepers or in the surgery rooms). Put the blood bag on an IV drip, then drag and drop the IV drip on the patient. Administer the '''corresponding type of blood''': do not give O- to everyone and make sure the types are compatible or it will kill them.
| |
| * '''Certain chemicals:''' Chemicals like [[Guide to Chemistry#Cyanide|Cyanide]], [[Guide to Chemistry#Pancuronium|Pancuronium]] and overdosed [[Guide to Chemistry#Histamine|Histamine]] can cause suffocation. Purge them with [[Guide to Chemistry#Pentetic Acid|Pentetic Acid]], [[Guide to Chemistry#Charcoal|Charcoal]], [[Guide to Chemistry#Calomel|Calomel]] or with [[Guide to Medical#Dialysis|dialysis]].
| |
| * '''Severe heart/lung damage:''' Fix their organs via [[Surgery#Internal Organ Manipulation .28Non-Synthetics.29|organ manipulation surgery]]. Make sure they don't die during the process.
| |
| * '''Healing respiratory damage:''' Administer [[Guide to Chemistry#Perfluorodecalin|Perfluorodecalin]] or [[Guide to Chemistry#Salbutamol|Salbutamol]] to rapidly heal respiratory damage. [[Guide to Chemistry#Epinephrine|Epinephrine]] and CPR will also slow progress of suffocation on critical patients. (On help intent, click on the patient with nothing in your hands to administer CPR). A handheld defibrillator removes a large chunk of respiratory damage when used on a critical patient. It is important to eliminate the cause of respiratory damage - generally it is caused by the patient's critical condition.

| ''' Toxin and Radiation Damage [[File:toxkit.png|32px]]'''<br>
| |
| <small>''This shows up as a '''<font color=green>GREEN</font>''' number on the Health Analyzer and Crew Monitoring Console. The presence of radiation can be detected with a health analyzer, but a body scanner or geiger counter is necessary to ascertain the value.''</small>
| |
|
| |
| Toxin damage can be easily identified by the person constantly taking damage or vomiting. It is caused by a damaged liver, ingesting narcotics or toxins, overdosing on certain medicines, getting the wrong blood type, having an infection - especially septic limbs/organs - or by radiation.
| |
| * '''Removing radiation:''' First of all, remove all of the patient's items, and empty their bags - this includes emptyping any boxes inside of such bags, and even things such as taking the pen out of their PDA - under a shower to remove any radiation contamination. This is vital to prevent further damage to the patient, yourself, and others. After the immediate threat is nullified, start removing radiation from the patient with chemicals. For small amounts of radiation (under 1000) you can get away with using [[Guide to Chemistry#Potassium Iodide|Potassium Iodide]]. Otherwise, [[Guide to Chemistry#Pentetic Acid|Pentetic Acid]] is your best bet - it also heals the resulting toxin damage. Once the purging chemicals are out, and the patient is under 1000 radiation, use [[Guide to Chemistry#Mutadone|Mutadone]] to remove any potential mutations.
| |
| * '''Damaged Liver:''' Administer enough [[Guide to Chemistry#Pentetic Acid|Pentetic Acid]] or [[Guide to Chemistry#Charcoal|Charcoal]] to reduce their toxin damage to (and keep at) zero and fix their liver with [[Surgery#Internal Organ Manipulation .28Non-Synthetics.29|organ manipulation surgery]] in the meantime.
| |
| * '''Narcotics, toxins and overdose:''' Purge the chemicals with [[Guide to Chemistry#Pentetic Acid|Pentetic Acid]], [[Guide to Chemistry#Calomel|Calomel]] [[Guide to Chemistry#Charcoal|Charcoal]] or with [[Guide to Medical#Dialysis|dialysis]]. Calomel causes significant toxin damage itself, but will never kill the patient, and is the fastest of the three, though Pentetic Acid is preferred due to being almost as fast as Calomel, with much less severe side effects. It is important to only use one of these chemicals, or they will purge each other.
| |
| * '''Wrong blood type:''' Use [[Guide to Medical#Dialysis|dialysis]] to get the wrong type of blood out of their system.
| |
| * '''Infection and septic limbs/organs:''' Administer [[Guide to Chemistry#Spaceacillin|Spaceacillin]] in case of infections or amputate the limb until it can be fixed.. Septic limbs/organs are extremely infected and may die before they can be treated. Be prepared to use the [[Surgery#Debridement and Limb Revival|debridement surgery]] to revive them.
| |
| * '''Healing toxin damage:''' Administer [[Guide to Chemistry#Pentetic Acid|Pentetic Acid]] or [[Guide to Chemistry#Charcoal|Charcoal]]. Alternatively, shove the patient into a cryotube.

| * '''Broken bones:''' Fix their bones with [[Surgery#Bone Repair Surgery|bone repair surgery]].
| |
| * '''Internal bleeding:''' Fix their internal bleeding with [[Surgery#Internal Bleeding Surgery|internal bleeding surgery]]. Look out for their blood level and if it is too low, refer to the next point.
| |
| * '''Severe blood loss:''' Check their blood type with your Health Analyzer, take a Blood Bag from a freezer (found west of the Sleepers or in the surgery rooms). Put the blood bag on an IV drip, then drag and drop the IV drip on the patient. Administer the '''corresponding type of blood''': do not give O- to everyone and make sure the types are compatible or it will kill them. Administer [[Guide to Chemistry#Perfluorodecalin|Perfluorodecalin]] or [[Guide to Chemistry#Salbutamol|Salbutamol]] if they start choking.
| |
| * '''Organ damage:''' Fix their organs with [[Surgery#Internal Organ Manipulation .28Non-Synthetics.29|organ manipulation surgery]]. Brain damage can be fixed with [[Guide to Chemistry#Mannitol|Mannitol]], eye and ear damage can be fixed with [[Guide to Chemistry#Oculine|Oculine]].
| |
| * '''Healing brute damage:''' Use an advanced trauma kit, shove the patient into a cryo cell, into a sleeper (and administer [[Guide to Chemistry#Saline-Glucose Solution|Saline-Glucose Solution]]), give them [[Guide to Chemistry#Salicylic Acid|Salicylic Acid]], or administer [[Guide to Chemistry#Styptic Powder|Styptic Powder]] or [[Guide to Chemistry#Synthflesh|Synthflesh]]. If they are dead, use [[Guide to Chemistry#Styptic Powder|Styptic Powder]] patches, [[Guide to Chemistry#Synthflesh|Synthflesh]] patches or an advanced trauma kit (by targeting the injured body parts) on them. Automenders work aswell.

| |
| ''' Burn Damage [[File:Fire First-Aid Kit.png|32px]]'''<br>
| |
| <small>''This shows up as a '''<font color=orange>ORANGE</font>''' number on the Health Analyzer and Crew Monitoring Console''</small>
| |
|
| |
| Burn damage can result from fire, electrocution, energy weapons, exposure to extreme temperatures, or certain chemicals, such as acids.
| |
| * '''Patient is on fire:''' Grab a fire extinguisher from a cabinet (white box on the wall), activate the extinguisher in your hand to remove the safety and click the tile of the patient.
| |
| * '''Patient has burn wounds:''' Use the [[Surgery#Debridement_and_Limb_Revival|Debridement surgery]] on the wounded bodypart, or if you are in an emergency and can't operate, use ointment and burn kits which, after enough uses will heal the wound after a few minutes. Salving also prevents infections from happening.
| |
| * '''Patient is a husk:''' Large amounts of burn damage result in an unidentifiable, grey-colored body. This can only be fixed by applying 100u of [[Guide to Chemistry#Synthflesh|Synthflesh]] to the body after most of its damage is fixed. Husked patients cannot be revived aside from cloning.
| |
| * '''Extreme body temperature:''' Shove them into a cryo cell to inject them with [[Guide to Chemistry#Cryoxadone|Cryoxadone]] which heals if the patient is supercooled. It also cools down patients if they are too hot. [[Guide to Chemistry#Teporone|Teporone]] can also stabilize their body temperature.
| |
| * '''Healing burn damage:''' Use an advanced burn kit, shove the patient into a cryo cell, into a sleeper (and administer [[Guide to Chemistry#Saline-Glucose Solution|Saline-Glucose Solution]]), or administer [[Guide to Chemistry#Silver Sulfadiazine|Silver Sulfadiazine]]. If they are dead, use an advanced burn kit (by targeting the injured body parts), [[Guide to Chemistry#Silver Sulfadiazine|Silver Sulfadiazine]] patches, or [[Guide to Chemistry#Synthflesh|Synthflesh]] patches on them. Automenders work aswell.

| |
|
| |
| Slimes in [[Xenobiology]], non-upgraded cloners, and [[Guide to Chemistry#Lazarus Reagent|Lazarus Reagent]] cause cellular damage. Stamina damage is most often caused by non-lethal weapons, such as disablers or beanbag slugs - this type of damage is not dangerous to the patient. Hallucinations can occur from a radiation field event, ingesting narcotics, having a genetic defect, or the abilities of certain antagonists.
| |
| * '''Healing cellular damage:''' Shove patient into a cryo cell. [[Guide to Chemistry#Cryoxadone|Cryoxadone]] heals genetic damage. If patient still has a living slime on them, disarm the slime, and use a fire extinguisher to kill it (water is lethal for them). Be careful - [[Grey]]s are hurt by water.
| |
| * '''Healing stamina damage:''' It is recommended to just wait until it wears off.
| |
| * '''Healing hallucinations:''' If the station entered a radiation belt which causes hallucinations, just wait until it passes. If it is caused by narcotics, administer [[Guide to Chemistry#Pentetic Acid|Pentetic Acid]] or [[Guide to Chemistry#Charcoal|Charcoal]] to remove them or use [[Guide to Medicine|dialysis]]. If it is a genetic defect, use [[Guide to Chemistry#Mutadone|Mutadone]].

| |
| '''Notes'''
| |
| * '''Infections''' can occur from untreated, open wounds or by embedded objects. Make sure you close every incision during surgery. They can develop into acute infections that will eventually lead to necrosis. Just 5u of [[Guide to Chemistry#Spaceacillin|Spaceacillin]] cures most infections. If the patient has an embedded object in them, [[Surgery#Embedded Object Removal .28Non-Synthetics.29|remove it with surgery]]. Necrosis can be treated by [[Surgery#Debridement and Limb Revival|debridement]] or by [[Guide to Chemistry#Mitocholide|Mitocholide]] (see above).
| |
| * '''Broken bones''' cause organ damage over time. If a skull, chest or a groin is left untreated for a long time, it will cause organ failure (which leads to a very quick death). Broken limbs can be splinted to temporarily remove the penalties associated with the broken bone (dropping items for hands and arms, slowdown for feet and legs).
| |
| * '''Low blood count''' is 90%, though the damage from that level is still manageable without medicine. Everything below 60% will cause the patient to suffocate to death. Being well-fed increases blood production.
| |
| * '''Brain damage''' manifests in many ways, such as the inability to use machines, yelling, screaming seemingly incomprehensible things and so on. Some patients might be crazy by default, but most often they shout because they need [[Guide to Chemistry#Mannitol|Mannitol]].
| |
| * '''Corpses''' should be treated as soon as possible. If defibrillation/cloning does not work and they are waiting for being revived with [[Guide to Chemistry#Lazarus Reagent|Lazarus Reagent]], it is a good practice to ask the [[Coroner]] to inject them with [[Guide to Chemistry|Formaldehyde]]. It will stop their corpse from rotting.
| |
|
| |
| === Critical States [[File:Health_cycle.gif|32px]] ===
| |
| There are three types of critical states.
| |
|
| |
| The first is shock; this occurs when the patient is at or below 0 health (having taken at least 100 points of damage). This causes stammering, fainting, and an inability to see correctly. This can be cured by healing enough damage to bring them back up to 25 health, or by using [[Guide to Chemistry#Saline-Glucose Solution|Saline-Glucose Solution]].
| |
|
| |
| The second state is cardiac failure; this has a chance of occurring when a patient's shock is left untreated too long. The patient will be unable to see well, unable to breathe, and they will fall down often. When a patient's heart is failing, their condition will progressively worsen until they begin to undergo cardiac arrest. Cardiac failure can be treated with [[Guide to Chemistry#Atropine|Atropine]], [[Guide to Chemistry#Epinephrine|Epinephrine]], or [[Guide to Chemistry#Heparin|Heparin]], and is extremely unlikely to go away by itself.
| |
|
| |
| The third state, cardiac arrest, is extremely lethal. It will almost immediately cause the patient to drop to the ground and rapidly take brain and respiratory damage. If left untreated, cardiac failure results in near instant death. Treating cardiac arrest requires a defibrillator (handheld or otherwise).
| |
|
| |
| ===Racial Differences===
| |
| Some races require special treatment and failing to do so can lead to their death. '''This section is vital, make sure you read it closely.'''
| |
|
| |
| Depending on the race of the patient in question, specific forms of treatment may prove to be ineffective or even adverse to the health of the patient. Here's a breakdown of all the do's and dont's when it comes to the various species you may encounter during a shift.

| === Blood Types ===
| |
| If a patient is low on blood, you can do a blood transfusion. Voxs have different blood than other Species but do also follow the antigen and Rh factor when it comes to Vox to Vox transfusion. '''Mixing up the wrong blood types will cause toxin damage''' and can be fatal. Pouring differing blood types into IV bags may also prove to be deadly, '''expecially with mixing Vox and non-Vox blood.'''

| ==Sleepers and Cryo Cells==
| |
| [[File:MedbaySleeper.png|right|thumb]]
| |
| [[Sleeper]]s are useful albeit slow machines. They can cure addictions and inject patients with specific chemicals. Cryo cells always heal faster than Sleepers. They are designed to be a slow but infinite source of stabilization for critically injured patients or treatment of minor injuries. For most cases, medicines provided by NanoMeds or Chemistry are a faster and more effective source of healing, and Sleepers have difficulty fixing anything outside of Brute, Burn, Toxic and Respiratory damage. To use a sleeper or cryo cell, drag and drop people onto it then click on it to open the control panel. If you get the error message "subject may not have anything in their hands", it means they are holding something in their hands: ask them to put it away or drop it.
| |
|
| |
| By default, Sleepers have [[Guide to Chemistry#Ephedrine|Ephedrine]], [[Guide to Chemistry#Salbutamol|Salbutamol]], [[Guide to Chemistry#Charcoal|Charcoal]] and [[Guide to Chemistry#Saline-Glucose Solution|Saline-Glucose Solution]]. To see what these medicines do, refer to [[Guide to Chemistry]].
| |
| Sleepers can also heal addictions after a certain amount of time. The sleeper will alert doctors with a message audio cue once a patients addiction is cleared, this can take some time as well.
| |
|
| |
| If they get upgraded, the capacity for injecting more of these chemicals increases from 20 units to a maximum of 80 units.
| |
|
| |
| ===Dialysis [[File:SleeperSmall.png]]===
| |
|
| |
| Dialysis is the clinical purification of blood, as a substitute for the normal function of the kidney. When someone has ingested or been shot up with a large amount of reagents, a sleeper can rapidly drain them of said reagents. Quite often, a purgative chemical is more effective - though not infinite. To perform Dialysis, you will need a sleeper with a beaker inserted.
| |
|
| |
| '''Notes'''
| |
|
| |
| * You may need to empty the beaker out a few times to fully remove all reagents.
| |
| * About 1/5 of what you remove will be the patient's blood, though it is almost never enough to be dangerous, except when the patient already suffers from significant blood loss.
| |
| * Some chemicals, when extracted, will result in a sludge that cannot be remetabolized.
| |
|
| |
| ===Cryo Cells [[File:Cryogenics.png|32px]]===
| |
| With two located near the center of the Medical Department and one next to the cloner, it is a quick and efficient way to heal brute, burn and respiratory damage. Feel free to use it on every patient if Medbay is not busy but reserve it for more severe cases when there is a huge influx of patients.

| * Make sure the temperature control unit connected to it is turned on and the temperature is set low enough for Cryoxadone to function (indicated by the cryo cell's temperature reading turning green).
| |
| * Drag and drop people onto it then click on it to open the control panel. If you get the error message "subject may not have abiotic items on", it means they are holding something in their hands: ask them to put it away or drop it.
| |
| * Turn it on and make sure the "auto eject" mode is turned on as well.

| '''Notes'''
| |
| * At the start of each shift, the cryo cells have to be set up. Insert the beaker of cryoxadone next to them, turn on the connected temperature control unit and set it to a low temperature below 265 K. If no cryoxadone is in the cryo cells, they can still function as a way to stabilize patients and will continue to heal respiratory damage, but no other damage types.
| |
| * If the patient is not healing for some reason, there might be no cryoxadone in the cryo cell's beaker - check and replace if necessary - or the patient might be continually gaining damage from a source like some chemical poison, low blood, or radiation.
| |
| * There are so-called "cryomixes". These are mixtures made by chemists to speed up the healing process. They sometimes also add [[Guide to Chemistry#Mannitol|Mannitol]], [[Guide to Chemistry#Mitocholide|Mitocholide]] and [[Guide to Chemistry#Saline-Glucose Solution|Saline-Glucose Solution]] to it to make cryo cells even more effective. Adding a mannitol pill to the beakers at roundstart makes for a simple, yet effective cryomix.
| |
| * Cryo cells inject 1u of chemicals from the loaded beaker every 17 cycles, then multiplies those chemicals by 10. A 100% [[Guide to Chemistry#Cryoxadone|Cryoxadone]] beaker will inject 10u every 17 cycles, whereas a 70/30 Cryox/Mannitol mix will inject 7u of Cryox and 3u of Mannitol instead.
