They officer cant respond to you at the moment because they are suffering the effects of fentanyl overdose from the 4 vials of fentanyl in your narc pouch. Do you know it takes 1 nanogram to kill 50,000 people?
Actually, there is some research that suggests narcan on a hypoglycemic patient could help. The way I read it, some patients will have something called HAAF(hypoglycemic associated autonomic failure) which will cause endogenous opioids to take up space where insulin would otherwise go. By administering naloxone, you could potentially raise a patients BG. It’s not a large population of people that are affected by it, but that’s something I learned a little while ago. I recommend researching it a little bit cuz I could be wrong about certain aspects of
So now your new protocols says to alternate between back blows and abdominal thrusts, is that so? Over here (Norway) protocol has always said to do that, makes me wonder what your protocol said before?
The American Heart Association that publishes these guidelines every few years isn't the most well-loved organization here nor the most responsive to new evidence, but it is a big organization.
It was five back blows and then five chest compressions for infants. And the cut off was, basically, if you could do abdominal thrusts on the child then do those
Immediate crich. Don't even try anything else.
Choking? Straight to narcan.
Death? Straight to narcan
Impalement? Straight to narcan.
Immediate criching? Believe it or not… straight to narcan.
What are you a cop?
Thank you for narcaning my hypoglycemic patient officer

It did back blows and abdominal thrust for infants and (I think) peds, but now it's for everyone.
Interesting, TIL.

But for adults, just Heimlich until loss of consciousness and then CPR?
American Red Cross has been teaching it that way for almost 20 years. American Heart Association is just catching up with that
Did you check a blood sugar though?
I forgot to do that for a suspected stroke once. Everyone within screaming distance let me know that I messed up
Just start running up to them snapping the Magill forceps like a lobster claw.
I suddenly no longer need help
Damn, I was thinking different back blows 😕
