    LB -“Is this a job for Super Glue?”

    You should marry a guy that’s in the medical field. He’d take care of you!
    Anyways, we have a medical version of Super Glue, buy I don’t use it because the companies that make it, charge an arm and a leg! It probably cost them to make it the same as making Super Glue.
    There are many other ways to deal bleeding wounds.

    There are preventative measures to make peanuts safe:

    You missed my whole point , (IDK if on purpose or not), there are things like sports, that people do on a regular basis, you should take every precaution, not just banning it!
    The same thing with peanuts, the schools shouldn’t just take the attitude of banning. They should look for solutions, eg. all kids should only eat in a lunch room & make sure everyone cleans off afterwards.

    “Food Allergy Deaths: Less Common Than You Think
    By Meredith Broussard
    In her December 8 New York Times article, “Researchers Put a Microscope on Food Allergies,” Karen Ann Cullotta cites a statistic commonly used in articles about food allergies: “Up to 200 deaths each year are attributed to the most severe reaction, food-induced anaphylaxis,” she writes. A similar statistic appears in Nicholas A. Christakis’ recent British Medical Journal article, “This Allergies Hysteria is Just Nuts,” which is referenced in the Times‘ “Well” blog today. Dr. Christakis writes in the BMJ that “Only 150 people (children and adults) die each year from all food allergies combined.” Having seen these statistics used over and over again in the media and the medical literature, I wondered: how many people really die of food allergies? 150 or 200? As it turns out, the real number of food allergy deaths is much smaller: just 11. The 150-200 death estimate comes from the media resource kit of the Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis Network, a lobbying and educational group headed by a former marketing executive at Dey Pharmaceuticals, the maker of the EpiPen adrenaline injector (which is prescribed to millions of food-allergic patients). It’s time for journalists and doctors to stop using FAAN’s exaggerated statistic.
    We don’t need to rely on estimates for numbers of food allergy deaths because we have actual data. Since about 1998, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) have been tracking the number of food allergy deaths just as they track all the other causes of death across the United States. When someone dies in the US, his death certificate data is pumped into a massive database and indexed according to the 10th revision of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases, Injuries, and Causes of Death (ICD-10), a standardized system developed by the World Health Organization. ICD-9, the previous standard, did not have a code for food allergy deaths, but now we have solid data for almost ten years. The underlying number of food allergy deaths according to ICD-10 codes isn’t publicly available in CDC databases because it is so small—statistically insignificant, according to the CDC. A call to the CDC press office revealed that the number of deaths from food allergies, as collected from 2.5 million death certificates across the country, is miniscule. Only eleven people died from food allergies in 2005, the last year for which we have data available. More people died from lawnmower accidents.

    FAAN justifies its exaggerated estimate by citing a 1999 article from the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology called “Epidemiology of Anaphylaxis in Olmsted County: A Population-Based Study.” Deaths from anaphylactic shock are quite rare—so rare that the Olmsted County study is one of the very few studies that provides any rough numbers suggesting prevalence.

    The study gives us useful data on the potential prevalence of anaphylaxis, meaning a severe or multi-system allergic reaction. It does not give us very good data on anaphylactic shock, the most severe consequence of anaphylaxis. Not a single person in the Olmsted County study died from food allergies. Of the 133 Olmsted County residents who had allergic reactions over the course of five years, and furthermore out of the six people admitted to the hospital for allergic reactions, not a single person died of anaphylactic shock subsequent to a food allergy.

    Only one person in the Olmsted County study died. The cause of death: his throat swelled up while exercising. Yet we see schools calling for bans on peanuts, not gym class—even though, as Dr. Christakis points out in his BMJ article, about 10,000 children are hospitalized each year for sports-related traumatic brain injuries.

    The flawed food allergy death statistic has been questioned, investigated and debunked in articles published in Forbes, Child, the New York Times, and in a piece I wrote for Harper’s earlier this year. I understand why the inflated number persists: 200 annual deaths make food allergies seem like a terrifying potential health crisis. Health crises attract research dollars. Pharmaceutical firms can profit substantially from health crises: concerned parents are happy to buy a device like an Epi-Pen (and renew the prescription every six months for the next twenty years) if it means preventing a child coming to harm. But our world is already terrifying enough. Do we really need to exaggerate the threat of a health condition as manageable as food allergies?

    The time has come to stop using FAAN’s wildly exaggerated estimate of food allergy deaths. Food allergies are real, and certainly deserve respect and research, but stretching the truth about food allergy deaths creates unnecessary anxiety and fear for everyone. Especially those of us with food allergies.”

    “Success rates for initiation of intravenous therapy en route by prehospital care providers
    Corey M. Slovis. Author, 1990
    Department of Medicine, Emory University School of Medicine, Atlanta,
    Emergency Medicine Residency, Emory University School of Medicine, Atlanta
    Abstract
    The optimal extent of prehospital care, including intravenous (IV) therapy for critically III patients, remains unclear. The authors evaluated the success rate for IV cannulation in a moving ambulance by trained emergency medical technicians and paramedics in 64 – 1 adult medical- and trauma-related cases. At least one IV line was started in 80% of medical patients and 92% of trauma patients, regardiess of blood pressure. In hypotensive patients, the success rates for at least one IV in medical and trauma patients were 80% and 95%, respectively. These data suggest that IV lines can be secured with a high degree of success en route to the hospital by trained personnel, and that prompt transport of unstable patients should not be delayed solely to obtain IV access.”

    Your explanation doesn’t hold water!
    All your posts explaining why they did what they did on scene care are just excuses!
    The possibility that they did adequate care is very remote!!!

    When the first responder found a critical pt., along with the bystanders like EN, all he should have done was pick the pt. up and put her in his personal vehicle and then transported her to the hospital.
    I’m actually questioning this in all cases where the treatment is in the hospital. Moreover, the way the OP presented the case, she needed blood or blood products, not only saline or Ringer’s lactate.

    Because the OP had an agenda to besmirch EN, so I decided to see if your Hatzolah did a perfect job!
    So before anyone takes​ the OP’s word for it, let’s see what kind of job Hatzolah did.
    As a Macher on Hatzolah, you should be able to provide that info, quite easily!
    Is there a reason that you won’t provide it, because you can leave out the private details?!?

    RYossel -“What i believe should of been done is…EN Dispatcher should work with Hatzoloh and announce a birth call on its system. Hatz should be notified to pick up Suri and have members on scene before Suri can arrive. Once Suri arrives she takes over and has Hatzoloh ready for any assistance she requests.”

    That’s nice, but you’re forgetting one thing, EN wanted to work orginally​ with Hatzolah, but they refused!

    2scents -“it is the facts that matter. So far there was nothing that would indicate that transport was delayed, I find it puzzling that you are bashing the personnel that handled that patient without even knowing if there were any wrong doings”

    That’s correct! But go read my previous post – here it is again:
    “Look this topic was started by a guy named “achdus”, let him/her present detailed information about the case, so everyone here can make an​ informed decision!
    Let him/her post transport time, when was the ambulance on the scene, when was it called for. And relate these times with regards to paramedic being called & their care.
    And vitals that were taken on scene.”

    2scents -“There are some instances in which resuscitation would be initiated on the scene, not just if transport was to be delayed for other reasons such as entrapment, this would be up to the providers to decide, the same is when the patient is presented to the ED, they would decide what if any intervention should be done for this patient before sending this patient to the unit that would care for the patient.”

    I’m sure there are cases that are legitimate scenarios that transport can be delayed, but the case above Was Not presented that way!
    I just get the feeling, that you’re just protecting your beloved Hatzolah.

    I got the feeling she could have been transported much earlier than she actually was!

    2scents -” The Hatzalah EMTs and Paramedics have a grassroots response and are usually within close proximity of the call location, which normally means that initial basic and advanced care has been initiated before the ambulance is on location. So the patient gets treated prior to transport without any of the treatment delaying transport.”

    That’s fine.
    But I was posting on this particular case, and it wasn’t presented that way!
    From previous:
    “Needless to say in under a minute a hatzola member was at the door, he right away realized the critical state she was in, he called in for Paramedics. In no time she had 2 paramedics at her side starting IV lines on both of her arms and forcing fluids in to keep the blood pressure from going even lower, and trying to raise it a bit. They quickly whisked her out, etc.”

    2scents -“Rapid transport is without question a high priority, yet there are scenarios in which transport should be delayed for a couple of minutes in order to stabilize the patient.”

    The only one I’ve seen in a lot of EMS books, is when you’re involved in disentanglement (for e/o else – you can’t remove the pt. right away). In this case, it wasn’t presented that way!
    From previous:

    The first priority is TRANSPORT. I’ll repeat my previous post:
    “The treatment in this case, Mr. Hatzolah, is immediate transport. If medics are available, they can start lines enroute to the hospital!”

    2scents -“Health- If indeed the patients systolic blood pressure was below 60 with no distal pulses, this patient is entering irreversible shock and might have multi-organ failure, so yes bilateral IVs would be a vital priority and lifesaving for a positive outcome. Even without MODS there is the concern of metabolic acidosis, lactate acidemia and renal dysfunction, all of this can be prevented/delayed with aggressive fluid resuscitation.
    Besides, having IV access would mean that the patient can be taken into the operating room and the required procedure can be done without delay.
    This is standard stuff”

    What are you talking about? Are talking about pre-hospital care or ER care?
    Standard care in this case, is rapid transport and shock care enroute!
    Do you mean that your Hatzolah didn’t provide standard care?!?

    And btw, even though I understand your medical lingo, because I’m a medical professional, this is a public forum, write – that e/o else can understand!

    I’m very inclined to think the problem is you, not them.”

    The two of you sound like some women – when you don’t like what​ you hear – you resort to personal attacks!
    I came to this thread, not to list all the cases​ which I know or heard about Hatzolah, but to defend EN.

    So you like playing Russian Roulette?!? At least with EMS, there’s the option of a lawsuit when they mess up. But with Hatzolah, if you sue them, they try to get you thrown out of Jewish life!

    “Most of us don’t worship Hatzoloh rather appreciate the amazing lifesaving work they do and don’t like when other people disturb that work in exchange for people that can hardly put on a band aid.”

    Who can’t put on a band-aid – me or EN?
    What you don’t understand, is that people need a choice – either Hatzolah, EN or EMS!
    It’s funny, how YWN allows topics trashing EN, but I doubt if they would allow anyone to start a thread trashing Hatzolah!

    NDG -“This was a suggestion by someone arrogantly referring to himself as a health professional. I would guess that you may be an HHA.”

    IDK why it’s arrogant to refer myself as a health professional?
    I can’t be an HHA, because I don’t know what that is!

    “You also apparently have a beef because Hatzolah did not admit you. Which does not in the least seem surprising.”

    Stop with your lies, to protect your beloved Hatzolah. I did not say that my beef was that they didn’t admit me. You made that up! As a matter of fact, I wrote I didn’t​ blame them because I wasn’t married at that time.

    “You also want to run hatzolah for pay. An organization that has hundreds of people volunteering, but you are soooo good that you would demand pay.”

    You get what you pay for!

    “Thank you for clearing yup for all of us why:
    2) Why you will not tell us what type of health professional you are.”

    Because I’m more than one! And it’s not just EMT & paramedic, like Hatzolah guys.

    “3) Why you do not practice in the health field.”

    Why do I have to explain that to you? Maybe it’s private.
    IMHO, people like you either on Hatzolah or worship them!
