Perfect for vagina AND nose bleeds.

And gunshots

And gunshots

Usually use Foley catheters for those. At least in the ER.

 

[Che Boludo]

They work in a pinch.
Practice used to be more common before first aid packs evolved to become more complete individual first aid kits (ifak - typical creative naming). Plus, medics equipped with quik-clot is pretty effective.
However, one of the nice things about integrating women into combat arms is that it might help augment available treatment options in mass casualty situations. ; )

24 french.

That's HUUUUGE.

 

[It Takes Eleven]

That's HUUUUGE.

Used those post-op when prostates getting roto-rootered. I guess 18's are more typical for a foley, right. Non-foley straights were usually 15's or so. Damn, it's been almost 30 years since I worked in surgery, or at a hospital in general. Great experience, though - I learned the one thing everyone should know: never go to a hospital unless you're really sick.

I only use 24s when I'm irritating a bladder. 16-18F for typical foley.
Problem today and has been for some time is that people treat the ER like a free clinic.

Been that way for some time, we'd get drug seekers at 3am in the ER, "my stomach hurts". me: "how long's it been hurtin'?" they: "three weeks".

I was pre-med for several years, and worked at Shelby Medical Center (formerly Shelby Memorial, now Shelby Baptist) in Alabaster. Our best customers came over from a pool hall in Damper Bottom on Hwy 11 (it turns into Simmsville Road and makes its way to Chelsea) where knife fights and pool cue injuries were frequent. We had a guy come in pretty sliced up and put him in one of our four trauma beds (each divided by just a curtain). About 45 minutes later, another guy with a nice mix of pool cue and knife indiscretions appeared and the nurse put him in the trauma bed next to our first guy. When she started taking vitals and talking to the guy, guest #1 realized his foe was right next door and they went right back at it.

How long ago did you work there at Shelby @It Takes Eleven ? Both of my kids were born there!

Sounds about right.
I had a trauma the other night. Shot in the back of the head execution style. 90 minutes later, after a round of CPR and epinephrine bc he was asystolic he WALKED out of the ER. I told him, "Damn you're lucky to be alive!!"
He said, "Yeah. The motherfucker that did this is gonna get his!"

I gave him his discharge papers and said, "See you soon."

January 1984 to June 1987. Your kids are much younger than that. If I remember correctly, Shelby had not re-started delivering babies at that time. I started my freshman year at Montevallo and after I switched from pre-med to business in my junior year, I kept working there because it paid well for a college student and the hours were flexible. I could work two doubles on weekends and get paid for 40 hours, and I had time to work construction summers and on open days in my schedule. For a college kid, it was a great experience working in an environment where communication mattered (and what happened when it wasn't good) and where I witnessed important things. At Shelby, the orderly was part of the code team, responsible for chest compressions. Watching professionals in life or death situations had an impact on me. Initially, I thought they were flippant in the way they handled these situations, but then I realized they were being professional in not getting caught up in the moment. That lesson has served me well.

Problem would mostly disappear with free preventive treatment. Poor/uninsured people don't get treatment until it's really bad and the ER has to treat them in emergencies. Costs more for everyone in the long run.

No it wouldn't.
One of the many problems with healthcare is that more and more the patient demands specific treatment and the Doctors appease them bc hospitals are reimbursed according to fucking surveys administered by the govt.

And there's nothing free in the world. Poor people use the ER as a clinic. They're not going to pay the bill anyway. And I'm not talking about really sick people that "have waited until it's too late". I'm talking about idiots that actually think the ER is free.

Get patients all the time for shit like dental pain and Rx refills. Most of them when asked why they came to the ER for that answer "I don't wanna pay the co-pay at my Dr's" or "I don't have any money", completely oblivious and I mean oblivious of what an ER visit costs or that it costs at all.

 

[Gideon Swashbuckler]

You're proving my point that if we had free preventive care like all other civilized countries, they don't feel compelled to the ER.

Right. So instead of taxpayers paying for it in the ER we pay for it in "Preventive Clinics".

Pretty dumb idea.

And what's civilized about socialized health care?? Anyone that knows anything about it scoffs at the idea.

I'll tell you what. Why don't you next time you're injured fly to one of these civilized countries and tell me how that works out for you.
