TB tests are intra-dermal not sub-Q

[@IdahoMedicalAcademy]

Good catch! Thanks for pointing that out, you are correct on that.

[@DirtyMikeReturnToMonke]

Good video, brushing up on contradictions before the NREMT

PO actually is "per os" or by mouth in latin.

What about Glucagon here in illinois we can give it as emt basic

[@IdahoMedicalAcademy]

Some states will have an expanded scope, but generally Glucagon is considered an AEMT level medication which is why it was not covered in the video.

Thank you so much, am an emt student in uganda. can we give asprine and nitroglycerin to a patient presenting with chest pain

[@IdahoMedicalAcademy]

Thanks for watching all the way from Uganda! Aspirin and Nitroglycerin can both be given together to patients who present with chest pain as long as they do not have any other contraindications for those medications. I am not sure of what the scope of practice for EMT's in Uganda is, so you will need to look at your local protocols to see if you are allowed to give those medications.

Are you guys going to do a respiratory emergencies lecture video?

[@IdahoMedicalAcademy]

Thanks for the comment! Yes, we will at some point. We record the lectures live during classes so that limits when we can get those recorded, but eventually we will have all of the chapters posted.
