How do I know if he is reblocking?

Well, I suppose it's a waste of time to people who read it and aren't interested, but it's quite easy to mark a thread as read. I did find your post with the link quite interesting. And the thread allowed me to see that -tension is someone who can stand up for their beliefs even when they catch flack for it. Oh yah, and be civil at the same time -- a lost art on uesenet, I'll admit. Rhonda |

I'm asking because Tension is an ER doc and I wonder what he thinks of the ER care that went down in that hospital? Should they not have suspected drug poisoning and given an antidote, not much danger if useless, rather than watching the young guy die? Check his eyeballs, if pinpoints, then assume drug overdose in an otherwise very healthy young person. I doubt they have the malpractice rules in the Bahamas so not much danger there. When you read a story in the media, you are only getting very little information. I'm sure the ER docs there did what was required and necessary at the time. Unless a doctor is actually there, he is not going to know the facts and circumstances. Asking Tension, just because he's a physician, is kinda ridiculous, don't you think? But then again.... How can you be so sure of the ER care in the Bahamas, and that particular hospital? Are you serious or just making waves? In any event, the two cases I mentioned - the people died because an antidote was not given. There's no doubt about that. That is a sure clue that nothing intelligent was done. You don't think death is a good sign of competent care? The operation was a success but the patient died? Tension is an emergency doc so I was asking about a narcotic antogonist when you have someone who is going to die before any blood tests can come back. A tough decision but one that has to be made in narcotic overdoses. This is a question you can ask of any ER doc because it's a good one. I have also seen extraordinarily incompetent care in very highly rated hospitals in the ER. One place, with a world famous reputation, took a gun shot wound and left the victim unattended for 45 minutes. I was there in the ER and saw that happen. That was an eye opener. And then I saw an ER doc tell the family, who could not see what was happening, everything is okay, don't worry. Yeah, right. My friend was the night supervisor at this hospital and we discussed later what went down and why the care was negligent. It's kind of a funny story except for the young fellow who got shot. |
