[OBSOLETE] Medical Training Minutes

[Reverend]

Starting today with my takeover of the weekly medical training, I will be posting the minutes of each session.

 

8/26

Spoiler

Reverend:

- Do not perform field surgery as you may kill the patient and it wastes valuable time.

- Do not “wing it” when trying to operate; if a senior medic is around, ask for assistance and pass it on to them.

- You do not need to be extensive with a /me but there needs to be detail

- Be quick and short but provide detail

- Ex /me clears the clothes away from the wound, plugging it with celox gauze and covering it with regular guaze applying a local anesthetic in the process.

- Do not argue about petty stuff as it will look bad for the detachment as a whole

- Article Six must be done this way; treating medic and another medic must agree they have no chance of survival, or attending medic and drop lead with some medical knowledge.

 

Questions:

Q: TSgt. Alastair 'Taco' Takugawa yells: ''You have a patient who has a received a laceration to their abdomen; it isn't too deep, but it's fairly long in length and is a bit on the wider side. No organs or anythin' are fallin' out someway somehow, and the patient is clutching at their abdomen in pain.''

A: 3Spc. Alexander Strauss says, "Apply celox gauze, bandages, and possibly painkillers or a sedative. Also check the patient's vitals."

 

Q: TSgt. Alastair 'Taco' Takugawa yells: ''Anybody but Strauss, answer the next question. You have a patient who is currently suffering from a gunshot wound to their right arm, and another gunshot wound to their right shoulder. What would you do?''

A: 3Spc. Astrid Hellström says, "Determine which is the more life threatning wound to being treatment. Yould would then pack with celox and dress with bandaging? "

 

Q: TSgt. Alastair 'Taco' Takugawa yells: ''Anybody but the previous two medics, answer the following: A patient has an arm, up to their left elbow, and has also received some shrapnel which is littered across their body but is not severe. There is a senior medic on duty, and you are a Third Specialist, what would you do?''

A: 3Spc. Anthony Chen says, "First I would get a tourniquet on their arm, and call for the senior medic due to the wounds being extensive, once he arrives I would either help him or move to other wounded. Depending on what he wants me to do."

TSgt. Alastair 'Taco' Takugawa says, "Is there any other reason that you'd call the senior medic aside from extensive injury?"

TSgt. Alastair 'Taco' Takugawa says, "Big hint is that you're a Third Specialist."

3Spc. Anthony Chen says, "I wouldn't have the proper training to do anything with them."

 

Q: TSgt. Alastair 'Taco' Takugawa yells: ''So, McKnight, since you've just arrived, I have a question f'er y'eh. One of y'er comrades jus' got hit hard with a grenade, the explosion having caught them off-guard from a distance away. They're not horribly gored and dismembered, but they've received both large and small shrapnel injuries to their body.''

A: 3Spc. Chase McKnight says: “Remove the smaller shrapnel that will not cause more bleeding and then secure the larger shrapnel.” (Paraphrased)

 

Q: If you know someone isn’t going to make it what do you do?

A: Tell the drop lead they are not going to make it and suggest an A6, only if attending medic and another medic confirm, if one either have the drop lead confirm if they have medical knowledge or leave it to them to handle. OR make them comfortable and move on to other wounded.
