Great information

[@robertgreen4464]

Great video as always! I use a flush and a three way stopcock and it works great. Dopamine needs to go away completely

[@Atonement46]

I like using a needle!
I see dopamine less and less on the trucks.

Great info btw.

[@jamiedanieltaylor]

Can you use 1:1000 be same right

[@DTraylor]

As far as for RSI, you could always induce with ketamine to prevent hypotension post induction.

I keep seeing 10:1 concentration…
Why not make 1:1? Inject 1:1000 epi into a L bag. You now have 1mL:1mcg. This makes it easy to measure for peds doses, start a drip, and you have 100 10mcg pushes you can draw up very quickly.
This takes no thought process and leaves little room for a mistake.

[@ryanpetsche8924]

Even your pump settings are easy. 60ml/hr=1mcg/min.
Not to mention it’s an even safer concentration in case of infiltration

1:1,000 epi into a 1,000 mL bag?

[@Craigccrncen]

Not best example. Should have compared it to norepinephrine or metro. Second NEVER mix in labeled flush or in bristoject. Always mix in clean syringe that has one labeled.
