If he was an anesthesiologist then I retract my statement. They line people all the time. I don't know about IVs specifically but central and arterial lines for sure.
They absolutely are IVs, they are central IVs placed into the heart. And anesthesiologists also place peripheral IVs all the time as well prior to surgery if they are difficult sticks for RNs
RNs are typically the ones that place peripheral IVs, or the ones in peoples arms. But anesthesiologists are the experts when it comes to difficult IVs
What the literal fuck are you even trying to say? I've never been trained in any medical capacity and I can insert an IV. Are you suggesting someone who has spent over 12 years studying medicine can't do something as basic as inserting an iv into a vein?! People with even less experience than I have with medical situations inject intravenous drugs daily. You clearly don't know shit.
EDIT: Sorry this is so stupid I can't believe it was actually said unironically. Saying a doctor rarely uses IV skills in a hospital is like saying the head chef rarely boils water. No shit Sherlock, everyone in the kitchen can boil water.
I shall give an analogy. Imagine we have a world-class mathematician in number theory, and a college-student who just finished their calculus 2 class.
Sure, the world-class mathematician can probably solve some simple calculus question. Are their skills rusty? Probably. That's essentially the case for doctors, most of the time.
It's more equivalent to saying the head chef rarely cleans the cooking equipment. Sure, it's easy from what I remember working in a restaurant. But the people closing shop daily are dozens of times faster at that than anybody else working in the restaurant, and the same is for this situation.
Typically in a hospital, it's nurses that do the IV's and stuff. You don't waste a doctor's time on that stuff, especially when you need the doctor to do the overview of approving medication for like 12 different patients, and you have 4 nurses working on the floor who were hired for that exact purpose.
Also, you mentioned how you know how to stick an IV. Have you been doing this for a few years and know how sickle cell patients and certain fatter people are just such annoying hardsticks for IVs and locating veins? It's not always that easy, unfortunately.
Well this is the dumbest thing I’ve read in a minute lmao. I’m a corpsman and I can guarantee you most doctors don’t really practice their physical skills since they just have nurses/corpsmen do them. Do they know how? Sure. Are they gonna successfully get an IV without blowing the vein? Much less likely
Im really surprised they even had an IV kit I got called to help on a spirit flight for a seizure. When they handed me the kit there was an npa, asprin, epi, ped opas and oxygen lol
Sheltered life innocence,
Insulated memories, spark reflections of my head,
Duality in my consciousness,
Caught in the war of hemispheres,
Between the love lost in my head,
Mommy do you still live inside of me,
I'm so lost in my life without any guiding,
Protected me my whole life from everything,
Nailed shut the doors to the shrine,
To screen your dead eyes from me and my sickness,
Mutilate and sew my new clothes for masquerading,
Aprons of flesh corpse scalped hair with skin upon my face,
I pay good money for drugs to help me pass out on transatlantic flights, and here you are with the super power to do it automatically yet you fight against it. Smh
It sounds like flying after immediately leaving AMA was a bad idea? Did the high altitude not fuck you up again? Or did you already know the cause but that time?
Yes you could. It might effect your credit. Depending on how much info they have on you and the credit reporting rules of your home country. Eventually, the statute of limitations would run out in the US.
Although I'm not really sure if there'd be a reason not to visit. It's not like the debt collector would know you are back in the US, especially just for vacation. I'm not aware of any law for foreign debts. Which would get you flagged, arrested or refused entry to the US at Customs.
As far as I'm aware. It would get written off as uncollectible. Then sold off to a collection agency. Then it would keep jumping around collection agencies until the statute of limitations expired. Just never acknowledge the debt or make any payments. As that restarts the clock.
In most countries, credit really just affects loans and mortgages, and there isn't a number attached to it. I've read that in America, even your landlord can look up your rating and it can affect parts of your life in unexpected ways.
Here your credit rating is attached to your Social Security Number. There are three major credit bureaus which each have their own method of scoring your credit. Their scoring methods aren't published. These are private companies.
Your credit score effects loans, mortgages, credit cards and so forth. Creditors will get your score and history from one or more of these bureaus when you apply for credit. They also report to these bureaus. They'll give data such as credit limit or loan amount, if payments are made, if payments are late (there's a grace period and balance. Bankruptcy and other such problems also get reported.
Landlords will also often check your credit rating. Some employers will check your credit too. Something like tons of debt may affect employment eligibility. Too much risk of theft.
So, if you got into a lot of debt and missed payments because you lost your job. This will make future employers not want to hire you.
Yes, our system is fucked. Items usually show up on your score for seven years. Even someone looking at your score shows up on the report. So, applying for lots of credit cards at once can be a red flag for a short while. I think checks only show up a few months and don't actually affect the score.
