@mjslabbert is it inappropriate to also assume he does a CAT scan too?

@broomedocs CIN defined as creat increase of 25% in 2-6 days. Is that clinically significant if it returns to normal after this?

@LavergneNatalie I assume you mean as soon as they find out they are pregnant. Do they move to ground EMS or do they do other duties?

@ketaminh my friend's service has their first pregnant flight medic and they are curious what other HEMS do for both patient and crew safety
English
HEMS colleagues, I was asked by a friend about my service's policy for pregnant air medical crew. Can anyone else share theirs if allowed?

@mjslabbert @ali1m @doctorwibble I teach ATLS as it's useful for new trainees and occasional providers in rural areas. Not for experts.

@FLTDOC1 I go with "are you family of friend?" No one gets upset with those two options.
English
@FLTDOC1 I agree. You in the US need to work on the airline deregulation law nonsense.

@FLTDOC1 @willtube4food Also if you had less redundant coverage with HEMS this numbers issue wouldn't be relevant as they would exceed it.
