Lisa reports on several different classes of synthetic drugs of abuse including synthetic marijuana products are often sold as herbal incense under brands such as K2, Spice, Mr. Nice Guy, and many others. (http://www.nursingshow.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/teen-pills1-150x150.jpg)She also brings us an update on “Bath salts," the disguise given to products that contain synthetic drugs sold for their stimulant effect. They are not the same as the bath salts you buy in a store for your bath. Just like the synthetic marijuana products, they are sold over the internet, in head shops and other small stores. In addition to older synthetics, Lisa reports on 2 C-E, bromo dragonfly, and Methoxetamine. 2 C-E is a synthetic drug that is usually snorted to produce hallucinations; the effects are similar to LSD. It also has stimulant-like effects: tachycardia, agitation, hyperthermia, seizures and death can occur. Bromo-dragonfly or just "dragonfly" is a synthetic drug that has been used in Europe but seems to have made its way across the ocean to the U.S. It is a potent hallucinogen with a long duration of action. Seizures, as well as intense vasoconstriction and limb ischemia. Methoxetamine is also relatively new with only a few cases reported in the literature. The drug is similar to Ketamine. More information with be forth coming on this new synthetic drug and others like it. New synthetics are being created all of the time, faster than the laws can keep up with them. There is a Federal Analog Act that focuses on drugs that are only slightly changed from an illegal form but many synthetics don't meet the strict requirements of the law.

She is interviewed by Chris Montera (a.k.a. the "Geeky Medic"), host of the EMS Garage Podcast. Stephanie was recognized by the EMS 10 Innovator awards for her work educating both hospital and pre-hospital staff in the Denver, Colorado area about the specific presentation and needs of pediatric stroke patients. The EMS 10 Awards are put on by JEMS magazine and the EMS Today Conference along with generous sponsorship by Physio-Control, Inc. Nurses find themselves influencing health care in their communities in so many ways but it starts by recognizing a need. Stephanie saw that need in her area and realized that education was the key since many don't think "pediatrics" when they think "stroke." Her program has been used to educate EMS providers all over the Denver metro area and is being modeled in other locations around the country.

Does this settlement raise a risk of an impossible standard for preparedness for our hospitals and community health facilities? Matt and Rick join Nursing Show host Jamie Davis as they shift the conversation into a broader look at preparedness beyond the Katrina incidents and aftermath. What is your preparedness level and how well do you know how your facility's response plan? This is one of the lessons to be learned by the individual nurse out there. A lot of difficult decisions about patient care have to be made during any extreme disaster event. Holding a normal standard of care against care givers when resources are severely compromised or reduced is impractical at best and ridiculous at worst.  Listen to this week's discussion and you can also catch last week's discussion as part 1 of our Discussion on Katrina Hospital Lawsuit Settlement (http://www.nursingshow.com/?p=4629).

During the time of hurricane Katrina, Memorial Medical Center in New Orleans was out of power, running water and temperature rose to 100 degrees. Reports of inadequate triage processes for evacuation and lack or leadership quickly followed. Eventually, forty-five bodies were found in the devastated health center during recovery efforts. Physician Anna Pou together with two other nurses allegedly "hastened" the patients' deaths by injecting them with lethal doses of morphine. Pou defended herself by saying she merely helped the patients through their pain and holds that stand up until now. A recent court decision required the institution to pay an amount of $25 million to the individuals who took shelter at that hospital and sustained injuries and died. This decision was based upon the lack of preparedness of the hospital for such disasters and its failure to operate in a highly emergent situation.
