He was working in his local ED recently and got a chance to assist with an intubation of a drug overdose patient who came in with a need for airway management. The hospital had just gotten a Glidescope in and the doc used it to place the tube. Check out MacMedic’s post for a great review of the Glidescope with pros and cons listed. I picked the Glidescope Ranger for one of my Expo picks and I’ll be interested to hear any impressions from the live audience about that and the other products we have chosen this year.

A rather shocking story caught my eye this week. It has to do with a Florida EMT/Firefighter who is suing an elderly patient for injuries suffered while arriving at the patient’s residence for a call for aid. The responder is saying that 18,000 dollars worth of injury was caused by the patient. More on this in the MedicCast News podcast. —————————— I report on this and other EMS news in the most recent episode of the MedicCast News at the Podcaster News Network. Jamie May 5, 2008 @ 9:35 am

Check out this article from Medical News Today. This article cites the increased costs involved partly related to the three functions of the device.
But the author points out that only one of these really has to do with the taking of the picture, the imaging process itself. The two other functions could be taken care of by other methods. The average cell phone out there possesses the ability to receive, transmit, and store images as well as display images. The cost of these machines could be greatly decreased by using a standardized interface that would allow any cell phone to upload, download, or display the images taken remotely. This could change the way rural or remote medicine is handled with a central doctor or specialist reading the images and determining the urgency of a given medical problem.
