"I think I do," mumbled a nurse distractedly as she charted.
"She's seizing."
That's certainly one way to jolt people into action. I ran with the nurse over to radiology, while another nurse hustled over to the Pyxis to grab meds. We found her unresponsive by the time we arrived, and I bagged her as we rushed her back to the trauma bay. After a slightly frenzied couple of minutes we had her intubated, placed on a portable monitor, and back on her way to the scanner. Turned out she had a massive bleed in her brain.
Never a dull moment.
