Thanks Okie! Makes sense re: the osmotic effect of Dextran. Would never, never, never use it for rehydration. Still think that its a better choice in acute blood loss than say NS alone. But I may be wrong. Would love to see the evidence. Until then its D10W for me.
Thanks too for the info on Narcan. My guess you see a lot of OD in CONUS civilian EMT work. Not so much on SF teams and MGTs in RVN
Mostly acute lead poisoning
