Hydrocodone-Acetaminophen This combination medication is used to relieve moderate to severe pain. It contains a narcotic pain reliever (hydrocodone) and a non-narcotic pain reliever (acetaminophen). Hydrocodone works in the brain to change how your body feels and responds to pain. Acetaminophen can also reduce a fever. Drugs Similar to Hydrocodone – These drugs belong to a class of drugs known as narcotic (opiate) analgesics. Narcotic analgesics are drugs that relieve pain, can cause numbness and induce a state of unconsciousness. *Fentanyl *Hydromorphone (Norco, Vicodin) *Morphine (Dilaudid) *Oxycodone ( Oxycontin, Percocet) **Patient Allergies – If your patient has a reaction to any of the above the next drug is a good substitute.** Tramadol-Acetaminophen This product is used to treat moderate to moderately severe pain. It contains 2 medications: Tramadol and acetaminophen. Tramadol is similar to narcotic analgesics. It works in the brain to change how your body feels and responds to pain. Acetaminophen is used to relieve pain, and it can also reduce a fever. Tramadol is also known as Ultram and non-narcotic.

Please keep in mind that everything collected should be bagged and marked for evidence. Rape patients are victims of trauma and may need to be mildly sedated. Step 1: Collecting Clothing || Collect clothing worn during the assault: underwear and outer clothing. If the victim has changed, the original set of clothing should be put in a paper bag. If the victim has not changed, an extra set of clothing should be brought to the hospital. Step 2: Collecting Debris || Collect debris found on the victim, such as dirt, hair and other foreign objects. Step 3: Fingernails || Collect fingernail samples from the left and right hands. A wooden scraper is used to extract any residue under the nail. Clippings of the nails are also taken. Step 4: Hair Samples || Collect hair samples from the victim’s head. Four hairs each are taken from the front, back, center, right side and left side of the head. While pulled hair is preferred for evidence collection, cut hair is also acceptable if the cut is done close to the scalp. Step 5: Oral Swab || Swab the victim’s gum line and the inside of the cheek with two swabs; the swabs should not be moistened before use. These two swabs are smeared onto glass slides. The process is repeated with two more swabs, except the last two samples are not transferred to slides. Step 6: Saliva Sample || Collect a saliva sample from the victim. A filter paper disk is folded, […]

1. Make sure the bleeding has stopped. You don’t want your patient bleeding out on you before you have a chance to stitch them up. 2. Numb the wound by applying the area with gel or cream or by giving a small shot of anesthetic, so they don’t feel pain. 3. Clean the wound with sterile water, which is squirted into the cut to remove any dirt and wash away harmful germs. If needed, use tweezers to remove any debris that the water can’t flush out on its own. 4. After it is cleaned, apply a disinfectant or antiseptic (e.g. betadine) to the center and edges of the wound. This will help prevent infection. 5. Using a very tiny sterile needle, sew the cut together and the suture (like a thread) will pull the edges of the wound closer to each other. 6. Once the stitch is finished, the wound will be covered with a sterile bandage and should be kept dry for 1 to 2 days. 7. A pain medication such as percocet can be prescribed for a few days for pain, depending on the injury and the amount of stitches required.

These are Standard Physical Exam Procedures, but please feel free to edit them according to your own rp style. This is just a guideline for assistance. 1. History || This is your chance to ask the patient about any complaints or concerns about their health. You quiz them about important behaviors, like smoking, excessive alcohol use, sexual health, diet, and exercise. You can also check on their vaccination status and update their personal and family medical history. 2. Vital Signs || These are some vital signs checked: Blood pressure: less than 120 over 80 is a normal blood pressure. Doctors define high blood pressure (hypertension) as 140 over 90 or higher.

Breathing more than 20 times per minute can suggest heart or lung problems. Temperature: 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit is the average, but healthy people can have resting temperatures slightly higher or lower. 3. General Appearance || Your can gather a large amount of information about them and their health just by watching and talking to them. How is your memory and mental quickness? Does your skin appear healthy? Can you easily stand and walk? 4. Heart Exam || Listening to their heart with a stethoscope, a doctor might detect an irregular heartbeat, a heart murmur, or other clues to heart disease. 5. Lung Exam || Using a stethoscope, listen for crackles, wheezes, or decreased […]

1. It’s a good idea to IM your patient and find out exactly what their injuries are and how badly they would like for you to rp them. 2. Make sure your patient is breathing fine. If they aren’t, RP hooking them up to an oxygen mask or if not breathing a ventilator. 3. Vital signs should always be checked. These include heart rate, breathing, blood pressure and temperature. 4. If your patient has lost a lot of blood, make sure you get them a transfusion. If you don’t know their blood type O- is universal. 5. If a patient is in severe pain, order an IV drip of Morphine and Saline. This will help with the pain as well as keep them hydrated. 6. Use NPC nurses if it’s just you and the patient, and you need someone to do the footwork. 7. If you need to operate on a patient, make sure you “knock” them out first. When operating on a patient they should always be hooked up to some sort of vitals sign monitor, oxygen, blood transfusion, saline drip mixed with an anesthetic to keep them under and a pain medication.
