i am pm shift today...
so as usual...
i slept in abit later...

went to work with the word "TIRED" written all over my face...

then was kanan pull to do one MCQ test by my Sister...

then got one question:
A 3 yrs old boy was brought into ur triage with a temperature of 39.5°C.
Other vitals were stable. Mummy given paracetamol 30 mins ago when the temperature was 40°C.
How would u categorise the patient?

a) Send in as a "9" case.
b) Order Ibrufen
c) order tepid sponging
d) i forget wats this answer liao...

anyway, i chose the answer C.
but the correct answer is A!!!!

i dun understand why would ppl wana send in as a '9' lohz!!!
i mean although child is running a fever,
yahz...
but already given paracetamol 30 mins ago wat!!
and obviously the meds is working!!
if not the fever would be going up instead of coming down lohz!!
anyway if u send in as a '9' case,
the Doctors will still only order tepid sponging for the child!!
bcoz paracet is juz given 30 mins ago..
not advisable to give brufen oso wat!!!
anyway, our triage "9"case guideline is any child <3yrs>39.5°C lehz!!!
not ≥ 39.5°C lehz!!!

kaoz!!!

and wats the diff from me ordering the tepid sponging!!
the most i will cat 2 the child and rest in obs 2 till consultation!!!
juz in case if u scare the child will fit!!!

siao one lehz!!!

now i know why our queue is always not moving...
and why all docs hate to see "9" cases!!!
bcoz some of it is this kinda rubish lohz!!!

and today kanan pissed by this stupid dr!!

he wanna do a procedure...
call TREPHINATION!!!

then me and ziying was like huh!!! wat the hell is TREPHINATION??!!

then he tell me...
"erm..juz to trephinate to release a haematoma on the nail lohz!!"

kaoz!!!

u make me sound like an idiot lohz!!!

oki!!!
i am sorry!!!
although i am juz back from my advance dip,
but i really didnt heard of that before lohz!!!

bascially its juz poking a small hole on the nail to release the haematoma underneath the nail!!!

thats it!!!!!!!!

need to give such a chim term or not!!

KI SIAO ONE LEHZ!!!

this doc is really fucking irritating!!!

i heard from ziying that he will even act cute lohz!!!

OMG!!

imagine a guy pulling his ears and say sorry (in a act cute tone of voice) to u!!!!

WAH LAN!!!

i will vomit bld!!!

anyway,
enough of venting...

i am tired...
tml is morning shift...

gonna wash up and sleep...
