ED Hack: Lipid Rescue Made Simple

Ever heard of LAST? It’s a rare but scary complication from nerve blocks in the ER, and the antidote is intralipid (yep, fat emulsion!). Docs at Highland Hospital just rolled out a super simple 'Open-Pull-Push' protocol: open the kit, pull up the lipid, push it fast. They keep everything ready to go in a block cart, and even run practice drills. Love seeing real-world hacks that make emergencies less chaotic! #EmergencyMedicine #PatientSafety #MedTwitter #NerveBlocks #Intralipid #Health
