Don't do BLS with arm in sling!
My left arm is mostly in a sling post shoulder surgery, including bone remodeling. Will be like this for about another month. Doing PT. Range of motion only, for now.
Meanwhile, all my resuscitation certs were expiring this month. What's a guy to do? So I did NRP just before the surgery. STABLE just after, but that requires no manual stuff; just class participation. Now BLS, and ACLS next week.
Bad idea! I'm horribly sore from doing compressions on a mannequin and hope I didn't 'do something' to my healing injury. If you don't get it 'just right', the computerized mannequin makes you repeat. I did CPR for 1/2 hour today, adult and infant.
Just kvetching while the chicken is cooking. Yes, my wife is stuck working a full day and we have guests for Shabbat lunch, so I had to cook.
Now wait till you see me chasing the cat with the vacuum cleaner, one-armed!
Shabbat Shalom, y'all. ;D
