05x16 - Telling Her Goodbye

[bunniefuu]

Morning, Maggie.

I heard there might be a job opening up for a nurse.

Let me check.

Uh-uh. Must have been filled.

Kelly, there is someone to see you.

Came all the way up here to check on me?

I heard about this opening for a pediatric nurse.

You're the one who took the job at Med.

Yeah.

Oh, that's it? No eggs? No sausage?

Nah. Cindy got it in her head that we should try Ethiopian last night.

"Expand our horizons," she says.

She expanded something, all right, something inside my gut.

Keep an eye on that.

Indigestion's one of the first signs of heart failure.

Relax, Doctor Oz. I'm fit as a fiddle, okay?

Dawson, I'm right, aren't I? Back me up.

Cold sweats? Shortness of breath?

No.

Well, it was a good surprise.

Glad she's back.

Yeah, she's good for you, Kelly.

Like it or not, I'm rooting for this.

Don't you have a floor to mop or something?

Oh, Whatever. Listen, I'm just saying, I'm rooting for it.

Hey, Kidd?

Okay. Yeah.

Got a job for you when you're done.

Pneumothorax?

Okay. Uh, uh, am I just gonna punch into the guy with this?

No, no, no, you're not gonna punch into anything.

You're gonna insert the needle in between the second intercostal space, just above the third rib at the midclavicular line.

Mid-what?

Midpoint on the clavicle, it's between the sternum and shoulder.

Can you find it?

Yes, I think so.

When you're ready, you're gonna insert the needle at a 90-degree angle into the chest, okay?

Once the angiocath is in, you're gonna pull out the needle and you're gonna hear a hiss of air.
