This is Joseph Smith. He is 19-years old with no medical history except a fractured leg as a teenager. He is not on any meds. He does construction and does not have insurance. When we got on scene his house was fully involved with fire and he was outside laying in the grass. He told the cops that he was experimenting with explosives. We quickly loaded him and brought him. The only thing I did was start an IV and get VS. I have not calculated his fluid needs yet. He is obviously tachy and having a lot of pain. He told me it was an 8 out of 10, so I gave him 4mg IVP of Morphine, and it helped a little. I put him on 2L of O2 as well. From the quick assessment we did, it appears he has second and third degree burns on his arms and chest. I’m also concerned about airway and lungs down the road as he has soot in his nose and mouth so he probably inhaled a lot of smoke.”
