1. Time for some Emergency! trivia!

What did the doctor ALWAYS say to give the patient over the radio... Even before they'd
said what was wrong with them?

[Hugin]

3. Answer...

"Administer two-amp sodium bicarb, insert an airway. Start an IV, 51. Lactate Ringer's."

[texas1928]

7. Actually that is the opening credits.

opening credits]
Dispatcher: Squad 51, informant reports toxic chemicals in the tanker, use caution.
Dr. Kelly Brackett: Squad 51, this is Rampart. Can you send us some EKG?
John Gage: Ten-four, we're transmitting EKG. We're sending you a strip. Vitals to follow. Pulse is 160, the victim is in extreme pain, Rampart. V-fib!
Paramedic Roy DeSoto: Patient is in V-fib! Rampart, we have lost the victim's pulse, beginning CPR. We're defibrialing victim, Rampart. Rampart, we have defibrilated victim, he has sinus rhythm.
Joe Early: Administer two-amp sodium bicarb, insert an airway. Start an IV, 51. Lactate Ringer's.
Dixie McCall: Squad 51, continue to monitor patient and transport immediately.
John Gage: We're on our way, Rampart.

8. Actually found the Quote...

Dr. Kelly Brackett: Start an IV, 51...D5W TKO!

4. Either D5W

or Lactate Ringer's

6. Jinx on the answer!

Lactate Ringers!

Actually, I think it was to start a drip.

9. Cool! Love that show

Also glad that Adam-12, another of my faves, is out on DVD.

[texas1928]

10. I never could get into Adam 12.

But Emergency! made me want to be a fireman.

[flamingyouth]

11. I loved Adam-12 when I was really little

"One Adam-12, one Adam-12, see the man..." :D I was really little when it was on. :D

But Emergency! was awesome! One of my very favorite shows as a kid. :D

Two things....

Love how the guys down flinch when that stuff blows up behind them and

I'd forgotten Bobby Troup was on there. He wrote "Route 66" and was a pretty solid jazzer.

:hi:

[texas1928]

13. Bobby Troup was a great doctor on there.

And I could make the alarm sound at the beginning perfectly as a kid. I used to make my dad pull off to the side of the road by imitating the Squad.

15. Have you ever heard her sing?

Ooooh. Baby.

16. Well she would be 81 this year.

But sadly she passed in 2000.

[OrangeCountyDemocrat]

17. Yeah...Just Looked Her Up

She was one fine looking lady. She was in her late 40's/early 50's on Emergency.
