@lispi314 @rysertio not sure how you can reasonably check saline other than reading a label. -

@rysertio Oh. Honestly that starts sounding like a deliberate suicide attempt.
The minimal competence required to understand the logical consequences of doing it is there, so going ahead with it anyway? -

@lispi314 nope it was a bag of normal saline some idiot decided to put bupivacaine in it and not mark it. -

@rysertio You think one would at least bother to check that it's "normal saline" and not medicated. -

@lispi314 @rysertio its just a bag, so, doesn't seem too particularly controlled https://www.amazon.com/Reusable-1200ML-N-utrition-Gravity-Disposable -

@icedquinn @rysertio Well yes, I was thinking "incompetently grabbed the first thing lying around" since just... buying IV bags isn't exactly an option I think, here. (Nevermind how stupid that is considering how far emergency services can be and how training people to treat basic things locally can be very important.) -

@lispi314 @rysertio i don't think the bag itself is even that important. the needle and drip regulator would be the truly important parts here. (i wouldn't know how to do the drip regulator from jank; i'm certain brewing or piping stores have something equivalent.)
