Fentanyl can be useful to prevent spikes in blood pressure, but you need to give it a few minutes before continuing with the RSI. @EMManchester at #incrementum2025

My @RoyalFlyingDoc Flight Nurse colleague, Pru, took these amazing pictures a few days ago. A traditional RFDS retrieval on the edge of the Simpson Desert at dusk. Retrieval’s like these on cattle station dirt strips, sometimes require emergency run way lightening. Another part of our job that makes it so interesting and unique! ✈️ – at Alice Springs, Northern Territory
