passing out
I have a patient that passes out from needles and hearing medical injuries. Do you have any suggestions of what I can do to help him through his treatment?

Have him sniff on a Vitamin-A (ammonia) ampule as soon as he starts to feel vertigo.

I think you are looking at this the wrong way...

Passing out is a primal defense mechanism. If they pass out after you inject them, let them sleep! If they're still breathing then they are fine, and you're fine. I love it when my patient passes out...
