Show Notes
In this "intoxicating" episode of HNTKYP, Kevin McFarlane and Dr. Lisa Wolf explore the challenges of triaging intoxicated patients in the emergency department. They emphasize that managing intoxicated patients is far more complex than often perceived. The discussion includes intoxication as either a primary issue or a secondary complication, the pitfalls of anchoring bias, and the poor correlation between blood alcohol level (BAL) and the behaviors exhibited by the patient. Grab a beer, sit back, and enjoy this episode—unless you're driving, of course. This episode pairs well with these other great episodes HNTKYP-Behavioral-Health
