What is dorsal
400
Signs of organophosphate toxicity include all of the following except A. Salivation B. Lacrimation C. Dyspnea D. Dilated pupils
What is dilated pupils (organophosphate toxicity creates miosis which is constricted pupils)

Administer Furosemide IM, then place the patient in an O2 cage C. Swing the patient to remove as much fluid as possible from the airway, then initiate cardiopulmonary resuscitation D. Prepare the patient for immediate tracheostomy
What is Swing the patient to remove as much fluid as possible from the airway, then initiate cardiopulmonary resuscitation (patient is in cardiopulmonary arrest. The airway should be cleared of secretions before instituting other resuscitation measures)
