It depends on the purpose. For some procedures like setting a dislocated shoulder it's a combination of Fentanyl (a narcotic) and Versed (a benzodiazepine); at other times it's just Propofol which is also a narcotic. For patients suffering from acute chest pain it's not uncommon to administer Morphine because it calms the patient and decreases the pre-load and after-load on the heart. For pure agitation or acute alcohol withdrawal they'll usually administer an IV benzodiazepine such as Ativan or Diazepam. For larger combative patients it's usually impossible to obtain IV access; in that case I recommend a combination of Haldol 10mg, Ativan 2 mg, and Benadryl 50mg IM.

Where to Install Emergency Light Fittings?
When you are installing emergency light fittings around your home or office, you may be at a loss when deciding where exactly you should place your light fittings. After all, there are a number of places that you probably think you'll need light in case of an emergency, so how can you select the best placement? What you need to keep in mind is that you don't need to have lights all around your room to get enough light to that room. If you put your emergency light fittings up high and in a corner, it can easily take one light to illuminate an entire room.
