As she waited for the scan results to check for any further injuries, she administered a dose of tissue plasminogen activator and heparin, a very old but still effective treatment for frostbite. “Can you remember what happened sir?” she asked gently, glad that she had the counselor on hand.

Dr Bailey

Finishing her task, Katie put away the gel and ensured her hands were free of any remnants of it. She kept her ear out to listen to the officer’s response to Bailey’s question.

Lt Cmdr Nunn, CNS

Orin barely made out that he was being spoken to. Scans show the usual internal damage associated with short term vacuum exposure.

“I was in a corridor that suddenly filled with light and heat, then dark coldness. I couldn’t breathe and lost consciousness.”

Orin could feel the ship’s distress as structural damage echoed as pain in his own body.

Leaving the actual doctoring to Bailey, Katie hummed sympathetically as she saw the pain reflected in Orin’s eyes. She smiled soothingly and reassuringly commented, “Charlie here will get you fixed up in no time and then we can get you sorting out what’s going on with this ship.” She glanced over at Bailey, hopefully, wishing that her words would be true and he would be able to get back to his post in no time.

Charlie nodded sympathetically as she saw the medication taking effect on Orin. “That we will,” she confirmed with a warm smile as she checked for any further injuries. “How are you feeling Chief? Are you in any pain?” she asked, keeping her eyes fixed on his. She knew that officers often weren’t completely honest when it came to their pain levels but their faces often gave her a better picture.

She took a quick glance over to Michaels to check she was alright and breathed a sigh of relief as she saw her closing up the patient. She had another look round sickbay and noticed that more patients had appeared, she got the feeling it was going to be a very long night.

Orin shook his head.

“Not much of my own, but the ship is in distress.” Orin said quietly.

OOC: We seem to have split the sickbay thread so I’ll continue this bit here

IC: Charlie nodded sympathetically as she put a reassuring hand on Orin’s arm. “I know sir,” she said softly as she checked for any signs of decompression sickness. “We’ll get you out of here as quickly as we can but you’re not going to be any good in this state,” she added in a firmer tone. “Do you have any shortness of breath or a headache?” she asked as she mentally went through a checklist.

OOC: any other injuries etc?

Dr Bailey

Orin shook his head a bit.

“Not much pain after that shot doc. Just echos of the damage the ship has sustained. I do feel a bit drowsy though.”

OOC: The tricorder does pick up mild decompression injuries.

Charlie nodded as she checked the scans. “You will do I’m afraid, you’ve got a mild case of decompression sickness but I can give you something for that,” she replied as she ferretted around in the medical cabinet beside the bed. She quickly mixed together a cocktail of Trioxin, Vertazine & Netinaline to counteract his symptoms and gently pressed it into his neck. “That should make you feel a bit more with it Lt Cmdr,” she said with a sympathetic smile. “It feels a little silly saying it but I should advise you to take it easy for a few days but I’m guessing that’s not going to happen…” she added with a weak grin.

Dr Bailey

“Not with the ship screaming in my head.” Orin replied as he tried to sit up.
