Curtis Larson
Extreme agitation, combativeness, and subsequent head trauma (fall)
Curtis Larson, an adult male patient, was brought to the ED following reported alcohol consumption on a golf course. Upon arrival, he became profoundly combative, triggering a 'Code Hula Hoop' (hospital worker assault) after putting a nurse (Emma) in a headlock. During the scuffle, he slipped and sustained blunt head trauma resulting in a bloody nose. He was chemically restrained by another nurse (Dana) using 4mg of Midazolam (Versed) that was on hand.
