Key ideas in Ontario Paramedic Pharmacology
- ASA inhibits COX-1 to prevent platelets from sticking to an existing clot
- Nitroglycerin primarily causes venodilation, which pools blood in the periphery
- Stopping thrombus propagation maintains what little blood flow remains
- Reducing preload lowers the heart's workload and its demand for oxygen
- Early antiplatelet action is directly linked to lower mortality rates in STEMI
- Systemic venous dilation is more clinically significant than coronary dilation
- The clinical rationale for immediate ASA administration in suspected STEMI
- The primary hemodynamic mechanism of Nitroglycerin in cardiac chest pain
- Salbutamol targets Beta-2 receptors specifically located in bronchial smooth muscle
- Activation of these receptors triggers rapid relaxation of the airway
- Beta-2 stimulation is the mechanism for fast-acting relief in asthma or COPD
- The Six Rights provide a systematic checklist to catch errors before they reach the patient
- Verifying the right dose and route are critical steps after selecting the medication
- Documentation is the final 'right' that completes the clinical administration loop
- The cellular target and result of Salbutamol administration
- The standard sequence of the Six Rights during medication prep

Thirty open tabs. Four facts you actually kept.
You watched. You nodded. By Sunday it was gone.
One answer, then back to scrolling.
Eight weeks. You meant to finish. You didn't.
Tomo gives Ontario Paramedic Pharmacology the Duolingo treatment: levels, streaks, and quick quizzes that test what you just learned. That game loop is what the tabs above never had, so it's the one you actually finish.
Here's what playing it feels like
A real question from this course. Take your best guess.
When you administer ASA in the field, what is the primary cellular target to prevent further clotting?
