Rapid opioid detox, like the one Ross is performing on the baby, are not done with naloxone (Narcan), naltrexone is used. Both naloxone and naltrexone are full opioid antagonists, meaning they remove opioid molecules from receptors reversing their effects, but they have different potency and duration. Naloxone is short acting, it lasts for 30 minutes to an hour usually, it is used to treat acute overdose, but it does not reverse opioid tolerance. Naltrexone on the other hand is a longer acting, more potent antagonist, when given intravenously it can last for up to 12 hours; in addition to reversing the effects of opioids a high dose, rapid infusion of naltrexone also strips away the extra opioid receptors created by long-term opioid use, this allows the patient to be fully detoxed within 12 hours, whereas it would normally take 7-14 days. It only eliminates the physical symptoms of withdrawal, it does not do anything for the psychological cravings and other symptoms, it is not the quick fix some believe it to be, relapses are common.
When the young girl comes into the ER with trauma to her right eye, you see that it is covered with a paper cup. Where there is trauma to one eye that needs to be covered to prevent eye movement to avoid possible further injury to that eye, both eyes need to be covered as both eyes move together.
Carter states one of the reasons he doesn't believe the boy was suffering from cyanide poisoning is because there is no smell of almonds. Cyanide does not cause a person to smell of almonds if they have poisoned with it, only the chemical itself has the smell. Also roughly one third of the population cannot detect the odor of cyanide, for both reasons smell is not used as a diagnostic measure.
