VictorPride: Formaldehyde preserves

This guide will primarily be useful for [[Chemist|chemists]] but may come in handy to any player and especially [[Traitor|traitors]].

= Chemicals =
The building blocks of chemistry are aluminium, bromine, carbon, chlorine, copper, ethanol, fluorine, hydrogen, iodine, iron, lithium, mercury, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, potassium, radium, silicon, silver, sodium, stable plasma, sugar, sulphur, sulphuric acid, water and welding fuel. These can be produced from the [[Chem Dispenser]] in [[Chemistry]].

You have all sorts of things here, and can make so much. You can make medicines, foam, flash powder, poisons, space lube, window hardener, and so much more. The limit on combinations is a limit that exists only in your creativity (and the game engine). Be sure to be careful though, mixing the wrong chemicals can be bad for your health and please make sure you know what a chemical does before you use it. Experiment at your own risk.

Some pure chemicals are lethal or will cause heavy toxin damage if injected or ingested in their pure form.

Grinding minerals from mining will also get you:

* [[Plasma]]
* Uranium

[[Emag|Emagging]] a chem dispenser will add:

* Space Drugs
* Morphine
* Toxin
* Carpotoxin
* Miner's Salve

The [[Vending_machines#Medbay|NanoMed Plus]] is your main source of generic toxin when hacked.

Some chemical reactions will require you to heat the reagents in a [[File:Chemical_Heater.png]] '''Chemical Heater'''. This machine will heat a beaker to the desired temperature, slowing down the heating speed as it approaches the target temperature. If you don't risk making the chemical explode by overheating it (such as Meth) you can just set it to a very high temperature to avoid this.

== Machinery ==
You have all sorts of chems here, and can make many things. You can make [[#Medicines|medicines]], [[#Smoke|smoke]], [[#Fluorosurfactant|foam]], [[#Flash Powder|flash powder]], [[#Toxins|poisons]], [[#Space Lube|space lube]], [[#Fluorosulfuric Acid|acid]] and much more. The limit on combinations is a limit that exists only in your creativity (and the game engine). Be sure to be careful though, as mixing the wrong chemicals can be bad for your health, and please make sure you know what a chemical does before you use it. Experiment at your own risk.

=== [[File:Dispenser.png|Chem Dispenser]] Chemistry Dispensers ===

[[Chem Dispenser|Chem dispensers]] can be upgraded to unlock more chemicals, allow for more precise macro usage, increased power recharge rate and higher power capacity. If you run out of power, you can disassemble the dispenser with screwdriver+crowbar and rebuild it by first putting the circuit board back, and then all other things but use a full power cell [[File:Power_cell.png]] instead of the old one. Then screwdriver to finish. Or you can charge the machine with an [[inducer]] [[File:Inducer.png]].

=== [[File:Chemical_Heater.png|Chemical Heater]] Chemical Heater ===

Some chemical reactions will require you to heat the reagents in a [[Chemical Heater]]. Unless the recipes says otherwise, these reactions need you to heat the reagents ''above'' the required temperature.
This machine will heat/cool a beaker to the desired temperature, slowing down the heating/cooling speed as it approaches the target temperature. If you don't risk making the chemical explode by overheating it (like with [[#Methamphetamine|meth]]) you can just set it to a very high temperature to avoid this. '''Due to a rounding bug you sometimes need to heat chems 1 degree higher than the recipe says.''' 
Upgrading the laser will increase the heating/cooling speed.

=== [[File:Chemmaster.gif|ChemMaster 3000]] ChemMaster 3000 ===

Separates, bottles, and makes pills/patches out of chemicals loaded inside. You can load pretty much any container - beakers, spray bottles, water bottles and so on. 
Maximum size for dispensed bottles is 30u, patches 40u and pills 50u. Use a chemistry bag [[File:Chemistry_bag.png]] to quickly move large quantities of bottles, patches or pills. 
Can be upgraded with bigger beakers to allow a bigger buffer. By default it contains two ordinary 50u beakers for a total buffer volume of 100u.

=== [[File:Blender.png|Reagent Grinder]] All-In-One Grinder ===

Grinds, crushes, liquefies and extracts reagents from materials placed into it. 
If there is a significant reagent associated with the item, the Reagent grinder will distill a pure sample inside the collection beaker. 
For example: Plasma/gold/uranium/metal sheets, donk pockets, fruits, dead mice.

=== [[File:Smoke_machine.png|Smoke Machine]] Smoke Machine ===

Dispenses any chemical inside as a [[#Smoke|smoke]] cloud. Needs to be secured by wrenching first. 
A great alternative to [[#Smoke|smoke]] [[Grenade|grenades]], but easily incites lynch mobs. 
Can only be obtained through the circuit board being printed, and the required parts being assembled first.

==Metabolism==
When a reagent enters a body, it will then "tick" or "cycle" about every 2 seconds (these are called "life ticks", and are not to be confused with server ticks/tickrate). When this happens the body is purged of an amount of every reagent depending on their metabolism rates. This is the rate at which the chemical disappears from your body. It doesn't matter how many chems you have in your body, as they are all metabolized separately. If you are [[Guide_to_food_and_drinks#Hunger|hungry]] (sluggish), this will happen 20% slower, which makes chemicals have a bigger total effect since they last longer without being weaker per tick. Many mobs are "simplemobs" which means they don't have bloodstreams and can thus not be poisoned, sedated or healed with medicine. Monkeys and most playable humanoids are the exceptions to this.

==Active Pure Chemicals==
A.K.A. what happens when you eat or splash these. Their metabolism rate is 0.4u per cycle unless said otherwise. Unmentioned dispensable chemicals don't have any effects. Plasma and uranium requires you to grind mineral sheets to acquire.
*'''Chlorine''': Causes 1 brute damage per tick to a random body part.
*'''Copper''': Can be splashed on metal sheets to create bronze sheets.
*{{anchor|Ethanol}}'''Ethanol''': A decent alcoholic "beverage", with a [[Guide_to_food_and_drinks#Drinks|booze power]] of 65. Increases success rate of [[Surgery|surgery]] and flammability when applied externally. Metabolism rate 0.2.
*'''Fluorine''': Causes 1 toxin damage per tick.
*'''Iron''': Slowly restores blood volume.
*'''Lithium''': Causes twitching, drooling, moaning and not being able to walk straight.
*'''Mercury''': Causes 1 brain damage per tick, twitching, drooling, moaning and not being able to walk straight.
*'''[[Plasma]]''': Causes 3 toxin damage per tick. Creates gas form plasma when spilled or heated to 323.15K (50°C). Not to be confused with Stable Plasma, which does nothing.
*'''Radium''': Slowly causes irradiation (2 per tick). Creates glowing green goo on floor if more than 3u is spilled.
*'''Sugar''': Gives nutrition. Causes hyperglycemic shock if overdosed (200u). Metabolism rate 0.8.
*'''Sulphuric Acid''': Causes 1 toxin damage and some instant brute damage to one body part when ingested, and slightly more brute damage when ''injected''. Destroys head-wear and causes burn damage when sprayed or splashed on someone. Counts as a [[#Toxins|toxin]].
*'''Uranium''': Causes slight (1 per tick) irradiation. Creates glowing green goo on floor if more than 3u is spilled.
*'''Welding Fuel''': Causes 1 toxin damage per tick. Makes people flammable if splashed on.

== Components ==
These are very basic chemicals that you'll use in a lot of other more complicated chems. They can still be toxic, though.

== Medicines ==
"''And that's how I lost my medical license!''" Don't be this guy. Make these. Lots of these.

See [[guide to medicine|Guide to Medicine]] for more information on what to use when.

===Core Healing Medicines===
These healing drugs form the "core" drugs used to heal the most common forms of damage. All other medical drugs outside of this section are either harder to make upgrades, or highly specific forms of healing for rarer situations.

===Superior Healing Medicines===
These healing drugs are harder to make than the core healing drugs, however they are significantly better at healing.

Also, many upgraded drugs can be overdosed with, leading to a negative outcome. Be sure to monitor how many units of chemicals someone is injected with.

== Narcotics ==
Narcotics are highly addicitve drugs that can aggressively, or passively, provide a benefit. Be wary as its very easy to become addicted, or overdose, on a narcotic.

As a general rule of thumb, the more of a positive effect (or any effect) a narcotic can provide, the easier it is to get addicted or overdose on it.

People who overdose or get addicted to Narcotics tend to usually end up dying to the negative effects or requiring immedient medical attention. Take in moderation.

|-
!style='background-color:#FFEE88;'|{{anchor|Stabilizing Agent}}Stabilizing Agent▮
|1 part Iron 1 part Oxygen 1 part Hydrogen
|When mixed with certain pyrotechnics, it stabilizes the reaction and prevents the reaction for usage later. The stabilizing agent is not consumed when stabilizing explosives, and one unit is enough to stabilize any amount of explosives. '''This does not work on everything, so be warned!'''
|-
!style='background-color:#FFEE88;'|{{anchor|Foam Surfactant}}Foam Surfactant▮
|2 parts Carbon 2 parts Fluorine 1 part Sulphuric Acid
|Creates a large amount of foam when mixed with an equal amount of water. This foam carries any reagents along with it in the container, allowing you to apply reagents to large areas at a time. The foam will apply any carried reagents to any walls, floors, objects, or people and animals in the area of the foam. The reagents will be absorbed through a mob's exposed skin and somewhat through clothes unless completely impermeable(hardsuit/biohazard/medical gear). Foam is slippery!

|1 part [[#Stabilizing Agent|Stabilizing Agent]] 1 part [[#Foam Surfactant|Foam Surfactant]] 1 part Carbon temperature 200k
|A historical fire suppressant. Originally believed to simply displace oxygen to starve fires, it actually interferes with the combustion reaction itself. Vastly superior to the cheap water-based extinguishers. When used in a spray or with smoke it creates a non-slippery foam which extinguishes fires and burning creatures, and removes burning plasma from the air
|-
!style='background-color:#FFEE88;'|{{anchor|Smoke}}Smoke▮
|1 part Phosphorous 1 part Potassium 1 part Sugar
|This creates a large cloud of smoke that will take on the properties of everything (if anything) in the container of the reaction. The chemicals in the smoke will touch and react with everything that the smoke touches. Mobs caught within the smoke cloud without wearing a gas mask or breathing through a gas tank will ingest the smoke chemicals. Great for distributing toxins in a crowded area. Can be stabilized with Stabilizing Reagent. If stabilized, heat to 374K to activate.
|-

|1 part Chlorine 3 parts Fluorine temperature 424k
|When created it will create a temporary 3x3 fireball. Comes into existence at 1000K. A flammable substance so dangerous it can burn through the hull of the station. It lights you on fire when it comes into contact with you, and if it gets inside of you will burn you from the inside out. It metabolizes out of your body extremely fast, however.
|-
!style='background-color:#FFEE88;'|{{anchor|Sorium}}Sorium▮

|-
!style='background-color:#FFEE88;'|Meth Explosion▮
|1 part [[#Diethylamine|Diethylamine]] 1 part Iodine 1 part Phosphorus 1 part Hydrogen temperature 300k (Room temperature)
|If you are making Methamphetamine and mixing the ephedrine last, make sure you're using a chilled container, or it'll blow up just as if it was overheated. Definitely safer to just make the ephedrine separately. Blows up with the same strength as Black Powder.

==Reagent Delivery{{anchor|Reagent Delivery}}==
{{anchor|Under_the_hood}}There are different ways you can apply chemicals to a person or the environment.

===Delivery types===
First of all, there are actually 5 types of delivery, called '''ingest''', '''inject''', '''vapor''', '''touch''' and '''patch'''. If you are not interested in the details, you can skip to [[#Smoke_vs_foam|Smoke vs Foam vs others]]. 

====Ingest====
Ingest and '''inject'''{{anchor|Inject}} both usually do the exact same thing. The reagent simply enters the target's bloodstream. Used by pills, cigarettes, e-cigarettes, inhaling [[#Smoke|smoke]] and drinking the reagent directly.
====Inject====
Works the same as '''ingest''', where the reagent simply enters the target's bloodstream. Used by syringes and IV-drips.

====Vapor====
Vapor is used by (ranged) spray bottles and [[#Fluorosurfactant|foam]]. A portion of the reagents will enter the bloodstream of the target, but clothes will protect from some/most/all of it depending on clothing. Any hardsuit typically makes the target completely immune to getting it into their bloodstream, if the helmet is closed. But if the reagent has a "vapor" based component, that component will still affect the target, like [[#Fluorosulfuric Acid|Fluorosulfuric Acid]]. See more about [[#Fluorosurfactant|foam]] [[#Smoke_vs_foam|below]], with examples.

====Touch====
Touch is used by [[#Smoke|smoke]] and splashing. If the reagent has a "touch" based component, that component will affect the target (such as the instant heal part of [[#Synthflesh|Synthflesh]]), without being blocked by clothing. Nothing at all will enter the target's bloodstream, with the exception of smoke if the target has no internals on. Currently all "touch" components are also "patch" components. See more on [[#Smoke|smoke]] [[#Smoke_vs_foam|below]], with examples.

====Patch====
Patch is used by patches and medical gels. The reagent enters the target's bloodstream entirely AND if the reagent has a "patch" based component, that component will affect the target. Currently all "patch" components are also "touch" components.

===Smoke vs foam vs others===
These are the major practical differences between pills, syringes, patches, cigarettes, [[#Smoke|smoke]], [[#Fluorosurfactant|foam]], splash and spray. 
====Pills====
Pills can be instantly [[#Ingest|ingested]] if used on yourself. It doesn't work if mouth is covered. [[Plasmaman|Plasmamen]] will have trouble taking these. Holds up to 50u. 

====Syringes====
Syringes can inject into people even with their mouths covered, either by hand or with a syringe gun. It doesn't work on players wearing hardsuits or other pierce-immune clothing, unless you use a piercing syringe or manage to aim for an exposed part of their body. [[Golem]]s are completely immune to syringes (even piercing syringes), but [[Guide_to_chemistry#Patches|patches]] do work on them. A syringe holds between 10-60u, depending on type. Common syringes hold 15u. 

====Patches====
Will add all reagents into a person's bloodstream through any clothing, including hardsuits. Also apply [[#Touch|touch]]/[[#Patch|patch]] based effects. Example: A patch of 20u [[#Synthflesh|Synthflesh]] will instantly heal 25 brute and burn (touch component), and also enter the target's bloodstream (which in this case does nothing). Usable by [[Plasmaman|plasmamen]]. Can hold up to 40u. 

====Cigarettes====
Can be dipped in reagents to be filled. If smoking/vaping, you will slowly [[#Ingest|ingest]] whatever reagents the cigarette/cigar/e-cig contains. Though, if the reagents are too diluted, they may not build up in your bloodstream fast enough to have any effect at all. E-cigarettes can be trimmed with a screwdriver and multitool to also create [[#Smoke|smoke]]. 

====[[#Smoke|Smoke]]====
When a smoke reaction occurs, the smoke will consume any other reagent in its original containers, and spread that reagent to flooring and people/mobs who enter its area of effect. People who enter the smoke will be [[#Touch|touched]] by the reagents. If they do not have internals on, they will also [[#Ingest|ingest]] the reagents. The amount of smoke does not dilute the reagents. The reagents will be copied to every individual or tile (not walls, windows or doors) over the cloud's duration. Reagents that are special coded to affect floor/environment (such as blood, [[#Fluorosulfuric Acid|acid]] or [[#Space_Cleaner|Space Cleaner]]) will do so. Smoke will usually block sight. 
'''Smoke example 1:''' Smoke containing 20u [[#Synthflesh|Synthflesh]]. Everyone caught in the cloud, including people wearing hardsuits, will slowly heal 25 brute and burn, if they stay in the smoke for its full duration (otherwise they will heal partially). Those who are not wearing internals will also [[#Ingest|ingest]] 20u of the medicine, making it enter their bloodstream (which does nothing in this case). 

'''Smoke example:''' Smoke containing 20u [[#Chlorine Trifluoride|Chlorine Trifluoride]](CLF3). CLF3 has a [[#Touch|touch]](and [[#Vapor|vapor]]) component, so everyone caught in the cloud, including people wearing hardsuits and internals, will catch on fire. It will also deal burn damage to the environment, since CLF3 is coded to do so. Those who are not wearing internals will also [[#Ingest|ingest]] 20u of the CLF3 and thus, start heating up from the inside, effectively burning from both in and out at the same time. 

====[[#Fluorosurfactant|Foam]]====
When a foam reaction occurs, the foam will consume any other reagent in its original containers, and spread that reagent to flooring and people/mobs who enter its area of effect. The foam will spread slower than smoke and is usually slippery. Reagents will be copied through the [[#Vapor|vapor]] type delivery to those affected over the duration of the foam, BUT the reagents will be heavily diluted depending on the amount of foaming reagent used. Any clothing will reduce how much of the reagents will enter a person's bloodstream. Furthermore, foam reagent bloodstream insertion is divided into several 'ticks'. A minimum amount of reagent is required per tick for it to enter a bloodstream. So if too little reagents are contained in the reaction, or too much foam is used, the foam will do nothing. These ticks are counted ''after'' dilution and protection from clothing. On the other hand, if you use very small amounts of foam, the reagents may instead multiply in the bloodstream to more than the original amount. Hardsuits with helmets on will make people immune to getting reagents into their bloodstream through foam. Despite dilution, the foam will still copy remaining chems such as [[#Fluorosulfuric Acid|acid]], [[#Chlorine Trifluoride|CLF3]], or [[#Space_Cleaner|Space Cleaner]] to any tile it touches (but not walls, windows or doors). Foam will not block sight. 

'''Foam example 1:''' 250u foam containing 10u [[#Cyanide|Cyanide]] will spread a blue foam that does nothing to those it touches. The poison is too diluted to work at all. 

'''Foam example 2:''' 20u foam containing 250u [[#Fluorosulfuric Acid|Fluorosulfuric Acid]]. A small area and everyone touched by the foam will have large amounts of acid slowly melting their clothing and the affected floor and items. Those who did not wear a hardsuit with helmet on will also have a large amount of acid in their bloodstreams, depending on what they were wearing and how long they were in the foam. If they had internals on or not doesn't matter. 

====Splashing====
Throwing a beaker, or using a beaker on anything with harm intent, will splash its contents. The longer throw distance, the more the splash will spread out. A [[grenade]] will splash its content unless it also contains [[#Smoke|smoke]] or [[#Fluorosurfactant|foam]]. Splashing only does [[#Touch|touch]] delivery. This means most chemicals will do absolutely nothing when splashed. Reagents that have special properties to affect environment, such as Water, will do so where splashed (creates slippery tile). Reagents that have a [[#Touch|touch]] component will apply that component only. Example: If you throw a beaker of 80u [[#Synthflesh|Synthflesh]] at someone, you will instantly heal them for 100 brute and burn (and deal up to 150 toxin damage), since Synthflesh is touch/patch based. It doesn't matter if the target uses hardsuit or internals in this case. This means throwing a beaker of poison at someone will do nothing at all. Splashing can apply chemicals such as [[#Thermite|Thermite]] to walls. 

====Spraying====
Spraying reagents will apply them to environments (if they have any such effect), and will enter hit people's bloodstreams through the [[#Vapor|vapor]] delivery. This means clothing will protect from some/most/all of the reagents, depending on what they are wearing. Using a hardsuit with helmet on makes them immune to getting the reagent into their bloodstream. Reagents such as [[#Fluorosulfuric Acid|acid]], [[#Chlorine Trifluoride|CLF3]], or [[#Space_Cleaner|Space Cleaner]] will still cause their special effects when sprayed on people/environments, but will not enter the bloodstream if the target is wearing too heavy clothing.

Surgery

2020-04-06T01:26:56Z

VictorPride: Updated to reflect current medbay

All surgery requires a set of medical tools, typically found in the [[Operating Theatre]], along with an operating table.

= Surgical Tools =
[[Medical_items#Surgical_Tools|Information about every tool used in surgery can be found here.]]

For every tools there are ghetto analogues. Using them lowers chances of performing a surgical step correctly, wounding your patient. Hover your cursor over the item's picture to see its name. Next to the items are the success rates.

= Beginning of any Operation =
Step 1: [[File:OpTable.gif|Operating Table]] Place the patient onto the '''operating table''' (80%). Do this by selecting '''grab''' [[File:Intent_Grab.png]] intent. Then click the patient twice in a row until you have an aggressive grab. Then left click the operating table to place the patient on it. Switch back to '''help''' [[File:Intent_Help.png]] intent or your surgery will fail.
* If there is no operating table, you can use: '''[[Machines#Lifeform_Stasis_Unit|Stasis bed]]''' (80%), '''any table''' (60%), '''any bed''' (50%), ask them to lie '''on the floor''' (30%). Chances of successfully completing every step will be reduced.

Step 1.1 [[File:LongIslandIcedTea.png|Ethanol]] (Optional) Splash on, spray or apply a patch with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Miner's Salve|'''Miner's Salve''']] (+10%), [[Guide_to_chemistry#Sterilizine|'''Sterilizine''']] (+20%), [[Guide_to_food_and_drinks#Drinks|'''alcoholic drinks''']] (up to +46%), or [[Beekeeping#The_fruits_of_our_labour|'''Honey''']] (+60%) to improve your success chance.

*The stronger the alcohol, the more effective! The formula is: 0.1*(booze power/65). For example: Ethanol gives +10% success chance, Manly Dorf +15%, Bacchus' Blessing +46%.

Step 1.2: [[File:N2Otank.png|Sleeping Agent]] (Optional) Use a '''tank of anesthetic''' and a '''breath mask''' to make your patient sleep.

Step 2: [[File:Drapes.png|Drapes]] [[File:Bedsheet.png|Bedsheet]] Place '''drapes''' or '''bedsheet''' over the part of body you are operating.

Step 3: [[File:Intent_Help.png|Help Intent]] Switch to '''help intent'''. Pro tip: Disarm intent will fail every surgery step.

Step 4: [[File:Hud-target.gif|Target]] '''Aim''' at the appropriate body part (important!).

Step 5: [[File:Scalpel.png|Scalpel]] '''Do the surgery''' (see the steps below!). Afterwards congratulate the patient and kick them out.

'''To abort a surgery, hold a cautery in one hand and drapes in the other, and use the drapes on the patient.'''

= Procedures requiring no research or computer =

== Organ Manipulation ==
This surgery covers operations to remove/insert organs (brain, heart, appendix), '''lizard/cat tails''', cyber implants and alien embryos. The body part to target depends on which procedure you want to do. See below for details about each procedure.

=== Ordinary organs that require Organ Manipulation ===

These organs are present in every normal human, and can be removed or transferred through the [[#Organ_Manipulation|Organ Manipulation]] surgery type.

==== Brain [[File:Brain.png|Brain]][[File:Alien_brain.png|Alien brain]] ====

The source of consciousness, and where the player actually resides. Removing the brain from a body will make it unclonable through normal means. The brain can also be inserted into an [[MMI]] to allow it to speak, and to prepare it to be inserted into a [[Cyborg]] or an [[AI]]. Or it can be transferred into another body, which can then be cloned or defibrillated with the new host.

[[Changeling]]s' brains are vestigial, and they can survive without them. Beheading a changeling will not prevent one from reviving.

[[File:Hud_target_head.gif]] '''Target: Head'''

'''Note:''' Brains can also be removed by beheading the target and using a sharp object on the head to extract the brain.

'''Note:''' There's also a non-surgery method to put a brain back in:

Step 1: [[File:OpTable.gif|Operating Table]] Place the patient onto the operating table.

Step 2: [[File:Brain.png|Brain]] Cram their brain back into their skull.

Step 3: [[File:Clone.gif|Cloning Pod]] Usually, you take the body to be cloned.

==== Heart [[File:Heart.png]] ====

Required for basic survival, removing it will cause a heart attack, dealing huge amounts of oxygen damage until a new, beating, heart is inserted, or death. This can be delayed with [[epinephrine]], if you need more time.

On their own, hearts only beat for a short time when removed from a living body. To get a heart beating again, click on it while it's in your hand.

Heart attacks can also be induced by [[Initropidril]], and a heart attack may continue if you insert a still heart in a patient. In either case, to restore the heart to normal functionality, the patient needs to either be defibrillated or receive an electric shock.

[[File:Hud_target_chest.gif]] '''Target: Chest'''

==== Eyes [[File:Eyes.png]] ====

They're required for sight. Removing them will, obviously, turn the patient blind. Some races' eyes can see in the dark.

[[File:Hud_target_eyes.gif]] '''Target: Eyes'''

==== Ears[[File:Ears.png]] ====

Required for hearing. Removing them will make the patient deaf.

[[File:Hud_target_head.gif]] '''Target: Head'''

==== Liver [[File:Liver_organ.png]] ====

Required for processing [[Guide_to_chemistry|reagents]]. Removing the liver will cause the patient to take heavy toxin damage.

[[File:Hud_target_chest.gif]] '''Target: Chest'''

==== Lungs [[File:Lungs.png]] ====

Required for breathing. Removing the lungs will cause the patient to suffocate, regardless of air or internals. Some [[Guide_to_races|species]] have mutant lungs that don't need air: transplanting them onto an breathing race will transfer this property.

[[File:Hud_target_chest.gif]] '''Target: Chest'''

==== Stomach [[File:Stomach_organ.png]] ====

Required for digesting food.

[[File:Hud_target_chest.gif]] '''Target: Chest'''

==== Tongue [[File:Tongue.png]] [[File:Ltongue.png]] ====

Affects speech. Lacking a tongue will make speech very hard to comprehend, while mutant tongues such as lizards' or flypeoples' will give the patient the race's speech quirks. [[Abductor]]s' tongues carry over their telepathy, but they prevent normal speech.

[[File:Hud_target_mouth.gif]] '''Target: Mouth'''

==== Appendix [[File:Appendix.png|Appendix]][[File:Appendix_inflamed.png|Inflamed appendix]] ====

Removing it cures appendicitis and prevents it in the future, too.

[[File:Hud_target_crotch.gif]] '''Target: Groin'''

=== Other organs that require Organ Manipulation ===
There are also non-natural organs which can be added to give bonuses or to harm the patient in a few cases.

==== Cybernetic Implants [[File:Chest_implant.png]][[File:Brain_implant.png]][[File:Eye_implant.png]][[File:Toolset_arm_implant.png]] ====

These offer benefits to the patient at the cost of being very vulnerable to EMPs, with malfunctions ranging from eye-flashing to heart attacks. Cybernetic implants always require the [[#Organ_Manipulation|Organ Manipulation]] type surgery, even for arms. Cybernetic implants can be printed by [[Robotics]] or the [[medbay]] techfab after research.

[[File:Hud_target_chest.gif]][[File:Hud_target_head.gif]][[File:Hud_target_eyes.gif]] '''Target: Chest/Head/Eyes/Arms'''

==== Cybernetic Organs [[File:Cybernetic_heart.gif]] [[File:Cybernetic_liver.png]] [[File:Cybernetic_lungs.png]] [[File:Robotic_eyes.png]] ====

Cybernetic organs replace organs entirely. You need to remove the corresponding organ first to make room for the cybernetic organ. They are vulnerable to EMPs. Cybernetic organs can be printed by [[Robotics]] or the [[medbay]] techfab after research.

[[File:Hud_target_chest.gif]][[File:Hud_target_eyes.gif]] '''Target: Chest/Eyes'''

==== Xenomorph Embryo [[File:Facehugger.png|Facehugger]][[File:Larva.png|Larva]] ====

An alien larva growing inside the patient. If not removed quickly enough, it will gib the patient and try to escape, growing into a dangerous [[Xenomorph]].

[[File:Hud_target_chest.gif]] '''Target: Chest'''

==== Romerol Tumor ====

A latent infection in the patient's head, caused by [[Syndicate Items#Romerol|Romerol]]. If the patient dies while affected by Romerol, he will eventually rise as an aggressive [[Guide to races#Romerol Zombie|Zombie]]. This will repeat as long as the infection lasts; removing it surgically, cutting the head off, or gibbing the corpse will prevent resurrection.

Romerol is infective, and anyone hit by a zombie while unprotected will also acquire a Romerol Tumor.

[[File:Hud_target_head.gif]] '''Target: Head'''

== Prosthesis Organ Manipulation ==

[[#Augmentation|Augmented]] limbs have special surgery steps for [[#Organ_Manipulation|Organ Manipulation]] that are completed with mechanical tools. '''Unlike all other procedures, this can be performed on yourself with self-surgery'''.

== Lobectomy ==
This surgery is an extended organ manipulation, cutting open the chest cavity and removing a disfunctional lobe within the [[Guide_to_medicine#Organ_damage|lungs]]. This restores health to the [[Guide_to_medicine#Organ_damage|lungs]], and makes them operable, if they weren't before. Be warned, however, that this surgery can only be done once per set of lungs. Can only be performed if the patient's lungs are above 60 damage, which is a tad past severe damage thresholds. Do NOT confuse this surgery with lobotomy!

== Coronary Bypass ==
This surgery is an extended organ manipulation, cutting open the chest cavity and grafting a bypass onto the patient's [[Guide_to_medicine#Organ_damage|heart]]. This restores health to the heart, and makes it operable, if it was not before. Be warned, however, that this surgery can only be done once per heart, and that incising the heart and attaching the graft are not guaranteed successes. Keep bandages on hand in the event of failing the step, which will result in massive amounts of bleeding. Can only be performed if the heart has more than 60 damage (tad past severe damage threshold).

== Hepatectomy ==
Removes damaged parts of the liver so that the liver may regenerate properly. A [[Guide_to_medicine#Organ_table|liver]] healing surgery, similar to Coronary Bypass and Lobectomy. This liver surgery only shows up as an option when liver damage is above 50 and the liver itself is not failing.

== Augmentation ==

Replace a limb with a robot part. The head, torso, arms, and legs can all be augmented. Augmenting torso makes you immune to appendicitis and xeno larva. Robot limbs are tougher. They need welding to "heal" brute damage and wires for burn damage, and cannot be otherwise healed. EMP pulses will hurt augmented humans.

== Revival ==

The target is resurrected by this surgery. It works on any non-husked corpse with a head, '''even if it doesn't have a heart'''. If the body has sustained too much damage, it'll die immediately after the revival. You can circumvent this by applying [[Guide_to_chemistry#Synthflesh|synthflesh]] or performing [[#Tend_Wounds|Tend Wounds]] beforehand.

=Upgradable Surgery=
These surgeries are available roundstart but can be upgraded to better or different versions by researching certain nodes and then syncing a connected operating computer.

==Tend Wounds==
The tend wounds surgeries all share the same steps. They can be upgraded by researching certain nodes, and then syncing the operating computer with research database. There are "bruises", "burn" and "Mixture" versions. By default only "bruises" and "burn" are available. The basic versions of this surgery can be performed anywhere, but the upgraded versions require an operating table (or [[Machines#Lifeform_Stasis_Unit|Stasis bed]]) with an adjacent and synced operating computer. 

The target is healed by this surgery, without any [[Guide_to_chemistry|chemicals]] being involved. Useful for healing dead bodies for [[#Revival|revival]]. This works on patients with clothes on, but it's only 55% as effective. 

[[File:Hud_target_chest.gif]] '''Target: Chest'''
{|
| style="width: 400px;" |'''Procedure'''||'''Ghetto Analogues'''
|-
|Step 1: [[File:Scalpel.png|Scalpel]] '''Scalpel''': make a careful incision (does not cause damage or bleeding).||[[File:Knife.png|Kitchen Knife]] (65%) [[File:Shard.png|Shard]] (45%) [[File:Sword.gif|Energy Sword]] (75%) Any other sharp item (30%)
|-
|Step 2: [[File:Hemostat.png|Hemostat]] '''Tend bruises''': repair damage to the target (automatically repeats until fully healed).||[[File:Screwdriver_tool.png|Screwdriver]] (65%) [[File:Pen.png|Pen]] (55%)
|-

|}

*Step 2 will heal at least 5 damage each time it's repeated, with an added bonus the more damaged the patient is. This the bonus healing becomes higher with higher tiers of research, ranging from (patient's damage / 75) to (patient's damage / 12.5). The bonus is much lower on dead patients.
*Without any research the heal is 5 damage plus a bonus from damage. ("bruises" and "burn" versions only).
*With '''Improved Wound-Tending Surgery''' researched and synced, it will heal 5 damage plus a higher bonus from damage ("bruises" and "burn" versions only).
*With '''Advanced Surgery''' researched and synced, it will heal 5 damage plus an even higher bonus from damage ("bruises" and "burn" versions only).
*With '''Advanced Surgery''' researched and synced, you'll be able to do the "mixture" version (tend physical wounds), which heals 3 brute and burn plus a bonus from damage, but the step takes much shorter time than the other two versions.
*With '''Experimental Surgery''' researched and synced, "tend physical wounds" will heal 3 brute and burn plus a better bonus from damage.
*With '''Alien Surgery''' researched and synced, "tend physical wounds" will heal 1 brute and burn plus a very high bonus from damage.
*Failing the hemostat step [[File:Hemostat.png|Hemostat]] will deal some of the damage it would have healed.

If research was completed in the middle of surgery, you must restart the surgery to get the upgraded version.

==Dissection==

The dissection surgeries all share the same steps. They require an operating table (or [[Machines#Lifeform_Stasis_Unit|Stasis bed]]) with an adjacent operating computer. They can be upgraded by researching certain nodes, and then syncing the operating computer with research database. The procedure will deeply analyze the biology of a corpse (both humanoid and simple), and automatically add new findings to the research database. This generates research points for [[science]]. Does not work on living patients. Unlike other surgeries, even [[Cyborg|cyborgs]] can fail step 5.

*If you fail step 5 you only get 1% of the points, but you can try again on the same corpse.
*If you dissect a corpse and later do an upgraded dissection on the same corpse, you will only get the point difference between the two versions.
*If no upgrades were made between dissections, you can't dissect the same corpse again for extra points.

= Advanced Surgery =
These surgeries require the '''Advanced Surgery''' research node. After it is researched you must sync an operating computer (click "View Surgery Procedures" and then "Sync with research database") to unlock the procedures. Advanced surgeries can only be performed on an operating table (or [[Machines#Lifeform_Stasis_Unit|Stasis bed]]) with a connected operating computer.

== Lobotomy ==
Used to cure '''deep-rooted''' [[Guide to Traumas|brain traumas]]. This can cause a random, '''permanent''' trauma, or if lucky, a random '''special''' trauma which gives you rare powers. Requires the "Advanced Surgery" technology.

= Experimental Surgery =
These surgeries require the '''Experimental Surgery''' research node. After it is researched you must sync an operating computer (click "View Surgery Procedures" and then "Sync with research database") to unlock the procedures. Experimental surgeries can only be performed on an operating table (or [[Machines#Lifeform_Stasis_Unit|Stasis bed]]) with a connected operating computer.

== Pacification ==

The target becomes essentially becomes permanently pax-ed, and can no longer perform direct violent actions. Requires the "Experimental Surgery" technology.

== Viral Bonding ==

The target is forced into a symbiotic relationship with a virus. It makes the virus stay at stage 1 where it's usually harmless, but still infective to others . Note: The target must already be infected before you can initiate this surgery with the drapes. The target must be dosed with at least 5 units of [[Guide to chemistry#Virus Food|Virus Food]], [[Guide to chemistry#Formaldehyde|Formaldehyde]], and [[Guide to chemistry#Spaceacillin|Spaceacillin]] for the "Viral Bond" step to work. This surgery will not hide the virus icon from medical huds.

= Alien Surgery =
These surgeries require the '''Alien Surgery''' research node, which requires the '''Alien Technology''' node, which can only be revealed from deconstructing certain [[abductor]] items. After it is researched you must sync an operating computer (click "View Surgery Procedures" and then "Sync with research database") to unlock the procedures. Alien surgeries can only be performed on an operating table with a connected operating computer.

== Brainwashing ==

The target of this surgery, when successful, is bound to a primary goal you assign to him/her. He/she must follow these objectives, regardless of allegiance. This can be cured through brain surgery or with a mindshield implant. Requires either the brainwashing disk, acquired through the [[Syndicate Items#Brainwashing_Surgery_Program|Syndicate Uplink]], or researching the "Alien Surgery" technology.

Medical care is serious business, and going halfway with your medical treatment can result in someone dying or worse. Make sure you know what you're doing before you try to fix someone up!

If you're going to treat someone, you're going to have to know what tools you need, how to identify injuries, what machinery and facilities you must use, and how to keep people from dying while in treatment.

== Identification ==

First of all, grab a [[File:MedGlasses.png]] [[Medical_items#Health_Scanner_HUD|Health Scanner HUD]] from the medical storage and wear it. It shows the patient's overall health condition and therefore shows you instantly whom you should treat first from a group of patients. Identification is the first and foremost step in administering treatment. Here are ways to identify the type of injuries a person may have:

=== Types of damage ===

* There are four primary kinds of damage: '''Suffocation''', '''brute''', '''burn''', and '''toxin.''' These damage types have first aid kits associated with them and are therefore treatable without needing further medical equipment. The standard white first aid kit has materials to treat '''brute''', '''burn''', and '''bleeding'''
* There are additional kinds of damage that occur less often: '''cellular''', '''organ damage''', and '''bleeding'''
* You want the patient to be as healthy as possible, so you have to heal all of these, and they have to be '''treated individually''' (unless you use a chemical which heals multiple damage types at once).
* The overall health status (from 100% to -100%) is determined by adding these damages together, except brain damage. If there are 0 damages, the patient is '''perfectly healthy (100%)'''.
* If the patient has taken a total of about 100 damage (depending on mood), he will be in a '''critical condition (0%)'''; lying on the ground, unresponsive and ''gasping'' for air. When in this condition, the patient cannot breathe on their own and will gradually take suffocation damage until '''death (-100%)'''. This kills the patient.
* Bleeding is different from other types of damage. See below for a more extensive explanation.

* You can identify these different damage types quickly by using your [[PDA]] with the Med-U Cartridge inside and Health Scanning enabled, or a [[Medical_items#Health_Analyzer|Health Analyzer]] on the patient. You can also '''examine''' the patient (shift-click), but it only shows basic information.
* If a Health Analyzer or a PDA with a Med-U Cartridge is not available, '''observing''' the patient and their surroundings will help with diagnosis:
:* If there is a pile of '''vomit''' next to, or under the patient then they are most likely suffering from [[Guide_to_medicine#Toxins|toxin damage]].
:* If there is blood everywhere, blood on the person dying, or the patient has '''severe bruises''', they are suffering from [[Guide_to_medicine#Brute_Damage|brute damage]].
:* If the patient has black scars across their body and no blood, or the patient has '''severe burns''', they have been [[Guide_to_medicine#Burns|severely burned]].
:* If the patient is gasping, they are most likely [[Guide_to_medicine#Suffocation|suffocating]].
:* If the patient keeps fainting, trails drips of blood as they walk or is unresponsive to other forms of "healing" they may be [[Guide_to_medicine#Bleeding|bleeding]] or be suffering from blood-loss
:* If the patient reports other symptoms such as headaches, coughing or vomiting blood, they most likely have a [[Infections|virus]].

===Your first patient===

Your patient can arrive in two ways:

'''1. The patient walks in and needs treatment.'''
:''"PLS DOC HLEP!!"'' You can see the patient's overall health status with your Health Scanner HUD with just a glance. However, this will only tell you how serious the situation is and how quickly you need to act.

:How to act:

:* Use your PDA or a [[Medical_items#Health_Analyzer|Health Analyzer]] on the patient to identify the damage type.
:* Proceed with the necessary [[#Treatment|treatment found in the next chapter]].

'''2. The patient is dragged into Medbay and is in critical condition.'''
:The patient is unresponsive to the environment, on the floor, and gasping for air.

:How to act:

:* The first thing you should do is administer [[Guide_to_chemistry#Epinephrine|Epinephrine]]. [[Guide_to_chemistry#Epinephrine|Epinephrine]] stops the general decline of the critical patient's health and helps treat wounds if the patient is in crit. Don't give them 30 or more units of it, as that will cause toxin damage.
:* If the patient is bleeding, apply a medical gauze [[File:Gauze.png]]. Dragging a bleeding patient will quickly drain their blood, unless you use a roller bed.
:* If [[Guide_to_chemistry#Epinephrine|Epinephrine]] is not available, immediately perform [[#CPR|CPR]] a few times to ensure the patient stays alive until you do the next step. Make sure they're also not suffering from any other significant problems, like being on fire, or in a low-pressure environment.
::'''NOTE: CPR on its own will not heal someone unless they are only suffering from suffocation damage. If they are in crit because of brute/burn/toxins/cellular damage it will only keep them from dying.'''
:* Now you have several options to choose between:

== Treatment ==

===[[File:O2med.png]] Suffocation===
This is the first and most important to look out for. It is not visible on the body, but people suffering from it will ''gasp for air''. If you take 50 or more suffocation damage, you faint. On the Health Analyzer, it is the leftmost, blue damage type.

'''Ways of getting damaged:'''

* Being in an area without enough oxygen present will suffocate you.
* Missing a significant amount of blood will deal suffocation damage over time.
* Once you are in critical condition, you slowly take suffocation damage.
* Some [[Guide_to_chemistry##Medicines|medicines]] and [[Guide_to_chemistry#Aranesp|drugs]] can deal suffocation damage.
* Some poisons, like [[Cyanide]], deal suffocation damage.
* Some [[Virus|virus]] symptoms can cause suffocation.
* Missing a pair of lungs.
* Missing a heart, or suffering a heart attack.

'''Treatment:'''

* If a person is in crit, you can CPR{{anchor|CPR}} them. Remove your and patient's mask and helmet, switch to help intent and click on them.
* If a person is not in critical condition, and they have no bad chemicals in their bloodstream, placing them in an oxygen-filled area will suffice.
* [[Epinephrine]] stops the suffocation damage that is dealt from being in a crit state.
* [[Salbutamol]] quickly treats suffocation damage.
* [[Cryoxadone]] in a [[Medical_items#Cryogenics Tube & Freezer|cryotube]] or a very cold environment heal most types of damage, including suffocation.
* [[Orange juice]] isn't the most effective cure, but it does help a bit when no other options are available
* If a person is missing a heart, replace their heart or give them [[Guide_to_chemistry#Corazone|Corazone]].
* If a person's heart is unstable, use a [[defibrillator]] and their heart should return to normal, or give them [[Guide_to_chemistry#Corazone|Corazone]]. Other electric shocks might be able to restore their heartbeat.

===[[File:Brutefak.png]] Brute===
This is a straight-forward damage category. This is the far right damage type on Health Analyzer. Brute wounds are visible, and limb-specific.

'''Ways of getting damaged:'''

* Being physically hit by almost anything does brute damage.
* Some [[Guide_to_chemistry#Fluorosulfuric_Acid|chemicals]] can deal brute damage.

'''Treatment:'''

* If a person is bleeding, use bandages to prevent blood loss.
* Tend Wounds surgery can be used to fully remove brute damage. Have Science research higher levels of surgery and then sync the surgery console in order to utilise better types of Tend Wounds.
* Bruise packs can be applied to the damaged limb. Use a medical scanner or ask the patient to examine themselves.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Bicaridine|Bicaridine]] (in sleepers) and [[Guide_to_chemistry#Styptic_Powder|Styptic Powder]] (found in brute patches) heal brute damage over time.
* [[Surgery#Reconstruction|Reconstruction]] surgery will heal brute and burn damage.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Salicyclic_Acid|Salicyclic Acid]] heals brute damage over time, slowly if below 50 brute damage and quickly if above 50.
* [[Saline-glucose solution]] heals brute slowly.
* [[Cryoxadone]] in a [[Medical_items#Cryogenics Tube & Freezer|cryotube]] or a very cold environment heal most types of damage, including brute.
* Food can heal brute damage slowly.
* Milk, bilk, soy milk, soy latte, [[Guide_to_food_and_drinks#Coffee_Latte|cafe latte]], and cream can heal it very slowly.
* There are some job-specific ways of healing it: Donuts heal security, bananas and banana juice heal clowns and monkeys, "nothing" in mime's bottle of nothing heals mimes.
* If the patient has above 80% health then they can use the Sleep verb or be put to sleep (e.g. morphine) and it'll heal brute, burn, toxin and stamina damage. This works faster on beds and tables.

===[[File:Bmed.png]] Burns===

This is a straight-forward damage category. This is the damage type second to the right on Health Analyzer. Burns are visible, and limb-specific.

'''Ways of getting damaged:'''

* Temperatures too high or too low cause burn damage. That includes coldness of space and being set on fire.
* Lasers deal burn damage.
* Some [[Guide_to_chemistry#Phlogiston|chemicals]] deal burn damage.
* Electric shocks deal burn damage.

'''Treatment:'''

* Tend Wounds surgery can be used to fully remove burn damage. Have Science research higher levels of surgery and then sync the surgery console in order to utilise better types of Tend Wounds.
* Ointments can be applied to the damaged limb. Use a medical scanner or ask the patient to examine themselves.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Kelotane|Kelotane]] (in sleepers) and [[Guide_to_chemistry#Silver_Sulfadiazine|Silver Sulfadiazine]] (found in brute patches) heal burn damage over time.
* [[Surgery#Reconstruction|Reconstruction]] surgery will heal brute and burn damage.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Oxandrolone|Oxandrolone]] heals burn damage over time, slowly if under 50 burn damage and quickly if over 50.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Saline-Glucose_Solution|Saline-glucose solution]] heals burn slowly.
* [[Cryoxadone]] in a [[Medical_items#Cryogenics Tube & Freezer|cryotube]] or a very cold environment heal most types of damage, including burn.
* [[Tomato juice]] can heal it very slowly.
* There are some job-specific ways of healing it: Donuts heal security, bananas and banana juice heal clowns and monkeys, "nothing" in mime's bottle of nothing heals mimes.
* If the patient has above 80% health then they can use the Sleep verb or be put to sleep (e.g. morphine) and it'll heal brute, burn, toxin and stamina damage. This works faster on beds and tables.

===[[File:Tmed.png]] Toxins===
This is the second from the left on the Health Analyzer. It is not visible on the person's health doll. Thankfully it is easy to treat.

'''Ways of getting damaged:'''

* Breathing plasma deals toxic damage.
* Many [[Guide_to_chemistry#Toxins|chemicals]] deal toxic damage.
* Drinking a lot of alcohol can hurt your liver and deal toxic damage.
* A severely damaged or missing liver will deal toxic damage. Liver failure will also prevent the patient from processing any reagents.
* High doses of [[radiation]] deal toxic damage.
* Mind the difference between chemical named [[Guide_to_chemistry#Toxin|"toxin"]] and toxic damage.

'''Treatment:'''

* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Antitoxin|Antitoxin]] heals toxic damage and purges poison.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Charcoal|Charcoal]] heals toxic damage and purges all other chemicals. Cannot OD.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Pentetic_Acid|Pentetic acid]] heals toxic damage and purges all other chemicals quickly. Also purges [[radiation]].
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Calomel|Calomel]] purges toxic chemicals more quickly than pentetic acid but doesn't heal toxic damage, and will '''deal''' toxic damage if the patient has 20 health or more.
* [[Cryoxadone]] in a [[Medical_items#Cryogenics Tube & Freezer|cryotube]] or a very cold environment heal most types of damage, including toxic.
* Lime juice, tea, iced tea can slowly heal it.
* Vomiting heals some toxic damage. You usually can't control it, however.
* If patient has a failing liver, a liver transplant will stop the toxin damage caused by that liver, and will allow chemicals to work in the body.
* If the patient has above 80% health then they can use the Sleep verb or be put to sleep (e.g. morphine) and it'll heal brute, burn, toxin and stamina damage. This works faster on beds and tables.

===[[File:Blood Pack.png]] Bleeding===
After a limb sustains 30 brute damage, it will start bleeding. Bleeding can also be caused by cuts from sharp objects.

IVs and gauze [[File:Gauze.png]] will provide relief from bleeding. [[File:IV Drip.png]]

A [[Guide_to_food_and_drinks#Bloody_Mary|Bloody Mary]] will also replenish lost blood.

'''WARNING: Incorrect blood types are toxic to the patient, and will not replenish their blood!'''

'''Treating bloodloss:'''
# Bandage wound with a medical gauze to stop bleeding.
# Locate brute damage.
# Treat brute damages above ~30 to halt bleeding.
# Assess blood levels, if low or critical, proceed with blood transfusion.
# If a blood transfusion is unavailable, blood will be naturally produced by the body, albeit slowly.
# Iron and most foods will improve blood regeneration.

'''Blood transfusion:'''
# Use medical scanner on patient to find blood type.
# Obtain blood pack from [[surgery]], [[virology]], or [[cargo]].
# Make sure IV drip is in the blue "inject" mode. You toggle this by clicking the IV drip when nothing is attached to it.
# Attach blood pack to IV drip.
# Click-drag IV drip onto patient.
# Check up on patient's blood levels regularly, this process moves quickly.
# Detach patient from IV drip by click-dragging the IV drip onto the patient again, or simply clicking the IV. If you forget this the patient will take some brute damage from the needle being ripped out.
# Detach blood pack by clicking on the IV drip.

'''Blood donation:'''
# Make sure IV drip is in the red "take" mode. You toggle this by clicking the IV drip when nothing is attached to it.
# Attach a beaker or an empty blood pack to IV drip.
# Attach to a donor by click-dragging it onto the donor.
# Blood pack will automatically fill. The alarm will sound if patient's blood levels reach critical.
# Detach IV drip by click-dragging it onto the donor again or simply clicking the IV.
# Click on IV drip to eject the beaker or blood pack. Label appropriately.

=== [[File:Clone.gif]] Cellular damage ===

Rare kind of damage. It shows up on scanners and is visible on examination, but exact numbers aren't shown.

'''Ways of getting damaged:'''

* Slimes. They deal cellular damage when they feed on someone.
* Cloned people will have cellular damage, unless the cloner is fully upgraded and the cloning was 100% complete.
* Decloners from [[Abductor]]s or [[Guide_to_research_and_development|R&D]].

'''Treatment:'''

* [[Cryoxadone]] in a [[#Cryogenics_Tube|cryotube]] is the most common way to heal cellular damage.
* [[Rezadone]] instantly heals all cellular damage, even with only a 1 unit pill, and does not require a cryotube. But it's hard to get.

Keep in mind that cellular damage is not related to [[Guide_to_genetics#Mutations_and_Their_Consequences|genetic disabilities]] (which must be treated with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Mutadone|mutadone]])! They are different things.

=== [[File:Liver_organ.png]] Organ damage ===

Organ damage will cause side-effects as they reach thresholds, which will alert the owner when passed. If an organ shows up as "non-functional", that means its failing, and will not work, and will cause some life-threatening ailments depending on which organ it is. There is currently no way to see the exact damage of each organ, but for the most part they function on low-threshold, high-threshold, and failing, which will show up as "mildly damaged", "severely damaged", and "non-functional" lists when you scan someone with a medical scanner. Note that all the listed organs decay over time, which is the most common way they'll get damaged- but [[Surgery#Cybernetic_Organs|synthetic organs]] do not! The best way to avoid any of these side-effects is to replace your fleshy organs for [[Surgery#Cybernetic_Organs|metallic ones]], though these too come with downsides in the form of EMP vulnerability.

'''Ways of getting damaged:'''

* Flashes and sharp objects in the eyes (eyes)
* Loud noises (ears)
* Appendicitis (appendix)
* Otherwise, an organ that's not in a living body (thus is on the ground or in a dead body) will decay if not held in a freezer, fridge, morgue unit, or [[Machines#Smartfridge|organ smartfridge]]. Organs will go from perfectly healthy to broken in 15 minutes, except for hearts, which will decay completely in 4 minutes, and brains, which will decay completely in 30 minutes.

'''Treatment:'''

* [[Surgery#Coronary_Bypass|A coronary bypass]] can be performed on a heart that's decayed past 60 damage, and restores functionality. Good for getting a heart that's too damaged to defib to work again.
* [[Surgery#Lobectomy|A lobectomy]] will do the same as above but for the lungs, which will scarce occur due to their 15 minute decay timer, but it's still an option.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Oculine|Oculine]] will rapidly fix damaged eyes, clearing any shortsightedness/blindness caused by damage.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Inacusiate|Inacusiate]] will immediately fix damaged ears to a perfect state.
* Otherwise, time and health will fix most organs (not the brain!). The healthier you are, the faster this rate goes, with a base rate of around half an hour for an organ to go from max damage to perfectly healthy. Taking vitamins increases your health, and thus increases this rate, so eat smart!

'''Side-Effects:'''

* Damaged ears will occasionally flare up with tinnitus, causing very brief deafness, with increasingly frequent bouts until the ears are non-functional, at which point you become deaf.
* Damaged eyes will grow increasingly short-sighted, until finally becoming blind when non-functional.
* Damaged lungs will make you cough, increase the rate at which you breath by 25% and will collapse if non-functional, causing rapid suffocation. Life-threatening!
* A non-functional appendix will burst, causing toxin damage until the organ is removed. Life-threatening!
* A damaged heart will increase the rate at which you breath by 25%, and will cease when non-functional, causing immediate heart attack. Life-threatening!
* A damaged stomach will be unable to hold nutriment and food down as easily, causing vomiting depending on the amount of food consumed and the damage of the stomach. A non-functional stomach does not digest any food.

====Organ table====
Each organ has 100 max hp except the eyes which have 50, and the brain which has 200.

=== [[File:Brain.png]] Brain damage ===

Nasty. Randomly causes [[Guide_to_Traumas|brain traumas]] and other problems. If a brain reaches 0% health, the person dies. To be able to see exact brain health you can use an advanced health analyzer; the [[CMO]] gets one of by default.

'''Ways of getting damaged:'''

* Certain chemicals such as [[Guide_to_chemistry#Mercury|mercury]], [[Guide_to_chemistry#Impedrezene|impedrezene]], or [[Guide_to_chemistry#Fentanyl|fentanyl]]
* Abusing certain [[Guide_to_chemistry#Narcotics|narcotics]].
* [[Chaplain]]'s bible applied to the head.
* [[Blood Cult|Unholy Water]]
* [[Infections#Infection_Listings|Brainrot]]
* Earthsblood from [[Guide_to_hydroponics#Plants|Ambrosia Gaia]].

'''Treatment:'''

* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Mannitol|Mannitol]] pills or injections slowly cure brain damage, but does not cure [[Guide_to_Traumas|brain traumas]]. Can be poured directly on a brain.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Neurine|Neurine]] will treat the most '''basic''' brain traumas. These traumas have no prefix on health analyzer.
* [[Surgery#Brain_Surgery|Brain Surgery]], will also cure '''severe''' traumas. You can identify severe brain traumas by the prefix "severe" on health analyzer. [[Nanites#Healing_Programs|Nanites]] can cure these and lower level traumas.
* [[Surgery#Lobotomy|Lobotomy]] will cure '''deep-rooted brain traumas''', but at the risk of causing a different '''permanent''' trauma. You can identify deep-rooted brain traumas by the prefix "deep-rooted" on health analyzer. Additionally [[Virus#Symptoms_Table|viruses]] and [[Nanites#Healing_Programs|nanites]] can cure these.
* '''Permanent''' brain traumas are either permanent or curable with magic, which is typically unavailable. A lobotomy can cause these traumas. You can identify permanent brain traumas by the prefix "permanent" on health analyzer. If you get one of these, then assume "this is my life now".

=== [[File:DoubleESword.png]] Dismemberment ===

Patients may lose their head, legs or arms. A patient missing arms can't hold items or interact with objects. Missing legs will slow down a patient, but missing both legs also prevents them from holding any items unless they're buckled to a chair. Missing both arms and legs Patients missing a head will die in most cases as their body lacks its brain.

Examining a patient will describe any missing limbs.

'''Ways of getting damaged:'''
* Strong physical forces, such as explosions.
* Getting hit by strong, sharp objects such as swords.
** Patients who experience severe trauma to the chest may have their organs spill out, but the torso will remain intact.
* Amputation via [[surgery]].

'''Treatment:'''
* [[Surgery#Prosthetic_Replacement|Prosthetic replacement]] via [[surgery]].
** Cyborg limbs may be used. Robotics can produce cyborg limbs, but there is also a crate of cheap prosthetic limbs in Medbay Storage.
** Organic limbs may be used. In most cases a detached limb can be found and reattached. However, all the limb's damage will be transferred to the patient, so be ready to treat brute and bleeding. Any organic limb will also cause toxin damage when replaced.
** Synthetic limbs from a [[Limb Grower|limb grower]] may be used. The limb grower can only produce arms and legs, unless [[Emag|emagged]].

== Using Stasis Beds, Cryogenics and Sleepers ==
{{anchor|Using Sleepers and Cryogenics}}

=== [[File:Stasis_bed_off.png]][[Medical_items#Lifeform_Stasis_Unit|Lifeform Stasis Units]]===
These "[[Medical_items#Lifeform_Stasis_Unit|Stasis Beds]]" can be found in [[Medbay|medbay]]. They are [[Machines#Lifeform_Stasis_Unit|constructable]] [[Guide_to_construction#Machines|machines]]. You can buckle patients to them to put them into '''stasis'''. While in stasis they no longer bleed, no longer process [[Guide_to_chemistry|reagents]] or [[Infections|diseases]] (good or bad), and if [[#Death|dead]] it freezes their [[#Death|defibrillation timer]]. Buckle [[Health#Critical_Status|badly hurt]] or [[#Death|dead]] patients on them to be able to safely treat them without them dying. Give them any [[Guide_to_chemistry#Core_Healing_Medicines|medicine]] they need and then remove the patients from the stasis bed so the medication starts healing them. The patient is awake and fully aware while in stasis. You can turn the beds off or on with alt-click.

=== [[File:Cryo.gif]] [[Medical_items#Cryogenics Tube & Freezer|Cryogenics Tube]] ===
{{anchor|Cryo Tube}}
Cryotube uses the fact that [[cryoxadone]] is effective at healing all types of damage, but only works in cold environments. '''Use it mainly to heal cellular damage''', or if you're out of other options/unsure what to do. This is slow and forces the patient to sleep, so prefer using brute/fire patches for common damage types.

[[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Cryogenics_Tube|Cryotubes can also be upgraded by science parts.]] Better matter bins allow them to work slightly faster and more efficiently.

How to prepare '''(This needs to be done at the start of every round!)''':
# Wrench the oxygen canisters to connect them to the tubes and the freezer.
# Turn on the [[Atmospherics_items#Freezer|freezer]]. Set it to lowest temperature available.
# Load beakers with [[Guide_to_chemistry|chemicals]]. A common and highly effective mix for general use is [[cryoxadone]], [[Guide_to_chemistry#Clonexadone|clonexadone]] and [[mannitol]].
#* All [[Guide_to_chemistry|chemicals]] will work, so you can add anything. This is the job of [[chemist]]s.
#* Be sure to only add chemicals that you can't overdose on, as patients in cryo will receive large doses of all chemicals in the beaker.
# Set the tubes to Auto instead of Manual, so they'll open after the patient is healed. Otherwise, they'll be trapped in until someone opens the tube from outside.

How to use:

# Ensure the cryo tube is open first. If not, open it.
# Pull the person on top of the tube.
# Remove all clothes that prevent freezing, such as hardsuits. Else it won't work.
# Close the cryo tube with its menu, or click on them with your mouse and drag their sprite to the tube.
# Open the tube menu and turn it on. If their health starts to improve (sometimes it takes a moment to start), they're all set. If not, make sure everything is set up properly (cryoxadone in the tubes? pressure in the canisters?).
# Turning it on will put the patient to sleep.
# If set to auto, the tube will turn off and pop open automatically.
# Shake the person to get them up (switch to help intent and click on them multiple times).
# Let them redress (or do it for them) then kick them out.
 
If you ever see this: 
[[File:Trapped_in_cryo.png]]

Then those people are trapped in powered off cryo tubes. Run to them immediately and either turn the tubes ON or let the patients out! Make sure cryo tube doors are also set to AUTO and not MANUAL. And make sure the patients are actually healing, or else you have to try other treatments instead.

=== [[File:Sleeper.gif]] [[Medical_items#Sleeper|Sleeper]] ===

Sleepers allow you to inject various chemicals, and have unlimited stocks of them. Sleepers cannot inject most chemicals when the patient's health is very low, with the exception of injecting [[epinephrine]].

Sleepers also show you chemicals present in person's bloodstream.

Scientists can produce upgraded parts for [[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Sleeper|sleepers]].

How to use:
# Ensure the sleeper is open. If it's not, open it.
# Pull the patient near the sleeper.
# Click and hold on the patient, move the cursor to the sleeper, then release. This puts the patient inside.
# Click on the sleeper to open the menu.
# Inject chemicals they need. (See the [[Machines#Sleeper|list of sleeper chemicals]] available).
# Open the sleeper and remove the patient.

== Rarer Cases ==

These situations are not as common as normal damages, but they are still VERY LIKELY to happen. AND most of these cases are also more severe, and it is essential to be fucking fast and know this stuff! '''So read up, these are the things that will separate quacks from real doctors!'''

===Overdose===
Giving too much of some chemicals or drugs can cause an overdose. This means that you aren't doing your job correctly and you may even kill the patient if you don't stop doing it! Check the ''overdose threshold'' column in the [[Guide_to_chemistry#Medicines|guide to chemistry]] before you use a medicine.

How to treat:
* [[Charcoal]] purges chemicals slowly and can help with toxin damage.
* [[Calomel]] purges chemicals quickly and is relatively easy to make in chemistry.
* [[Pentetic acid]] clears all chemicals from the body very quickly.

===[[File:Hudill.png]] Disease===

Diseases are the most frustrating thing you will deal with, as it spreads, and can infect you as well. A disease can be identified easily with the Health Scanner HUD, it giving an unhappy-face-icon next to the patient. PDA or a Health Analyzer will give more detailed information about the disease and its cure.

How to Treat:
# Suit up in [[Clothes_and_internals#bodywear|anti-viral equipment]].
# Isolate the patient from public areas (if they have an infectious disease).
# Use your Health Analyzer or PDA to see the cure for the disease (see the [[Understanding stats|list of possible cures]]). This won't work if the disease is stealthy.
# If the virus is stealthy, you must take a blood sample to a PanD.E.M.I.C 2200 to see the cure.
# Administer the chemical element needed OR if the virologist has made a vaccine, administering one unit of it will instantly cure and immunize.
# Monitor the patient's condition and do not leave them until they are clear and have become resistant to the disease.
# Check if you are infected after dealing with the patient.
After:
* If you did not have the vaccine for the disease, see [[Infections#How_to_create_a_vaccine|How to create a vaccine]].

Cloned people lose their immunity and can be reinfected.

===Blindness===
The person cannot see, they usually will scream about this endlessly.

How to treat:
* If vision is just blurry, give [[Guide_to_plants#Carrot|carrot]]s or a pair of [[prescription glasses]].
* If they are completely blind, [[Surgery#Eye surgery|eye surgery]].
* [[Omnizine]] has a chance of curing blindness while slowly healing eye damage.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Oculine|Oculine]] can be made by chemistry, and will heal all eye damage.

===Deafness===
The person cannot hear, they are usually unresponsive to verbal communication and can't even hear themselves talking.

What causes it:
* Genetic mutations can cause genetic deafness.
* Ear damage can render a person deaf temporarily, but extreme ear damage causes permanent deafness.
* Explosions cause ear damage.
* Flashbangs cause ear damage.

How to treat:
* Most ear damage will heal on its own.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Inacusiate|Inacusiate]] heals minor ear damage instantly.
* Put earmuffs on the patient and minor ear damage will quickly heal.
* Mutadone can reset genetic mutations including deafness.

===Genetic Disabilities===
Disabilities cannot be cured by normal medical tools. If a patient appears to be unable to move and/or they speak in very short sentences, they most likely have a genetic disability.

How to treat:
* Ask a competent [[geneticist]] to remove the bad mutation.
* A one unit [[Guide_to_chemistry#Mutadone|mutadone]] pill or injection will instantly cure all genetic abnormalities. This includes beneficial ones.

===[[Health#Radiation|Radiation]]===
Radiation causes people to lose hair, puke, black out, and take steady toxin damage. It may cause people to mutate and gain genetic disabilities as well. Radiation either comes from space radiation surges, after which crew members will "feel strange" and begin to vomit, but more likely you'll be treating engineers who got too close to the supermatter, atmos techs (or bystanders) doing badly contained fusion work, or geneticists and people undergoing genetic testing who've stuck themselves with too many SE injectors.

A medical analyzer will only say whether a patient is irradiated or not, so you need a Geiger counter or advanced medical analyzer to see the exact radiation levels of a patient.

How to treat:
* If you have [[potassium iodide]] or [[pentetic acid]], use them. These will remove the radiation before it poisons the patient further.
* Give the patient a shower to help lower radiation levels.
* Else, treat with [[charcoal]] or toxin-healing chems until the radiation levels have subsided.
* Heavily irradiated patients will irradiate anyone around them. Try to isolate the patient, check rads on whoever dragged them in, and get yourself treated as well.
* If they were sitting by the SM for a while before someone got them out, or if atmos has been misbehaving and things have really gone to shit, the (probably dead) patient's clothes or other items could be contaminated. Keep in mind that you can scan items with a Geiger, although if things have gotten to this point you are probably too busy with people to have time to do that. Put their old body somewhere away from the cloner, at least.

===Hallucinations===
This nasty effect causes the victim to see (usually deadly) objects in his and others' hands, along with random visions of people and creatures attacking him, causing stamina damage. Extremely unpleasant. Caused by [[Changeling|changelings]], [[Guide_to_chemistry#Mindbreaker_Toxin|mindbreaker toxin]],[[supermatter]], and some bad 'shrooms.

How to treat:
* [[Synaptizine]] is good for removing hallucinations. But can cause light toxin damage.
* [[Haloperidol]] is not as good as synaptizine at removing hallucinations, but it will also quickly purge drugs that are likely causing them.

==[[File:Huddead.png|32px]] Death==
So your patient is dead. There are several [[#Typical_cases_of_death|typical cases of death]]. If your patient is a [[#Normal_dead_body|normal dead body]] though (with a head and brain), your first course of action is usually to prepare the body for [[#Defibrillation|defibrillation]].

===Revival methods===
====[[File:Defib.png]]Defibrillation====
The [[Medical_items#Defibrillator|defibrillator]] can shock a body back to life. Defibrillation has a timed window of 15 minutes, but the heart will [[#Organ_damage|decay]] in only 4 minutes and must typically be [[Surgery#Coronary_Bypass|repaired]] for a late defibrillation to work. Other [[#Organ_table|organs]] may be damaged as well.

# Examine the body. Does it say they '''committed suicide''' or that their '''soul has departed'''? Nothing you can do for them, fast track them to the [[morgue]].
# If the body has this icon [[File:Huddefib.gif|32px]] on your [[Medical_items#Health_Scanner_HUD|health scanner hud]] it means its soul is still online and has not used the "Do Not Resuscitate" button. Inject the patient with some [[Guide_to_chemistry#Formaldehyde|formaldehyde]] ([[General_items#Epinephrine_MediPen|medipens]] have some) or buckle them to a [[#Lifeform_Stasis_Units|Stasis Bed]] to stop the organ decay, and scan them with a [[Medical_items#Health_Analyzer|health analyzer]]. Do they have more than 180 brute or burn damage (tracked separately, having 179 of each is fine)? If so, you must heal the corpse with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Synthflesh|synthflesh]] or [[Surgery#Tend_Wounds|surgery]] until it has under 180 brute and burn. You can buy [[Guide_to_chemistry#Synthflesh|synthflesh]] from the [[Vending_machines#NanoMed_Plus|NanoMed Plus]] or have it made in [[Guide_to_chemistry#Synthflesh|chemistry]].
# If the [[Medical_items#Health_Analyzer|health analyzer]] says the patient's heart is non-functional, the heart must be [[Surgery#Coronary_Bypass|repaired]] or [[Surgery#Organ_Manipulation|replaced]].
# If the patient is wearing a space suit or [[Clothing_and_Accessories#Hardsuits|hardsuit]], take it off. To take it off, drag the sprite of the patient onto yours, and click the hardsuit in the menu that pops up.
# [[File:Husk.png]] If the body is a grey husk see [[#Husk|husk]].
# If the patient is missing too much blood, do a [[#Bleeding|blood transfusion]].
# If the patient has large amounts of bad reagents, do a [[Surgery#Stomach_Pump|stomach pump]].
# Once the patient is prepared, equip your [[Medical_items#Defibrillator|defib]]. The [[Medical_items#Defibrillator|large one]] goes on your backpack slot, and the [[Medical_items#Compact_Defibrillator|compact defib]] that the [[CMO]] gets goes on your belt slot. Then empty both of your hands, and click the new defib hud icon on your top left to take out the paddles. Activate/click the paddles with the hand you're holding them in to wield them in both hands. Stop dragging the patient (with '''H''' or '''delete''') or you will be shocked. Switch to '''help''' [[File:Intent_Help.png]] intent, target the chest, and then click on the patient. After a few seconds, you'll deliver an electric shock.
# If the defib pings and says the resuscitation was successful, use [[#Treatment|medicine]] on them and unbuckle them from the [[#Lifeform_Stasis_Units|Stasis Bed]] to make them start healing up. If the defib instead says they have severe tissue damage, they are either a [[#Husk|husk]], have a non-functional crucial organ or have more than 180 brute or burn damage, and needs to be repaired more.

A successful defibrillation will instantly heal some basic damage and put the patient in a hardcrit state. If the revived patient had less damage than that the defib will instead deal suffocation damage to put them in crit.

====Strange Reagent====
Another option for revival is the [[Guide_to_chemistry|chemical]] [[Guide_to_chemistry#Strange_Reagent|strange reagent]], which works similarly to [[#Defibrillator|defibrillation]], except with slightly different requirements (read them [[Guide_to_chemistry#Strange_Reagent|here]]). Use the same steps to prepare the body as before [[#Defibrillator|defibrillation]], except this revival method also restores some blood levels and organ damage depending on how much of the reagent you use. Muest be [[Guide_to_chemistry#Ingest|ingested]].

====Replica Pod cloning====
If you can't find the patient's brain your only choice is try to turn them into a [[Podman|podperson]]. See [[Guide_to_hydroponics#Replica_Pod_Cloning|here]] how. Note there is no way for you to see if a brainless body has a soul or not, since the examine message won't tell you. If the patient has no blood, you can give blood to the corpse, then use that for podding.

====Revival surgery====
[[Surgery#Revival|Revival surgery]] is an optional way to bring people back to life. See the [[Surgery#Revival|surgery]] page for details. This may be useful for races without hearts since it makes you defibrillate the head instead of the heart.

===Typical cases of death===
The following tables contain suggested actions for when you encounter corpses, heads or brains.

====Normal dead body====
Examine the body.

|-
|This one is completely devoid of life.
|No soul. Permanent.
|Bring to morgue.
|}

====[[File:Husk.png|32px]]Husk====
Typically a victim of heavy [[#Burns|burn damage]]. It can be unhusked with 100u [[Guide_to_chemistry#Synthflesh|synthflesh]] or 5u [[Guide_to_chemistry#Rezadone|rezadone]]. The corpse must have under 50 burn damage for it to work. Proceed to [[#Revival_methods|revival methods]] afterwards. If unhusking doesn't work then the corpse may be a [[Changeling|changeling]] victim. A Changeling victim needs a brain transplant to be revivable.

====Completely messed up corpse====
A body could be missing all limbs except head, be husked, bloodless, contaminated with radiation and have 600 damage etc. In these cases the simple solution is to [[Surgery#Amputation|amputate]] the head and attach it to a fresh body with [[Surgery#Prosthetic_Replacement|prosthetic replacement]]. Then use your [[#Revival_methods|revival method]] of choice.

== Afternote ==
'''PLEASE NOTE''' In the morgue there are lights on the side of the trays. The red light means there is a dead body with no ghost occupying it. Green light means there is a body with a ghost in it, which means you should attempt to [[#Revival_methods|revive]] it. The green light is normally accompanied by a beeping sound as well, which can be turned off by alt-clicking the tray. If you aren't serious about healing someone, don't give up halfway. Get proper medical staff to help them. At least try to have a doctor save them.

VictorPride: Organ damage updates

Medical care is serious business, and going halfway with your medical treatment can result in someone dying or worse. Make sure you know what you're doing before you try to fix someone up!

If you're going to treat someone, you're going to have to know what tools you need, how to identify injuries, what machinery and facilities you must use, and how to keep people from dying while in treatment.

== Identification ==

First of all, grab a [[File:MedGlasses.png]] [[Medical_items#Health_Scanner_HUD|Health Scanner HUD]] from the medical storage and wear it. It shows the patient's overall health condition and therefore shows you instantly whom you should treat first from a group of patients. Identification is the first and foremost step in administering treatment. Here are ways to identify the type of injuries a person may have:

=== Types of damage ===

* There are four primary kinds of damage: '''Suffocation''', '''brute''', '''burn''', and '''toxin.''' These damage types have first aid kits associated with them and are therefore treatable without needing further medical equipment. The standard white first aid kit has materials to treat '''brute''', '''burn''', and '''bleeding'''
* There are additional kinds of damage that occur less often: '''cellular''', '''organ damage''', and '''bleeding'''
* You want the patient to be as healthy as possible, so you have to heal all of these, and they have to be '''treated individually''' (unless you use a chemical which heals multiple damage types at once).
* The overall health status (from 100% to -100%) is determined by adding these damages together, except brain damage. If there are 0 damages, the patient is '''perfectly healthy (100%)'''.
* If the patient has taken a total of about 100 damage (depending on mood), he will be in a '''critical condition (0%)'''; lying on the ground, unresponsive and ''gasping'' for air. When in this condition, the patient cannot breathe on their own and will gradually take suffocation damage until '''death (-100%)'''. This kills the patient.
* Bleeding is different from other types of damage. See below for a more extensive explanation.

* You can identify these different damage types quickly by using your [[PDA]] with the Med-U Cartridge inside and Health Scanning enabled, or a [[Medical_items#Health_Analyzer|Health Analyzer]] on the patient. You can also '''examine''' the patient (shift-click), but it only shows basic information.
* If a Health Analyzer or a PDA with a Med-U Cartridge is not available, '''observing''' the patient and their surroundings will help with diagnosis:
:* If there is a pile of '''vomit''' next to, or under the patient then they are most likely suffering from [[Guide_to_medicine#Toxins|toxin damage]].
:* If there is blood everywhere, blood on the person dying, or the patient has '''severe bruises''', they are suffering from [[Guide_to_medicine#Brute_Damage|brute damage]].
:* If the patient has black scars across their body and no blood, or the patient has '''severe burns''', they have been [[Guide_to_medicine#Burns|severely burned]].
:* If the patient is gasping, they are most likely [[Guide_to_medicine#Suffocation|suffocating]].
:* If the patient keeps fainting, trails drips of blood as they walk or is unresponsive to other forms of "healing" they may be [[Guide_to_medicine#Bleeding|bleeding]] or be suffering from blood-loss
:* If the patient reports other symptoms such as headaches, coughing or vomiting blood, they most likely have a [[Infections|virus]].

===Your first patient===

Your patient can arrive in two ways:

'''1. The patient walks in and needs treatment.'''
:''"PLS DOC HLEP!!"'' You can see the patient's overall health status with your Health Scanner HUD with just a glance. However, this will only tell you how serious the situation is and how quickly you need to act.

:How to act:

:* Use your PDA or a [[Medical_items#Health_Analyzer|Health Analyzer]] on the patient to identify the damage type.
:* Proceed with the necessary [[#Treatment|treatment found in the next chapter]].

'''2. The patient is dragged into Medbay and is in critical condition.'''
:The patient is unresponsive to the environment, on the floor, and gasping for air.

:How to act:

:* The first thing you should do is administer [[Guide_to_chemistry#Epinephrine|Epinephrine]]. [[Guide_to_chemistry#Epinephrine|Epinephrine]] stops the general decline of the critical patient's health and helps treat wounds if the patient is in crit. Don't give them 30 or more units of it, as that will cause toxin damage.
:* If the patient is bleeding, apply a medical gauze [[File:Gauze.png]]. Dragging a bleeding patient will quickly drain their blood, unless you use a roller bed.
:* If [[Guide_to_chemistry#Epinephrine|Epinephrine]] is not available, immediately perform [[#CPR|CPR]] a few times to ensure the patient stays alive until you do the next step. Make sure they're also not suffering from any other significant problems, like being on fire, or in a low-pressure environment.
::'''NOTE: CPR on its own will not heal someone unless they are only suffering from suffocation damage. If they are in crit because of brute/burn/toxins/cellular damage it will only keep them from dying.'''
:* Now you have several options to choose between:
:# Take the patient to a [[#Sleeper|sleeper]]. Drag the patient on top of it, then click on the sleeper to close it and administer medicine.
:# Take the patient to a [[#Lifeform_Stasis_Units|stasis bed]]. Drag the patient until on top of it, then click-drag the patient to the bed to buckle. Give the patient [[Guide_to_chemistry|medicine]] and then click the stasis bed to unbuckle.
:# Strip the patient's space suit off if they have one and put the patient into a [[Medical_items#Cryogenics_Chamber_.26_Freezer|cryochamber]], wait for them to heal up and eject.
:# Just use bruise packs, ointments or other appropriate medication. See [[#Treatment|next section]] for examples.

== Treatment ==

===[[File:O2med.png]] Suffocation===
This is the first and most important to look out for. It is not visible on the body, but people suffering from it will ''gasp for air''. If you take 50 or more suffocation damage, you faint. On the Health Analyzer, it is the leftmost, blue damage type.

'''Ways of getting damaged:'''

* Being in an area without enough oxygen present will suffocate you.
* Missing a significant amount of blood will deal suffocation damage over time.
* Once you are in critical condition, you slowly take suffocation damage.
* Some [[Guide_to_chemistry##Medicines|medicines]] and [[Guide_to_chemistry#Aranesp|drugs]] can deal suffocation damage.
* Some poisons, like [[Cyanide]], deal suffocation damage.
* Some [[Virus|virus]] symptoms can cause suffocation.
* Missing a pair of lungs.
* Missing a heart, or suffering a heart attack.

'''Treatment:'''

* If a person is in crit, you can CPR{{anchor|CPR}} them. Remove your and patient's mask and helmet, switch to help intent and click on them.
* If a person is not in critical condition, and they have no bad chemicals in their bloodstream, placing them in an oxygen-filled area will suffice.
* [[Epinephrine]] stops the suffocation damage that is dealt from being in a crit state.
* [[Salbutamol]] quickly treats suffocation damage.
* [[Cryoxadone]] in a [[Medical_items#Cryogenics Tube & Freezer|cryotube]] or a very cold environment heal most types of damage, including suffocation.
* [[Orange juice]] isn't the most effective cure, but it does help a bit when no other options are available
* If a person is missing a heart, replace their heart or give them [[Guide_to_chemistry#Corazone|Corazone]].
* If a person's heart is unstable, use a [[defibrillator]] and their heart should return to normal, or give them [[Guide_to_chemistry#Corazone|Corazone]]. Other electric shocks might be able to restore their heartbeat.

===[[File:Brutefak.png]] Brute===
This is a straight-forward damage category. This is the far right damage type on Health Analyzer. Brute wounds are visible, and limb-specific.

'''Ways of getting damaged:'''

* Being physically hit by almost anything does brute damage.
* Some [[Guide_to_chemistry#Fluorosulfuric_Acid|chemicals]] can deal brute damage.

'''Treatment:'''

* If a person is bleeding, use bandages to prevent blood loss.
* Tend Wounds surgery can be used to fully remove brute damage. Have Science research higher levels of surgery and then sync the surgery console in order to utilise better types of Tend Wounds.
* Bruise packs can be applied to the damaged limb. Use a medical scanner or ask the patient to examine themselves.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Bicaridine|Bicaridine]] (in sleepers) and [[Guide_to_chemistry#Styptic_Powder|Styptic Powder]] (found in brute patches) heal brute damage over time.
* [[Surgery#Reconstruction|Reconstruction]] surgery will heal brute and burn damage.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Salicyclic_Acid|Salicyclic Acid]] heals brute damage over time, slowly if below 50 brute damage and quickly if above 50.
* [[Saline-glucose solution]] heals brute slowly.
* [[Cryoxadone]] in a [[Medical_items#Cryogenics Tube & Freezer|cryotube]] or a very cold environment heal most types of damage, including brute.
* Food can heal brute damage slowly.
* Milk, bilk, soy milk, soy latte, [[Guide_to_food_and_drinks#Coffee_Latte|cafe latte]], and cream can heal it very slowly.
* There are some job-specific ways of healing it: Donuts heal security, bananas and banana juice heal clowns and monkeys, "nothing" in mime's bottle of nothing heals mimes.
* If the patient has above 80% health then they can use the Sleep verb or be put to sleep (e.g. morphine) and it'll heal brute, burn, toxin and stamina damage. This works faster on beds and tables.

===[[File:Bmed.png]] Burns===

This is a straight-forward damage category. This is the damage type second to the right on Health Analyzer. Burns are visible, and limb-specific.

'''Ways of getting damaged:'''

* Temperatures too high or too low cause burn damage. That includes coldness of space and being set on fire.
* Lasers deal burn damage.
* Some [[Guide_to_chemistry#Phlogiston|chemicals]] deal burn damage.
* Electric shocks deal burn damage.

'''Treatment:'''

* Tend Wounds surgery can be used to fully remove burn damage. Have Science research higher levels of surgery and then sync the surgery console in order to utilise better types of Tend Wounds.
* Ointments can be applied to the damaged limb. Use a medical scanner or ask the patient to examine themselves.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Kelotane|Kelotane]] (in sleepers) and [[Guide_to_chemistry#Silver_Sulfadiazine|Silver Sulfadiazine]] (found in brute patches) heal burn damage over time.
* [[Surgery#Reconstruction|Reconstruction]] surgery will heal brute and burn damage.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Oxandrolone|Oxandrolone]] heals burn damage over time, slowly if under 50 burn damage and quickly if over 50.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Saline-Glucose_Solution|Saline-glucose solution]] heals burn slowly.
* [[Cryoxadone]] in a [[Medical_items#Cryogenics Tube & Freezer|cryotube]] or a very cold environment heal most types of damage, including burn.
* [[Tomato juice]] can heal it very slowly.
* There are some job-specific ways of healing it: Donuts heal security, bananas and banana juice heal clowns and monkeys, "nothing" in mime's bottle of nothing heals mimes.
* If the patient has above 80% health then they can use the Sleep verb or be put to sleep (e.g. morphine) and it'll heal brute, burn, toxin and stamina damage. This works faster on beds and tables.

===[[File:Tmed.png]] Toxins===
This is the second from the left on the Health Analyzer. It is not visible on the person's health doll. Thankfully it is easy to treat.

'''Ways of getting damaged:'''

* Breathing plasma deals toxic damage.
* Many [[Guide_to_chemistry#Toxins|chemicals]] deal toxic damage.
* Drinking a lot of alcohol can hurt your liver and deal toxic damage.
* A severely damaged or missing liver will deal toxic damage. Liver failure will also prevent the patient from processing any reagents.
* High doses of [[radiation]] deal toxic damage.
* Mind the difference between chemical named [[Guide_to_chemistry#Toxin|"toxin"]] and toxic damage.

'''Treatment:'''

* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Antitoxin|Antitoxin]] heals toxic damage and purges poison.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Charcoal|Charcoal]] heals toxic damage and purges all other chemicals. Cannot OD.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Pentetic_Acid|Pentetic acid]] heals toxic damage and purges all other chemicals quickly. Also purges [[radiation]].
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Calomel|Calomel]] purges toxic chemicals more quickly than pentetic acid but doesn't heal toxic damage, and will '''deal''' toxic damage if the patient has 20 health or more.
* [[Cryoxadone]] in a [[Medical_items#Cryogenics Tube & Freezer|cryotube]] or a very cold environment heal most types of damage, including toxic.
* Lime juice, tea, iced tea can slowly heal it.
* Vomiting heals some toxic damage. You usually can't control it, however.
* If patient has a failing liver, a liver transplant will stop the toxin damage caused by that liver, and will allow chemicals to work in the body.
* If the patient has above 80% health then they can use the Sleep verb or be put to sleep (e.g. morphine) and it'll heal brute, burn, toxin and stamina damage. This works faster on beds and tables.

===[[File:Blood Pack.png]] Bleeding===
After a limb sustains 30 brute damage, it will start bleeding. Bleeding can also be caused by cuts from sharp objects.

IVs and gauze [[File:Gauze.png]] will provide relief from bleeding. [[File:IV Drip.png]]

A [[Guide_to_food_and_drinks#Bloody_Mary|Bloody Mary]] will also replenish lost blood.

'''WARNING: Incorrect blood types are toxic to the patient, and will not replenish their blood!'''

'''Treating bloodloss:'''
# Bandage wound with a medical gauze to stop bleeding.
# Locate brute damage.
# Treat brute damages above ~30 to halt bleeding.
# Assess blood levels, if low or critical, proceed with blood transfusion.
# If a blood transfusion is unavailable, blood will be naturally produced by the body, albeit slowly.
# Iron and most foods will improve blood regeneration.

'''Blood transfusion:'''
# Use medical scanner on patient to find blood type.
# Obtain blood pack from [[surgery]], [[virology]], or [[cargo]].
# Make sure IV drip is in the blue "inject" mode. You toggle this by clicking the IV drip when nothing is attached to it.
# Attach blood pack to IV drip.
# Click-drag IV drip onto patient.
# Check up on patient's blood levels regularly, this process moves quickly.
# Detach patient from IV drip by click-dragging the IV drip onto the patient again, or simply clicking the IV. If you forget this the patient will take some brute damage from the needle being ripped out.
# Detach blood pack by clicking on the IV drip.

'''Blood donation:'''
# Make sure IV drip is in the red "take" mode. You toggle this by clicking the IV drip when nothing is attached to it.
# Attach a beaker or an empty blood pack to IV drip.
# Attach to a donor by click-dragging it onto the donor.
# Blood pack will automatically fill. The alarm will sound if patient's blood levels reach critical.
# Detach IV drip by click-dragging it onto the donor again or simply clicking the IV.
# Click on IV drip to eject the beaker or blood pack. Label appropriately.

=== [[File:Clone.gif]] Cellular damage ===

Rare kind of damage. It shows up on scanners and is visible on examination, but exact numbers aren't shown.

'''Ways of getting damaged:'''

* Slimes. They deal cellular damage when they feed on someone.
* Cloned people will have cellular damage, unless the cloner is fully upgraded and the cloning was 100% complete.
* Decloners from [[Abductor]]s or [[Guide_to_research_and_development|R&D]].

'''Treatment:'''

* [[Cryoxadone]] in a [[#Cryogenics_Tube|cryotube]] is the most common way to heal cellular damage.
* [[Rezadone]] instantly heals all cellular damage, even with only a 1 unit pill, and does not require a cryotube. But it's hard to get.

Keep in mind that cellular damage is not related to [[Guide_to_genetics#Mutations_and_Their_Consequences|genetic disabilities]] (which must be treated with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Mutadone|mutadone]])! They are different things.

=== [[File:Liver_organ.png]] Organ damage ===

Organ damage will cause side-effects as they reach thresholds, which will alert the owner when passed. If an organ shows up as "non-functional", that means its failing, and will not work, and will cause some life-threatening ailments depending on which organ it is. There is currently no way to see the exact damage of each organ, but for the most part they function on low-threshold, high-threshold, and failing, which will show up as "mildly damaged", "severely damaged", and "non-functional" lists when you scan someone with a medical scanner. Note that all the listed organs decay over time, which is the most common way they'll get damaged- but [[Surgery#Cybernetic_Organs|synthetic organs]] do not! The best way to avoid any of these side-effects is to replace your fleshy organs for [[Surgery#Cybernetic_Organs|metallic ones]], though these too come with downsides in the form of EMP vulnerability.

'''Ways of getting damaged:'''

* Flashes and sharp objects in the eyes (eyes)
* Loud noises (ears)
* Appendicitis (appendix)
* Otherwise, an organ that's not in a living body (thus is on the ground or in a dead body) will decay if not held in a freezer, fridge, morgue unit, or [[Machines#Smartfridge|organ smartfridge]]. Organs will go from perfectly healthy to broken in 15 minutes, except for hearts, which will decay completely in 4 minutes, and brains, which will decay completely in 30 minutes.

'''Treatment:'''

* [[Surgery#Coronary_Bypass|A coronary bypass]] can be performed on a heart that's decayed past 60 damage, and restores functionality. Good for getting a heart that's too damaged to defib to work again.
* [[Surgery#Lobectomy|A lobectomy]] will do the same as above but for the lungs, which will scarce occur due to their 15 minute decay timer, but it's still an option.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Oculine|Oculine]] will rapidly fix damaged eyes, clearing any shortsightedness/blindness caused by damage.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Inacusiate|Inacusiate]] will immediately fix damaged ears to a perfect state.
* Otherwise, time and health will fix most organs (not the brain!). The healthier you are, the faster this rate goes, with a base rate of around half an hour for an organ to go from max damage to perfectly healthy. Taking vitamins increases your health, and thus increases this rate, so eat smart!

'''Side-Effects:'''

* Damaged ears will occasionally flare up with tinnitus, causing very brief deafness, with increasingly frequent bouts until the ears are non-functional, at which point you become deaf.
* Damaged eyes will grow increasingly short-sighted, until finally becoming blind when non-functional.
* Damaged lungs will make you cough, increase the rate at which you breath by 25% and will collapse if non-functional, causing rapid suffocation. Life-threatening!
* A non-functional appendix will burst, causing toxin damage until the organ is removed. Life-threatening!
* A damaged heart will increase the rate at which you breath by 25%, and will cease when non-functional, causing immediate heart attack. Life-threatening!
* A damaged stomach will be unable to hold nutriment and food down as easily, causing vomiting depending on the amount of food consumed and the damage of the stomach. A non-functional stomach does not digest any food.

====Organ table====
Each organ has 100 max hp except the eyes which have 50, and the brain which has 200.

=== [[File:Brain.png]] Brain damage ===

Nasty. Randomly causes [[Guide_to_Traumas|brain traumas]] and other problems. If a brain reaches 0% health, the person dies. To be able to see exact brain health you can use an advanced health analyzer; the [[CMO]] gets one of by default.

'''Ways of getting damaged:'''

* Certain chemicals such as [[Guide_to_chemistry#Mercury|mercury]], [[Guide_to_chemistry#Impedrezene|impedrezene]], or [[Guide_to_chemistry#Fentanyl|fentanyl]]
* Abusing certain [[Guide_to_chemistry#Narcotics|narcotics]].
* [[Chaplain]]'s bible applied to the head.
* [[Blood Cult|Unholy Water]]
* [[Infections#Infection_Listings|Brainrot]]
* Earthsblood from [[Guide_to_hydroponics#Plants|Ambrosia Gaia]].

'''Treatment:'''

* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Mannitol|Mannitol]] pills or injections slowly cure brain damage, but does not cure [[Guide_to_Traumas|brain traumas]]. Can be poured directly on a brain.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Neurine|Neurine]] will treat the most '''basic''' brain traumas. These traumas have no prefix on health analyzer.
* [[Surgery#Brain_Surgery|Brain Surgery]], will also cure '''severe''' traumas. You can identify severe brain traumas by the prefix "severe" on health analyzer. [[Nanites#Healing_Programs|Nanites]] can cure these and lower level traumas.
* [[Surgery#Lobotomy|Lobotomy]] will cure '''deep-rooted brain traumas''', but at the risk of causing a different '''permanent''' trauma. You can identify deep-rooted brain traumas by the prefix "deep-rooted" on health analyzer. Additionally [[Virus#Symptoms_Table|viruses]] and [[Nanites#Healing_Programs|nanites]] can cure these.
* '''Permanent''' brain traumas are either permanent or curable with magic, which is typically unavailable. A lobotomy can cause these traumas. You can identify permanent brain traumas by the prefix "permanent" on health analyzer. If you get one of these, then assume "this is my life now".

=== [[File:DoubleESword.png]] Dismemberment ===

Patients may lose their head, legs or arms. A patient missing arms can't hold items or interact with objects. Missing legs will slow down a patient, but missing both legs also prevents them from holding any items unless they're buckled to a chair. Missing both arms and legs Patients missing a head will die in most cases as their body lacks its brain.

Examining a patient will describe any missing limbs.

'''Ways of getting damaged:'''
* Strong physical forces, such as explosions.
* Getting hit by strong, sharp objects such as swords.
** Patients who experience severe trauma to the chest may have their organs spill out, but the torso will remain intact.
* Amputation via [[surgery]].

'''Treatment:'''
* [[Surgery#Prosthetic_Replacement|Prosthetic replacement]] via [[surgery]].
** Cyborg limbs may be used. Robotics can produce cyborg limbs, but there is also a crate of cheap prosthetic limbs in Medbay Storage.
** Organic limbs may be used. In most cases a detached limb can be found and reattached. However, all the limb's damage will be transferred to the patient, so be ready to treat brute and bleeding. Any organic limb will also cause toxin damage when replaced.
** Synthetic limbs from a [[Limb Grower|limb grower]] may be used. The limb grower can only produce arms and legs, unless [[Emag|emagged]].

== Using Stasis Beds, Cryogenics and Sleepers ==
{{anchor|Using Sleepers and Cryogenics}}

=== [[File:Stasis_bed_off.png]][[Medical_items#Lifeform_Stasis_Unit|Lifeform Stasis Units]]===
These "[[Medical_items#Lifeform_Stasis_Unit|Stasis Beds]]" can be found in [[Medbay|medbay]]. They are [[Machines#Lifeform_Stasis_Unit|constructable]] [[Guide_to_construction#Machines|machines]]. You can buckle patients to them to put them into '''stasis'''. While in stasis they no longer bleed, no longer process [[Guide_to_chemistry|reagents]] or [[Infections|diseases]] (good or bad), and if [[#Death|dead]] it freezes their [[#Death|defibrillation timer]]. Buckle [[Health#Critical_Status|badly hurt]] or [[#Death|dead]] patients on them to be able to safely treat them without them dying. Give them any [[Guide_to_chemistry#Core_Healing_Medicines|medicine]] they need and then remove the patients from the stasis bed so the medication starts healing them. The patient is awake and fully aware while in stasis. You can turn the beds off or on with alt-click.

=== [[File:Cryo.gif]] [[Medical_items#Cryogenics Tube & Freezer|Cryogenics Tube]] ===
{{anchor|Cryo Tube}}
Cryotube uses the fact that [[cryoxadone]] is effective at healing all types of damage, but only works in cold environments. '''Use it mainly to heal cellular damage''', or if you're out of other options/unsure what to do. This is slow and forces the patient to sleep, so prefer using brute/fire patches for common damage types.

[[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Cryogenics_Tube|Cryotubes can also be upgraded by science parts.]] Better matter bins allow them to work slightly faster and more efficiently.

How to prepare '''(This needs to be done at the start of every round!)''':
# Wrench the oxygen canisters to connect them to the tubes and the freezer.
# Turn on the [[Atmospherics_items#Freezer|freezer]]. Set it to lowest temperature available.
# Load beakers with [[Guide_to_chemistry|chemicals]]. A common and highly effective mix for general use is [[cryoxadone]], [[Guide_to_chemistry#Clonexadone|clonexadone]] and [[mannitol]].
#* All [[Guide_to_chemistry|chemicals]] will work, so you can add anything. This is the job of [[chemist]]s.
#* Be sure to only add chemicals that you can't overdose on, as patients in cryo will receive large doses of all chemicals in the beaker.
# Set the tubes to Auto instead of Manual, so they'll open after the patient is healed. Otherwise, they'll be trapped in until someone opens the tube from outside.

How to use:

# Ensure the cryo tube is open first. If not, open it.
# Pull the person on top of the tube.
# Remove all clothes that prevent freezing, such as hardsuits. Else it won't work.
# Close the cryo tube with its menu, or click on them with your mouse and drag their sprite to the tube.
# Open the tube menu and turn it on. If their health starts to improve (sometimes it takes a moment to start), they're all set. If not, make sure everything is set up properly (cryoxadone in the tubes? pressure in the canisters?).
# Turning it on will put the patient to sleep.
# If set to auto, the tube will turn off and pop open automatically.
# Shake the person to get them up (switch to help intent and click on them multiple times).
# Let them redress (or do it for them) then kick them out.
 
If you ever see this: 
[[File:Trapped_in_cryo.png]]

Then those people are trapped in powered off cryo tubes. Run to them immediately and either turn the tubes ON or let the patients out! Make sure cryo tube doors are also set to AUTO and not MANUAL. And make sure the patients are actually healing, or else you have to try other treatments instead.

=== [[File:Sleeper.gif]] [[Medical_items#Sleeper|Sleeper]] ===

Sleepers allow you to inject various chemicals, and have unlimited stocks of them. Sleepers cannot inject most chemicals when the patient's health is very low, with the exception of injecting [[epinephrine]].

Sleepers also show you chemicals present in person's bloodstream.

Scientists can produce upgraded parts for [[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Sleeper|sleepers]].

How to use:
# Ensure the sleeper is open. If it's not, open it.
# Pull the patient near the sleeper.
# Click and hold on the patient, move the cursor to the sleeper, then release. This puts the patient inside.
# Click on the sleeper to open the menu.
# Inject chemicals they need. (See the [[Machines#Sleeper|list of sleeper chemicals]] available).
# Open the sleeper and remove the patient.

== Rarer Cases ==

These situations are not as common as normal damages, but they are still VERY LIKELY to happen. AND most of these cases are also more severe, and it is essential to be fucking fast and know this stuff! '''So read up, these are the things that will separate quacks from real doctors!'''

===Overdose===
Giving too much of some chemicals or drugs can cause an overdose. This means that you aren't doing your job correctly and you may even kill the patient if you don't stop doing it! Check the ''overdose threshold'' column in the [[Guide_to_chemistry#Medicines|guide to chemistry]] before you use a medicine.

How to treat:
* [[Charcoal]] purges chemicals slowly and can help with toxin damage.
* [[Calomel]] purges chemicals quickly and is relatively easy to make in chemistry.
* [[Pentetic acid]] clears all chemicals from the body very quickly.

===[[File:Hudill.png]] Disease===

Diseases are the most frustrating thing you will deal with, as it spreads, and can infect you as well. A disease can be identified easily with the Health Scanner HUD, it giving an unhappy-face-icon next to the patient. PDA or a Health Analyzer will give more detailed information about the disease and its cure.

How to Treat:
# Suit up in [[Clothes_and_internals#bodywear|anti-viral equipment]].
# Isolate the patient from public areas (if they have an infectious disease).
# Use your Health Analyzer or PDA to see the cure for the disease (see the [[Understanding stats|list of possible cures]]). This won't work if the disease is stealthy.
# If the virus is stealthy, you must take a blood sample to a PanD.E.M.I.C 2200 to see the cure.
# Administer the chemical element needed OR if the virologist has made a vaccine, administering one unit of it will instantly cure and immunize.
# Monitor the patient's condition and do not leave them until they are clear and have become resistant to the disease.
# Check if you are infected after dealing with the patient.
After:
* If you did not have the vaccine for the disease, see [[Infections#How_to_create_a_vaccine|How to create a vaccine]].

Cloned people lose their immunity and can be reinfected.

===Blindness===
The person cannot see, they usually will scream about this endlessly.

How to treat:
* If vision is just blurry, give [[Guide_to_plants#Carrot|carrot]]s or a pair of [[prescription glasses]].
* If they are completely blind, [[Surgery#Eye surgery|eye surgery]].
* [[Omnizine]] has a chance of curing blindness while slowly healing eye damage.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Oculine|Oculine]] can be made by chemistry, and will heal all eye damage.

===Deafness===
The person cannot hear, they are usually unresponsive to verbal communication and can't even hear themselves talking.

What causes it:
* Genetic mutations can cause genetic deafness.
* Ear damage can render a person deaf temporarily, but extreme ear damage causes permanent deafness.
* Explosions cause ear damage.
* Flashbangs cause ear damage.

How to treat:
* Most ear damage will heal on its own.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Inacusiate|Inacusiate]] heals minor ear damage instantly.
* Put earmuffs on the patient and minor ear damage will quickly heal.
* Mutadone can reset genetic mutations including deafness.

===Genetic Disabilities===
Disabilities cannot be cured by normal medical tools. If a patient appears to be unable to move and/or they speak in very short sentences, they most likely have a genetic disability.

How to treat:
* Ask a competent [[geneticist]] to remove the bad mutation.
* A one unit [[Guide_to_chemistry#Mutadone|mutadone]] pill or injection will instantly cure all genetic abnormalities. This includes beneficial ones.

===[[Health#Radiation|Radiation]]===
Radiation causes people to lose hair, puke, black out, and take steady toxin damage. It may cause people to mutate and gain genetic disabilities as well. Radiation either comes from space radiation surges, after which crew members will "feel strange" and begin to vomit, but more likely you'll be treating engineers who got too close to the supermatter, atmos techs (or bystanders) doing badly contained fusion work, or geneticists and people undergoing genetic testing who've stuck themselves with too many SE injectors.

A medical analyzer will only say whether a patient is irradiated or not, so you need a Geiger counter or advanced medical analyzer to see the exact radiation levels of a patient.

How to treat:
* If you have [[potassium iodide]] or [[pentetic acid]], use them. These will remove the radiation before it poisons the patient further.
* Give the patient a shower to help lower radiation levels.
* Else, treat with [[charcoal]] or toxin-healing chems until the radiation levels have subsided.
* Heavily irradiated patients will irradiate anyone around them. Try to isolate the patient, check rads on whoever dragged them in, and get yourself treated as well.
* If they were sitting by the SM for a while before someone got them out, or if atmos has been misbehaving and things have really gone to shit, the (probably dead) patient's clothes or other items could be contaminated. Keep in mind that you can scan items with a Geiger, although if things have gotten to this point you are probably too busy with people to have time to do that. Put their old body somewhere away from the cloner, at least.

===Hallucinations===
This nasty effect causes the victim to see (usually deadly) objects in his and others' hands, along with random visions of people and creatures attacking him, causing stamina damage. Extremely unpleasant. Caused by [[Changeling|changelings]], [[Guide_to_chemistry#Mindbreaker_Toxin|mindbreaker toxin]],[[supermatter]], and some bad 'shrooms.

How to treat:
* [[Synaptizine]] is good for removing hallucinations. But can cause light toxin damage.
* [[Haloperidol]] is not as good as synaptizine at removing hallucinations, but it will also quickly purge drugs that are likely causing them.

==[[File:Huddead.png|32px]] Death==
So your patient is dead. There are several [[#Typical_cases_of_death|typical cases of death]]. If your patient is a [[#Normal_dead_body|normal dead body]] though (with a head and brain), your first course of action is usually to prepare the body for [[#Defibrillation|defibrillation]]. Cloning no longer exists on /tg/station since Feb, 2020.

===Revival methods===
====[[File:Defib.png]]Defibrillation====
The [[Medical_items#Defibrillator|defibrillator]] can shock a body back to life. Defibrillation does not have a timed window (as of Jan 2020), but the heart will [[#Organ_damage|decay]] in only 4 minutes and must typically be [[Surgery#Coronary_Bypass|repaired]] for a late defibrillation to work. Other [[#Organ_table|organs]] may be damaged as well.

# Examine the body. Does it say they '''committed suicide''' or that their '''soul has departed'''? Nothing you can do for them, fast track them to the [[morgue]].
# If the body has this icon [[File:Huddefib.gif|32px]] on your [[Medical_items#Health_Scanner_HUD|health scanner hud]] it means its soul is still online and has not used the "Do Not Resuscitate" button. Inject the patient with some [[Guide_to_chemistry#Formaldehyde|formaldehyde]] ([[General_items#Epinephrine_MediPen|medipens]] have some) or buckle them to a [[#Lifeform_Stasis_Units|Stasis Bed]] to stop the organ decay, and scan them with a [[Medical_items#Health_Analyzer|health analyzer]]. Do they have more than 180 brute or burn damage (tracked separately, having 179 of each is fine)? If so, you must heal the corpse with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Synthflesh|synthflesh]] or [[Surgery#Tend_Wounds|surgery]] until it has under 180 brute and burn. You can buy [[Guide_to_chemistry#Synthflesh|synthflesh]] from the [[Vending_machines#NanoMed_Plus|NanoMed Plus]] or have it made in [[Guide_to_chemistry#Synthflesh|chemistry]].
# If the [[Medical_items#Health_Analyzer|health analyzer]] says the patient's heart is non-functional, the heart must be [[Surgery#Coronary_Bypass|repaired]] or [[Surgery#Organ_Manipulation|replaced]].
# If the patient is wearing a space suit or [[Clothing_and_Accessories#Hardsuits|hardsuit]], take it off. To take it off, drag the sprite of the patient onto yours, and click the hardsuit in the menu that pops up.
# [[File:Husk.png]] If the body is a grey husk see [[#Husk|husk]].
# If the patient is missing too much blood, do a [[#Bleeding|blood transfusion]].
# If the patient has large amounts of bad reagents, do a [[Surgery#Stomach_Pump|stomach pump]].
# Once the patient is prepared, equip your [[Medical_items#Defibrillator|defib]]. The [[Medical_items#Defibrillator|large one]] goes on your backpack slot, and the [[Medical_items#Compact_Defibrillator|compact defib]] that the [[CMO]] gets goes on your belt slot. Then empty both of your hands, and click the new defib hud icon on your top left to take out the paddles. Activate/click the paddles with the hand you're holding them in to wield them in both hands. Stop dragging the patient (with '''H''' or '''delete''') or you will be shocked. Switch to '''help''' [[File:Intent_Help.png]] intent, target the chest, and then click on the patient. After a few seconds, you'll deliver an electric shock.
# If the defib pings and says the resuscitation was successful, use [[#Treatment|medicine]] on them and unbuckle them from the [[#Lifeform_Stasis_Units|Stasis Bed]] to make them start healing up. If the defib instead says they have severe tissue damage, they are either a [[#Husk|husk]], have a non-functional crucial organ or have more than 180 brute or burn damage, and needs to be repaired more.

A successful defibrillation will instantly heal some basic damage and put the patient in a hardcrit state. If the revived patient had less damage than that the defib will instead deal suffocation damage to put them in crit.

====Strange Reagent====
Another option for revival is the [[Guide_to_chemistry|chemical]] [[Guide_to_chemistry#Strange_Reagent|strange reagent]], which works similarly to [[#Defibrillator|defibrillation]], except with slightly different requirements (read them [[Guide_to_chemistry#Strange_Reagent|here]]). Use the same steps to prepare the body as before [[#Defibrillator|defibrillation]], except this revival method also restores some blood levels and organ damage depending on how much of the reagent you use. Muest be [[Guide_to_chemistry#Ingest|ingested]].

====Replica Pod cloning====
If you can't find the patient's brain your only choice is try to turn them into a [[Podman|podperson]]. See [[Guide_to_hydroponics#Replica_Pod_Cloning|here]] how. Note there is no way for you to see if a brainless body has a soul or not, since the examine message won't tell you. If the patient has no blood, you can give blood to the corpse, then use that for podding.

====Revival surgery====
[[Surgery#Revival|Revival surgery]] is an optional way to bring people back to life. See the [[Surgery#Revival|surgery]] page for details. This may be useful for races without hearts since it makes you defibrillate the head instead of the heart.

===Typical cases of death===
The following tables contain suggested actions for when you encounter corpses, heads or brains.

====Normal dead body====

====[[File:Husk.png|32px]]Husk====
Typically a victim of heavy [[#Burns|burn damage]]. It can be unhusked with 100u [[Guide_to_chemistry#Synthflesh|synthflesh]] or 5u [[Guide_to_chemistry#Rezadone|rezadone]]. The corpse must have under 50 burn damage for it to work. Proceed to [[#Revival_methods|revival methods]] afterwards. If unhusking doesn't work then the corpse may be a [[Changeling|changeling]] victim. A Changeling victim needs a brain transplant to be revivable.

====Completely messed up corpse====
A body could be missing all limbs except head, be husked, bloodless, contaminated with radiation and have 600 damage etc. In these cases the simple solution is to [[Surgery#Amputation|amputate]] the head and attach it to a fresh body with [[Surgery#Prosthetic_Replacement|prosthetic replacement]]. Then use your [[#Revival_methods|revival method]] of choice.

== Afternote ==
'''PLEASE NOTE''' In the morgue there are lights on the side of the trays. The red light means there is a dead body with no ghost occupying it. Green light means there is a body with a ghost in it, which means you should attempt to [[#Revival_methods|revive]] it. The green light is normally accompanied by a beeping sound as well, which can be turned off by alt-clicking the tray. If you aren't serious about healing someone, don't give up halfway. Get proper medical staff to help them. At least try to have a doctor save them.

Medical care is serious business, and going halfway with your medical treatment can result in someone dying or worse. Make sure you know what you're doing before you try to fix someone up!

If you're going to treat someone, you're going to have to know what tools you need, how to identify injuries, what machinery and facilities you must use, and how to keep people from dying while in treatment.

== Identification ==

First of all, grab a [[File:MedGlasses.png]] [[Medical_items#Health_Scanner_HUD|Health Scanner HUD]] from the medical storage and wear it. It shows the patient's overall health condition and therefore shows you instantly whom you should treat first from a group of patients. Identification is the first and foremost step in administering treatment. Here are ways to identify the type of injuries a person may have:

=== Types of damage ===

* There are four primary kinds of damage: '''Suffocation''', '''brute''', '''burn''', and '''toxin.''' These damage types have first aid kits associated with them and are therefore treatable without needing further medical equipment. The standard white first aid kit has materials to treat '''brute''', '''burn''', and '''bleeding'''
* There are additional kinds of damage that occur less often: '''cellular''', '''organ damage''', and '''bleeding'''
* You want the patient to be as healthy as possible, so you have to heal all of these, and they have to be '''treated individually''' (unless you use a chemical which heals multiple damage types at once).
* The overall health status (from 100% to -100%) is determined by adding these damages together, except brain damage. If there are 0 damages, the patient is '''perfectly healthy (100%)'''.
* If the patient has taken a total of about 100 damage (depending on mood), he will be in a '''critical condition (0%)'''; lying on the ground, unresponsive and ''gasping'' for air. When in this condition, the patient cannot breathe on their own and will gradually take suffocation damage until '''death (-100%)'''. This kills the patient.
* Bleeding is different from other types of damage. See below for a more extensive explanation.

* You can identify these different damage types quickly by using your [[PDA]] with the Med-U Cartridge inside and Health Scanning enabled, or a [[Medical_items#Health_Analyzer|Health Analyzer]] on the patient. You can also '''examine''' the patient (shift-click), but it only shows basic information.
* If a Health Analyzer or a PDA with a Med-U Cartridge is not available, '''observing''' the patient and their surroundings will help with diagnosis:
:* If there is a pile of '''vomit''' next to, or under the patient then they are most likely suffering from [[Guide_to_medicine#Toxins|toxin damage]].
:* If there is blood everywhere, blood on the person dying, or the patient has '''severe bruises''', they are suffering from [[Guide_to_medicine#Brute_Damage|brute damage]].
:* If the patient has black scars across their body and no blood, or the patient has '''severe burns''', they have been [[Guide_to_medicine#Burns|severely burned]].
:* If the patient is gasping, they are most likely [[Guide_to_medicine#Suffocation|suffocating]].
:* If the patient keeps fainting, trails drips of blood as they walk or is unresponsive to other forms of "healing" they may be [[Guide_to_medicine#Bleeding|bleeding]] or be suffering from blood-loss
:* If the patient reports other symptoms such as headaches, coughing or vomiting blood, they most likely have a [[Infections|virus]].

===Your first patient===

Your patient can arrive in two ways:

'''1. The patient walks in and needs treatment.'''
:''"PLS DOC HLEP!!"'' You can see the patient's overall health status with your Health Scanner HUD with just a glance. However, this will only tell you how serious the situation is and how quickly you need to act.

:How to act:

:* Use your PDA or a [[Medical_items#Health_Analyzer|Health Analyzer]] on the patient to identify the damage type.
:* Proceed with the necessary [[#Treatment|treatment found in the next chapter]].

'''2. The patient is dragged into Medbay and is in critical condition.'''
:The patient is unresponsive to the environment, on the floor, and gasping for air.

:How to act:

:* The first thing you should do is administer [[Guide_to_chemistry#Epinephrine|Epinephrine]]. [[Guide_to_chemistry#Epinephrine|Epinephrine]] stops the general decline of the critical patient's health and helps treat wounds if the patient is in crit. Don't give them 30 or more units of it, as that will cause toxin damage.
:* If the patient is bleeding, apply a medical gauze [[File:Gauze.png]]. Dragging a bleeding patient will quickly drain their blood, unless you use a roller bed.
:* If [[Guide_to_chemistry#Epinephrine|Epinephrine]] is not available, immediately perform [[#CPR|CPR]] a few times to ensure the patient stays alive until you do the next step. Make sure they're also not suffering from any other significant problems, like being on fire, or in a low-pressure environment.
::'''NOTE: CPR on its own will not heal someone unless they are only suffering from suffocation damage. If they are in crit because of brute/burn/toxins/cellular damage it will only keep them from dying.'''
:* Now you have several options to choose between:
:# Take the patient to a [[#Sleeper|sleeper]]. Drag the patient on top of it, then click on the sleeper to close it and administer medicine.
:# Take the patient to a [[#Lifeform_Stasis_Units|stasis bed]]. Drag the patient until on top of it, then click-drag the patient to the bed to buckle. Give the patient [[Guide_to_chemistry|medicine]] and then click the stasis bed to unbuckle.
:# Strip the patient's space suit off if they have one and put the patient into a [[Medical_items#Cryogenics_Chamber_.26_Freezer|cryochamber]], wait for them to heal up and eject.
:# Just use bruise packs, ointments or other appropriate medication. See [[#Treatment|next section]] for examples.

== Treatment ==

===[[File:O2med.png]] Suffocation===
This is the first and most important to look out for. It is not visible on the body, but people suffering from it will ''gasp for air''. If you take 50 or more suffocation damage, you faint. On the Health Analyzer, it is the leftmost, blue damage type.

'''Ways of getting damaged:'''

* Being in an area without enough oxygen present will suffocate you.
* Missing a significant amount of blood will deal suffocation damage over time.
* Once you are in critical condition, you slowly take suffocation damage.
* Some [[Guide_to_chemistry##Medicines|medicines]] and [[Guide_to_chemistry#Aranesp|drugs]] can deal suffocation damage.
* Some poisons, like [[Cyanide]], deal suffocation damage.
* Some [[Virus|virus]] symptoms can cause suffocation.
* Missing a pair of lungs.
* Missing a heart, or suffering a heart attack.

'''Treatment:'''

* If a person is in crit, you can CPR{{anchor|CPR}} them. Remove your and patient's mask and helmet, switch to help intent and click on them.
* If a person is not in critical condition, and they have no bad chemicals in their bloodstream, placing them in an oxygen-filled area will suffice.
* [[Epinephrine]] stops the suffocation damage that is dealt from being in a crit state.
* [[Salbutamol]] quickly treats suffocation damage.
* [[Cryoxadone]] in a [[Medical_items#Cryogenics Tube & Freezer|cryotube]] or a very cold environment heal most types of damage, including suffocation.
* [[Orange juice]] isn't the most effective cure, but it does help a bit when no other options are available
* If a person is missing a heart, replace their heart or give them [[Guide_to_chemistry#Corazone|Corazone]].
* If a person's heart is unstable, use a [[defibrillator]] and their heart should return to normal, or give them [[Guide_to_chemistry#Corazone|Corazone]]. Other electric shocks might be able to restore their heartbeat.

===[[File:Brutefak.png]] Brute===
This is a straight-forward damage category. This is the far right damage type on Health Analyzer. Brute wounds are visible, and limb-specific.

'''Ways of getting damaged:'''

* Being physically hit by almost anything does brute damage.
* Some [[Guide_to_chemistry#Fluorosulfuric_Acid|chemicals]] can deal brute damage.

'''Treatment:'''

* If a person is bleeding, use bandages to prevent blood loss.
* Tend Wounds surgery can be used to fully remove brute damage. Have Science research higher levels of surgery and then sync the surgery console in order to utilise better types of Tend Wounds.
* Bruise packs can be applied to the damaged limb. Use a medical scanner or ask the patient to examine themselves.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Bicaridine|Bicaridine]] (in sleepers) and [[Guide_to_chemistry#Styptic_Powder|Styptic Powder]] (found in brute patches) heal brute damage over time.
* [[Surgery#Reconstruction|Reconstruction]] surgery will heal brute and burn damage.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Salicyclic_Acid|Salicyclic Acid]] heals brute damage over time, slowly if below 50 brute damage and quickly if above 50.
* [[Saline-glucose solution]] heals brute slowly.
* [[Cryoxadone]] in a [[Medical_items#Cryogenics Tube & Freezer|cryotube]] or a very cold environment heal most types of damage, including brute.
* Food can heal brute damage slowly.
* Milk, bilk, soy milk, soy latte, [[Guide_to_food_and_drinks#Coffee_Latte|cafe latte]], and cream can heal it very slowly.
* There are some job-specific ways of healing it: Donuts heal security, bananas and banana juice heal clowns and monkeys, "nothing" in mime's bottle of nothing heals mimes.
* If the patient has above 80% health then they can use the Sleep verb or be put to sleep (e.g. morphine) and it'll heal brute, burn, toxin and stamina damage. This works faster on beds and tables.

===[[File:Bmed.png]] Burns===

This is a straight-forward damage category. This is the damage type second to the right on Health Analyzer. Burns are visible, and limb-specific.

'''Ways of getting damaged:'''

* Temperatures too high or too low cause burn damage. That includes coldness of space and being set on fire.
* Lasers deal burn damage.
* Some [[Guide_to_chemistry#Phlogiston|chemicals]] deal burn damage.
* Electric shocks deal burn damage.

'''Treatment:'''

* Tend Wounds surgery can be used to fully remove burn damage. Have Science research higher levels of surgery and then sync the surgery console in order to utilise better types of Tend Wounds.
* Ointments can be applied to the damaged limb. Use a medical scanner or ask the patient to examine themselves.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Kelotane|Kelotane]] (in sleepers) and [[Guide_to_chemistry#Silver_Sulfadiazine|Silver Sulfadiazine]] (found in brute patches) heal burn damage over time.
* [[Surgery#Reconstruction|Reconstruction]] surgery will heal brute and burn damage.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Oxandrolone|Oxandrolone]] heals burn damage over time, slowly if under 50 burn damage and quickly if over 50.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Saline-Glucose_Solution|Saline-glucose solution]] heals burn slowly.
* [[Cryoxadone]] in a [[Medical_items#Cryogenics Tube & Freezer|cryotube]] or a very cold environment heal most types of damage, including burn.
* [[Tomato juice]] can heal it very slowly.
* There are some job-specific ways of healing it: Donuts heal security, bananas and banana juice heal clowns and monkeys, "nothing" in mime's bottle of nothing heals mimes.
* If the patient has above 80% health then they can use the Sleep verb or be put to sleep (e.g. morphine) and it'll heal brute, burn, toxin and stamina damage. This works faster on beds and tables.

===[[File:Tmed.png]] Toxins===
This is the second from the left on the Health Analyzer. It is not visible on the person's health doll. Thankfully it is easy to treat.

'''Ways of getting damaged:'''

* Breathing plasma deals toxic damage.
* Many [[Guide_to_chemistry#Toxins|chemicals]] deal toxic damage.
* Drinking a lot of alcohol can hurt your liver and deal toxic damage.
* A severely damaged or missing liver will deal toxic damage. Liver failure will also prevent the patient from processing any reagents.
* High doses of [[radiation]] deal toxic damage.
* Mind the difference between chemical named [[Guide_to_chemistry#Toxin|"toxin"]] and toxic damage.

'''Treatment:'''

* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Antitoxin|Antitoxin]] heals toxic damage and purges poison.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Charcoal|Charcoal]] heals toxic damage and purges all other chemicals. Cannot OD.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Pentetic_Acid|Pentetic acid]] heals toxic damage and purges all other chemicals quickly. Also purges [[radiation]].
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Calomel|Calomel]] purges toxic chemicals more quickly than pentetic acid but doesn't heal toxic damage, and will '''deal''' toxic damage if the patient has 20 health or more.
* [[Cryoxadone]] in a [[Medical_items#Cryogenics Tube & Freezer|cryotube]] or a very cold environment heal most types of damage, including toxic.
* Lime juice, tea, iced tea can slowly heal it.
* Vomiting heals some toxic damage. You usually can't control it, however.
* If patient has a failing liver, a liver transplant will stop the toxin damage caused by that liver, and will allow chemicals to work in the body.
* If the patient has above 80% health then they can use the Sleep verb or be put to sleep (e.g. morphine) and it'll heal brute, burn, toxin and stamina damage. This works faster on beds and tables.

===[[File:Blood Pack.png]] Bleeding===
After a limb sustains 30 brute damage, it will start bleeding. Bleeding can also be caused by cuts from sharp objects.

IVs and gauze [[File:Gauze.png]] will provide relief from bleeding. [[File:IV Drip.png]]

A [[Guide_to_food_and_drinks#Bloody_Mary|Bloody Mary]] will also replenish lost blood.

'''WARNING: Incorrect blood types are toxic to the patient, and will not replenish their blood!'''

'''Treating bloodloss:'''
# Bandage wound with a medical gauze to stop bleeding.
# Locate brute damage.
# Treat brute damages above ~30 to halt bleeding.
# Assess blood levels, if low or critical, proceed with blood transfusion.
# If a blood transfusion is unavailable, blood will be naturally produced by the body, albeit slowly.
# Iron and most foods will improve blood regeneration.

'''Blood transfusion:'''
# Use medical scanner on patient to find blood type.
# Obtain blood pack from [[surgery]], [[virology]], or [[cargo]].
# Make sure IV drip is in the blue "inject" mode. You toggle this by clicking the IV drip when nothing is attached to it.
# Attach blood pack to IV drip.
# Click-drag IV drip onto patient.
# Check up on patient's blood levels regularly, this process moves quickly.
# Detach patient from IV drip by click-dragging the IV drip onto the patient again, or simply clicking the IV. If you forget this the patient will take some brute damage from the needle being ripped out.
# Detach blood pack by clicking on the IV drip.

'''Blood donation:'''
# Make sure IV drip is in the red "take" mode. You toggle this by clicking the IV drip when nothing is attached to it.
# Attach a beaker or an empty blood pack to IV drip.
# Attach to a donor by click-dragging it onto the donor.
# Blood pack will automatically fill. The alarm will sound if patient's blood levels reach critical.
# Detach IV drip by click-dragging it onto the donor again or simply clicking the IV.
# Click on IV drip to eject the beaker or blood pack. Label appropriately.

=== [[File:Clone.gif]] Cellular damage ===

Rare kind of damage. It shows up on scanners and is visible on examination, but exact numbers aren't shown.

'''Ways of getting damaged:'''

* Slimes. They deal cellular damage when they feed on someone.
* Cloned people will have cellular damage, unless the cloner is fully upgraded and the cloning was 100% complete.
* Decloners from [[Abductor]]s or [[Guide_to_research_and_development|R&D]].

'''Treatment:'''

* [[Cryoxadone]] in a [[#Cryogenics_Tube|cryotube]] is the most common way to heal cellular damage.
* [[Rezadone]] instantly heals all cellular damage, even with only a 1 unit pill, and does not require a cryotube. But it's hard to get.

Keep in mind that cellular damage is not related to [[Guide_to_genetics#Mutations_and_Their_Consequences|genetic disabilities]] (which must be treated with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Mutadone|mutadone]])! They are different things.

=== [[File:Liver_organ.png]] Organ damage ===

Organ damage will cause side-effects as they reach thresholds, which will alert the owner when passed. If an organ shows up as "non-functional", that means its failing, and will not work, and will cause some life-threatening ailments depending on which organ it is. There is currently no way to see the exact damage of each organ, but for the most part they function on low-threshold, high-threshold, and failing, which will show up as "mildly damaged", "severely damaged", and "non-functional" lists when you scan someone with a medical scanner. Note that all the listed organs decay over time, which is the most common way they'll get damaged- but [[Surgery#Cybernetic_Organs|synthetic organs]] do not! The best way to avoid any of these side-effects is to replace your fleshy organs for [[Surgery#Cybernetic_Organs|metallic ones]], though these too come with downsides in the form of EMP vulnerability.

'''Ways of getting damaged:'''

* Flashes and sharp objects in the eyes (eyes)
* Loud noises (ears)
* Appendicitis (appendix)
* Otherwise, an organ that's not in a living body (thus is on the ground or in a dead body) will decay if not held in a freezer, fridge, morgue unit, or [[Machines#Smartfridge|organ smartfridge]]. Organs will go from perfectly healthy to broken in 15 minutes, except for hearts, which will decay completely in 3 minutes, and brains, which will decay completely in 30 minutes.

'''Treatment:'''

* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Oculine|Oculine]] will rapidly fix damaged eyes, clearing any shortsightedness/blindness caused by damage.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Inacusiate|Inacusiate]] will immediately fix damaged ears to a perfect state.
* Muscled Veins surgery enables patients to be able to survive without a heart.
* Lobectomy surgery restores a lung to working order but can only be done once. The lobectomy step has a 95% chance of success, so use some form of sterilizer to ensure you don't accidentally get blood inside your patient's lungs!
* Coronary Bypass surgery restores a heart to working order if it was too damaged to work before, but can only be done once. Both incising the heart and grafting the bypass have a 90% chance to succeed, and failing them will cause heart damage and massive amounts of bleeding - so be sure to work with ideal conditions, proper tools, and sterilizer!
* Otherwise, time and health will fix most organs (not the brain!). The healthier you are, the faster this rate goes, with a base rate of around half an hour for an organ to go from max damage to perfectly healthy. Taking vitamins increases your health, and thus increases this rate, so eat smart!

'''Side-Effects:'''

* Damaged ears will occasionally flare up with tinnitus, causing very brief deafness, with increasingly frequent bouts until the ears are non-functional, at which point you become deaf.
* Damaged eyes will grow increasingly short-sighted, until finally becoming blind when non-functional.
* Damaged lungs will increase the rate at which you breath by 25%, and will collapse if non-functional, causing rapid suffocation. Life-threatening!
* A non-functional appendix will burst, causing toxin damage until the organ is removed. Life-threatening!
* A damaged heart will increase the rate at which you breath by 25%, and will cease when non-functional, causing immediate heart attack. Life-threatening!
* A damaged stomach will be unable to hold nutriment and food down as easily, causing vomiting depending on the amount of food consumed and the damage of the stomach. A non-functional stomach does not digest any food.

====Organ table====
Each organ has 100 max hp, except the brain which has 200.

=== [[File:Brain.png]] Brain damage ===

Nasty. Randomly causes [[Guide_to_Traumas|brain traumas]] and other problems. If a brain reaches 0% health, the person dies. To be able to see exact brain health, you need an advanced health analyzer, which [[CMO]] gets one of by default. Getting killed and cloned does not cure brain traumas.

'''Ways of getting damaged:'''

* Imperfect cloning.
* Certain chemicals such as [[Guide_to_chemistry#Mercury|mercury]], [[Guide_to_chemistry#Impedrezene|impedrezene]], or [[Guide_to_chemistry#Fentanyl|fentanyl]]
* Abusing certain [[Guide_to_chemistry#Narcotics|narcotics]].
* [[Chaplain]]'s bible applied to the head.
* [[Blood Cult|Unholy Water]]
* [[Infections#Infection_Listings|Brainrot]]
* Earthsblood from [[Guide_to_hydroponics#Plants|Ambrosia Gaia]].

'''Treatment:'''

* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Mannitol|Mannitol]] pills or injections slowly cure brain damage, but does not cure [[Guide_to_Traumas|brain traumas]].
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Neurine|Neurine]] will treat the most '''basic''' brain traumas. These traumas have no prefix on health analyzer.
* [[Surgery#Brain_Surgery|Brain Surgery]], will also cure '''severe''' traumas. You can identify severe brain traumas by the prefix "severe" on health analyzer. [[Nanites#Healing_Programs|Nanites]] can cure these and lower level traumas.
* [[Surgery#Lobotomy|Lobotomy]] will cure '''deep-rooted brain traumas'''. You can identify deep-rooted brain traumas by the prefix "deep-rooted" on health analyzer. Some [[Virus#Symptoms_Table|viruses]] can cure these and lower level traumas.
* '''Permanent''' brain traumas are either permanent or curable with magic, which is typically unavailable. Failing a lobotomy can cause these traumas. You can identify permanent brain traumas by the prefix "permanent" on health analyzer. If you get one of these, then assume "this is life now".

=== [[File:DoubleESword.png]] Dismemberment ===

Patients may lose their head, legs or arms. A patient missing arms can't hold items or interact with objects. Missing legs will slow down a patient, but missing both legs also prevents them from holding any items unless they're buckled to a chair. Missing both arms and legs Patients missing a head will die in most cases as their body lacks its brain.

Examining a patient will describe any missing limbs.

'''Ways of getting damaged:'''
* Strong physical forces, such as explosions.
* Getting hit by strong, sharp objects such as swords.
** Patients who experience severe trauma to the chest may have their organs spill out, but the torso will remain intact.
* Amputation via [[surgery]].

'''Treatment:'''
* [[Surgery#Prosthetic_Replacement|Prosthetic replacement]] via [[surgery]].
** Cyborg limbs may be used. Robotics can produce cyborg limbs, but there is also a crate of cheap prosthetic limbs in Medbay Storage.
** Organic limbs may be used. In most cases a detached limb can be found and reattached. However, all the limb's damage will be transferred to the patient, so be ready to treat brute and bleeding. Any organic limb will also cause toxin damage when replaced.
** Synthetic limbs from a [[Limb Grower|limb grower]] may be used. The limb grower can only produce arms and legs, unless [[Emag|emagged]].

== Using Stasis Beds, Cryogenics and Sleepers ==
{{anchor|Using Sleepers and Cryogenics}}

=== [[File:Stasis_bed_off.png]][[Medical_items#Lifeform_Stasis_Unit|Lifeform Stasis Units]]===
These "[[Medical_items#Lifeform_Stasis_Unit|Stasis Beds]]" can be found in [[Medbay|medbay]]. They are [[Machines#Lifeform_Stasis_Unit|constructable]] [[Guide_to_construction#Machines|machines]]. You can buckle patients to them to put them into '''stasis'''. While in stasis they no longer bleed, no longer process [[Guide_to_chemistry|reagents]] or [[Infections|diseases]] (good or bad), and if [[#Death|dead]] it freezes their [[#Death|defibrillation timer]]. Buckle [[Health#Critical_Status|badly hurt]] or [[#Death|dead]] patients on them to be able to safely treat them without them dying. Give them any [[Guide_to_chemistry#Core_Healing_Medicines|medicine]] they need and then remove the patients from the stasis bed so the medication starts healing them. The patient is awake and fully aware while in stasis. You can turn the beds off or on with alt-click.

=== [[File:Cryo.gif]] [[Medical_items#Cryogenics Tube & Freezer|Cryogenics Tube]] ===
{{anchor|Cryo Tube}}
Cryotube uses the fact that [[cryoxadone]] is effective at healing all types of damage, but only works in cold environments. '''Use it mainly to heal cellular damage''', or if you're out of other options/unsure what to do. This is slow and forces the patient to sleep, so prefer using brute/fire patches for common damage types.

[[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Cryogenics_Tube|Cryotubes can also be upgraded by science parts.]] Better matter bins allow them to work slightly faster and more efficiently.

How to prepare '''(This needs to be done at the start of every round!)''':
# Wrench the oxygen canisters to connect them to the tubes and the freezer.
# Turn on the [[Atmospherics_items#Freezer|freezer]]. Set it to lowest temperature available.
# Load beakers with [[Guide_to_chemistry|chemicals]]. A common and highly effective mix for general use is [[cryoxadone]], [[Guide_to_chemistry#Clonexadone|clonexadone]] and [[mannitol]].
#* All [[Guide_to_chemistry|chemicals]] will work, so you can add anything. This is the job of [[chemist]]s.
#* Be sure to only add chemicals that you can't overdose on, as patients in cryo will receive large doses of all chemicals in the beaker.
# Set the tubes to Auto instead of Manual, so they'll open after the patient is healed. Otherwise, they'll be trapped in until someone opens the tube from outside.

How to use:

# Ensure the cryo tube is open first. If not, open it.
# Pull the person on top of the tube.
# Remove all clothes that prevent freezing, such as hardsuits. Else it won't work.
# Close the cryo tube with its menu, or click on them with your mouse and drag their sprite to the tube.
# Open the tube menu and turn it on. If their health starts to improve (sometimes it takes a moment to start), they're all set. If not, make sure everything is set up properly (cryoxadone in the tubes? pressure in the canisters?).
# Turning it on will put the patient to sleep.
# If set to auto, the tube will turn off and pop open automatically.
# Shake the person to get them up (switch to help intent and click on them multiple times).
# Let them redress (or do it for them) then kick them out.
 
If you ever see this: 
[[File:Trapped_in_cryo.png]]

Then those people are trapped in powered off cryo tubes. Run to them immediately and either turn the tubes ON or let the patients out! Make sure cryo tube doors are also set to AUTO and not MANUAL. And make sure the patients are actually healing, or else you have to try other treatments instead.

=== [[File:Sleeper.gif]] [[Medical_items#Sleeper|Sleeper]] ===

Sleepers allow you to inject various chemicals, and have unlimited stocks of them. Sleepers cannot inject most chemicals when the patient's health is very low, with the exception of injecting [[epinephrine]].

Sleepers also show you chemicals present in person's bloodstream.

Scientists can produce upgraded parts for [[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Sleeper|sleepers]].

How to use:
# Ensure the sleeper is open. If it's not, open it.
# Pull the patient near the sleeper.
# Click and hold on the patient, move the cursor to the sleeper, then release. This puts the patient inside.
# Click on the sleeper to open the menu.
# Inject chemicals they need. (See the [[Machines#Sleeper|list of sleeper chemicals]] available).
# Open the sleeper and remove the patient.

== Rarer Cases ==

These situations are not as common as normal damages, but they are still VERY LIKELY to happen. AND most of these cases are also more severe, and it is essential to be fucking fast and know this stuff! '''So read up, these are the things that will separate quacks from real doctors!'''

===Overdose===
Giving too much of some chemicals or drugs can cause an overdose. This means that you aren't doing your job correctly and you may even kill the patient if you don't stop doing it! Check the ''overdose threshold'' column in the [[Guide_to_chemistry#Medicines|guide to chemistry]] before you use a medicine.

How to treat:
* [[Charcoal]] purges chemicals slowly and can help with toxin damage.
* [[Calomel]] purges chemicals quickly and is relatively easy to make in chemistry.
* [[Pentetic acid]] clears all chemicals from the body very quickly.

===[[File:Hudill.png]] Disease===

Diseases are the most frustrating thing you will deal with, as it spreads, and can infect you as well. A disease can be identified easily with the Health Scanner HUD, it giving an unhappy-face-icon next to the patient. PDA or a Health Analyzer will give more detailed information about the disease and its cure.

How to Treat:
# Suit up in [[Clothes_and_internals#bodywear|anti-viral equipment]].
# Isolate the patient from public areas (if they have an infectious disease).
# Use your Health Analyzer or PDA to see the cure for the disease (see the [[Understanding stats|list of possible cures]]). This won't work if the disease is stealthy.
# If the virus is stealthy, you must take a blood sample to a PanD.E.M.I.C 2200 to see the cure.
# Administer the chemical element needed OR if the virologist has made a vaccine, administering one unit of it will instantly cure and immunize.
# Monitor the patient's condition and do not leave them until they are clear and have become resistant to the disease.
# Check if you are infected after dealing with the patient.
After:
* If you did not have the vaccine for the disease, see [[Infections#How_to_create_a_vaccine|How to create a vaccine]].

Cloned people lose their immunity and can be reinfected.

===Blindness===
The person cannot see, they usually will scream about this endlessly.

How to treat:
* If vision is just blurry, give [[Guide_to_plants#Carrot|carrot]]s or a pair of [[prescription glasses]].
* If they are completely blind, [[Surgery#Eye surgery|eye surgery]].
* [[Omnizine]] has a chance of curing blindness while slowly healing eye damage.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Oculine|Oculine]] can be made by chemistry, and will heal all eye damage.

===Deafness===
The person cannot hear, they are usually unresponsive to verbal communication and can't even hear themselves talking.

What causes it:
* Genetic mutations can cause genetic deafness.
* Ear damage can render a person deaf temporarily, but extreme ear damage causes permanent deafness.
* Explosions cause ear damage.
* Flashbangs cause ear damage.

How to treat:
* Most ear damage will heal on its own.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry#Inacusiate|Inacusiate]] heals minor ear damage instantly.
* Put earmuffs on the patient and minor ear damage will quickly heal.
* Mutadone can reset genetic mutations including deafness.

===Genetic Disabilities===
Disabilities cannot be cured by normal medical tools. If a patient appears to be unable to move and/or they speak in very short sentences, they most likely have a genetic disability.

How to treat:
* Ask a competent [[geneticist]] to remove the bad mutation.
* A one unit [[Guide_to_chemistry#Mutadone|mutadone]] pill or injection will instantly cure all genetic abnormalities. This includes beneficial ones.

===[[Health#Radiation|Radiation]]===
Radiation causes people to lose hair, puke, black out, and take steady toxin damage. It may cause people to mutate and gain genetic disabilities as well. Radiation either comes from space radiation surges, after which crew members will "feel strange" and begin to vomit, but more likely you'll be treating engineers who got too close to the supermatter, atmos techs (or bystanders) doing badly contained fusion work, or geneticists and people undergoing genetic testing who've stuck themselves with too many SE injectors.

A medical analyzer will only say whether a patient is irradiated or not, so you need a Geiger counter or advanced medical analyzer to see the exact radiation levels of a patient.

How to treat:
* If you have [[potassium iodide]] or [[pentetic acid]], use them. These will remove the radiation before it poisons the patient further.
* Give the patient a shower to help lower radiation levels.
* Else, treat with [[charcoal]] or toxin-healing chems until the radiation levels have subsided.
* Heavily irradiated patients will irradiate anyone around them. Try to isolate the patient, check rads on whoever dragged them in, and get yourself treated as well.
* If they were sitting by the SM for a while before someone got them out, or if atmos has been misbehaving and things have really gone to shit, the (probably dead) patient's clothes or other items could be contaminated. Keep in mind that you can scan items with a Geiger, although if things have gotten to this point you are probably too busy with people to have time to do that. Put their old body somewhere away from the cloner, at least.

===Hallucinations===
This nasty effect causes the victim to see (usually deadly) objects in his and others' hands, along with random visions of people and creatures attacking him, causing stamina damage. Extremely unpleasant. Caused by [[Changeling|changelings]], [[Guide_to_chemistry#Mindbreaker_Toxin|mindbreaker toxin]],[[supermatter]], and some bad 'shrooms.

How to treat:
* [[Synaptizine]] is good for removing hallucinations. But can cause light toxin damage.
* [[Haloperidol]] is not as good as synaptizine at removing hallucinations, but it will also quickly purge drugs that are likely causing them.

==[[File:Huddead.png|32px]] Death==
So your patient is dead. There are several [[#Typical_cases_of_death|typical cases of death]]. If your patient is a [[#Normal_dead_body|normal dead body]] though (with a head and brain), your first course of action is usually to prepare the body for [[#Defibrillation|defibrillation]]. Cloning no longer exists on /tg/station since Feb, 2020.

===Revival methods===
====[[File:Defib.png]]Defibrillation====
The [[Medical_items#Defibrillator|defibrillator]] can shock a body back to life. Defibrillation does not have a timed window (as of Jan 2020), but the heart will [[#Organ_damage|decay]] in only 4 minutes and must typically be [[Surgery#Coronary_Bypass|repaired]] for a late defibrillation to work. Other [[#Organ_table|organs]] may be damaged as well.

# Examine the body. Does it say they '''committed suicide''' or that their '''soul has departed'''? Nothing you can do for them, fast track them to the [[morgue]].
# If the body has this icon [[File:Huddefib.gif|32px]] on your [[Medical_items#Health_Scanner_HUD|health scanner hud]] it means its soul is still online and has not used the "Do Not Resuscitate" button. Inject the patient with some [[Guide_to_chemistry#Formaldehyde|formaldehyde]] ([[General_items#Epinephrine_MediPen|medipens]] have some) or buckle them to a [[#Lifeform_Stasis_Units|Stasis Bed]] to stop the organ decay, and scan them with a [[Medical_items#Health_Analyzer|health analyzer]]. Do they have more than 180 brute or burn damage (tracked separately, having 179 of each is fine)? If so, you must heal the corpse with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Synthflesh|synthflesh]] or [[Surgery#Tend_Wounds|surgery]] until it has under 180 brute and burn. You can buy [[Guide_to_chemistry#Synthflesh|synthflesh]] from the [[Vending_machines#NanoMed_Plus|NanoMed Plus]] or have it made in [[Guide_to_chemistry#Synthflesh|chemistry]].
# If the [[Medical_items#Health_Analyzer|health analyzer]] says the patient's heart is non-functional, the heart must be [[Surgery#Coronary_Bypass|repaired]] or [[Surgery#Organ_Manipulation|replaced]].
# If the patient is wearing a space suit or [[Clothing_and_Accessories#Hardsuits|hardsuit]], take it off. To take it off, drag the sprite of the patient onto yours, and click the hardsuit in the menu that pops up.
# [[File:Husk.png]] If the body is a grey husk see [[#Husk|husk]].
# If the patient is missing too much blood, do a [[#Bleeding|blood transfusion]].
# If the patient has large amounts of bad reagents, do a [[Surgery#Stomach_Pump|stomach pump]].
# Once the patient is prepared, equip your [[Medical_items#Defibrillator|defib]]. The [[Medical_items#Defibrillator|large one]] goes on your backpack slot, and the [[Medical_items#Compact_Defibrillator|compact defib]] that the [[CMO]] gets goes on your belt slot. Then empty both of your hands, and click the new defib hud icon on your top left to take out the paddles. Activate/click the paddles with the hand you're holding them in to wield them in both hands. Stop dragging the patient (with '''H''' or '''delete''') or you will be shocked. Switch to '''help''' [[File:Intent_Help.png]] intent, target the chest, and then click on the patient. After a few seconds, you'll deliver an electric shock.
# If the defib pings and says the resuscitation was successful, use [[#Treatment|medicine]] on them and unbuckle them from the [[#Lifeform_Stasis_Units|Stasis Bed]] to make them start healing up. If the defib instead says they have severe tissue damage, they are either a [[#Husk|husk]], have a non-functional crucial organ or have more than 180 brute or burn damage, and needs to be repaired more.

A successful defibrillation will instantly heal some basic damage and put the patient in a hardcrit state. If the revived patient had less damage than that the defib will instead deal suffocation damage to put them in crit.

====Strange Reagent====
Another option for revival is the [[Guide_to_chemistry|chemical]] [[Guide_to_chemistry#Strange_Reagent|strange reagent]], which works similarly to [[#Defibrillator|defibrillation]], except with slightly different requirements (read them [[Guide_to_chemistry#Strange_Reagent|here]]). Use the same steps to prepare the body as before [[#Defibrillator|defibrillation]], except this revival method also restores some blood levels and organ damage depending on how much of the reagent you use. Muest be [[Guide_to_chemistry#Ingest|ingested]].

====Replica Pod cloning====
If you can't find the patient's brain your only choice is try to turn them into a [[Podman|podperson]]. See [[Guide_to_hydroponics#Replica_Pod_Cloning|here]] how. Note there is no way for you to see if a brainless body has a soul or not, since the examine message won't tell you. If the patient has no blood, you can give blood to the corpse, then use that for podding.

====Revival surgery====
[[Surgery#Revival|Revival surgery]] is an optional way to bring people back to life. See the [[Surgery#Revival|surgery]] page for details. This may be useful for races without hearts since it makes you defibrillate the head instead of the heart.

===Typical cases of death===
The following tables contain suggested actions for when you encounter corpses, heads or brains.

====Normal dead body====

|}

====[[File:Husk.png|32px]]Husk====
Typically a victim of heavy [[#Burns|burn damage]]. It can be unhusked with 100u [[Guide_to_chemistry#Synthflesh|synthflesh]] or 5u [[Guide_to_chemistry#Rezadone|rezadone]]. The corpse must have under 50 burn damage for it to work. Proceed to [[#Revival_methods|revival methods]] afterwards. If unhusking doesn't work then the corpse may be a [[Changeling|changeling]] victim. A Changeling victim needs a brain transplant to be revivable.

====Completely messed up corpse====
A body could be missing all limbs except head, be husked, bloodless, contaminated with radiation and have 600 damage etc. In these cases the simple solution is to [[Surgery#Amputation|amputate]] the head and attach it to a fresh body with [[Surgery#Prosthetic_Replacement|prosthetic replacement]]. Then use your [[#Revival_methods|revival method]] of choice.

== Afternote ==
'''PLEASE NOTE''' In the morgue there are lights on the side of the trays. The red light means there is a dead body with no ghost occupying it. Green light means there is a body with a ghost in it, which means you should attempt to [[#Revival_methods|revive]] it. The green light is normally accompanied by a beeping sound as well, which can be turned off by alt-clicking the tray. If you aren't serious about healing someone, don't give up halfway. Get proper medical staff to help them. At least try to have a doctor save them.
