Bubberstation treatment guide

UNDER CONSTRUCTION! This page is still being worked on. Expect changes in the upcoming weeks

Welcome to the extensive Bubberstation treatment guide. Unlike those pesky TG guides, this one should generally be a more representative way of how to do medical work on Bubberstation, and be structured in such a way that you can easily get the most important information right away and not get overrun by dead bodies!

New Patient

Firstly, don't panic. This isn't the end of the world!

Triage

Some patients take priority over others. These are not entirely same as real triage levels, as here we can actually revive people. First look at your patient with shift+click, then look at this handy table:

Medbay Triage Order

Priority	Severity	Description	First response
1	Immediate	In crit, Bleeding wounds, Failed Essential Organs	Stasis bed, Cauterizing wounds, Epipen
2	Deceased	Dead	Stasis bed, Epipen, Formaldehyde
3	Delayed	Fractures, Burn wounds, Mid-Severe damage	Depends on wound
4	Minor	Minor damage	Food, Sleep on bed, Chems

Examining wounds

Obviously you need to at first actually know what wounds your patient has. As medbay staff you are more than well equipped for this, with many tools at your disposal. A health analyzer might sound like your first bet, but there are actually better ways to quickly assess the situation.

HUD

Your medical HUD can quickly tell you how close someone is to crit (Or if they are dead), and if they have a disease. This should never be used alone (Except in combat), and should always be followed by a proper examine if you see someone low.

(Also can help you spot if someone is infected by xenos)

Basic Examine

The examine menu (Accessed by using shift+click on a person) is the most basic way of telling what is wrong in a pinch:

From this we can read that our patient:

- Has a bleeding wound in their chest
- Has severe bruising
- Is in crit (barely conscious)

Generally, this can tell you immediately how fast someone needs treatment, what wounds and damage types (Yes, even oxy and toxin can be deduced!) they might be affected by, etc. Of course, it has its limits, but a good medbay staff can use this to quickly assess why someone is dead/dying, or what kind of problem they might be having. Looking and examining can tell you a lot, see below!

What you can read this way:

- Wounds
- Brute/Burn damage
- Crit status
- Lower than normal blood pressure (pale)
- Irradiation (Glowing green)
- Species (Watch out for slimes and synthetics!)

What you can deduce this way:

- Oxygen damage (Crit with no visible damage, mask/helmet)
- Toxin damage (Crit with no visible damage)
- Presence of diseases/Organ damage (Randomly punching people, puking, igniting)

Health analyzer

Unlike the HUD and Examining, this option is not available at a distance. However, it can tell you a fair bit more than just examining. Generally you use this on anyone who isnt currently bleeding, and to check if you didnt miss anything after administering treatment. It comes with 3 modes: Health scan and Chem scan (Left click, Switch with Z), and wound scan (Right click).
