University of Arkansas hospital, a state agency, is using your tax dollars to mount a defense against the allegedly illegal and unethical imprisonment, assault and battery of my son. They also claim they did not coerce me into staying at the hospital for two weeks instead of leaving them alone with my son, after they used physical and chemical restraints on him numerous times.

UAMS planned to charge my son $4,700 per day for an indefinite time. After they allowed him to leave “AMA”, they sent a bill for $46,000. That was supposedly the “discounted” rate.

This video shows Nurse Susan lying. At about 6:50 she said, “we don’t give benzo’s to TBIs.” Look at this page of the bill.

Nurse Susan said, “we need him to be with it 100% of the time so he can leave.” (See about 10:15. “Sometimes he makes sense and then he doesn’t make sense.” (10:53)

Ya, you dumb #$%$#!. When he makes sense, he says “I want to leave.” Then you force date rape drugs into him and tie him up. Presto! He sounds confused and agitated.

I know AI is not 100% accurate, but here is a discussion I had with ChatGPT about the drugs UAMS billed my son for on the day this video was taken. It is possible they held some of the drugs, which begs the questions: Why did they still bill for the drugs? And what happened to the drugs that were not returned to inventory or administered?

Me: If a TBI patient was administered the following drugs in a 24 hour period, what would be the likely result? Phenobarbital per 120 mg, Dexmedetomidine in 0.9% Nacl Soln X8, trazodone 50 mg tablet, Acetaminophen 325 mg tablet X4, Haloperidol Lactate per 5 mg X2, Lorazepam per 2 mg X2, Senna 8.6 mg tablet, Enoxaparin 60 Mg/0.6 MI Syng X2, Diazepam 5 Mg Tablet X2, Propranolol 20 MG tablet X2.

ChatGPT: Administering this combination of drugs to a traumatic brain injury (TBI) patient could lead to severe sedation, respiratory depression, hypotension, and a high risk of complications due to the overlapping effects of these medications on the central nervous system (CNS) and cardiovascular system. Let’s break down the effects based on the primary drug classes involved:

Likely Results and Risks

1. Profound Sedation and CNS Depression
   • Phenobarbital, dexmedetomidine, trazodone, haloperidol, lorazepam, and diazepam are all CNS depressants. When combined, these drugs would likely cause excessive sedation, confusion, and, in severe cases, respiratory depression. For a TBI patient, this could obscure the assessment of neurological function, making it difficult to monitor for changes in consciousness or symptoms related to the brain injury.
2. Risk of Respiratory Depression
   • Lorazepam, diazepam, and phenobarbital all carry a high risk of respiratory depression. When combined with dexmedetomidine, this risk increases, especially if the patient’s breathing is not closely monitored. This is especially concerning for TBI patients, as stable oxygen levels are crucial for brain recovery.
3. Hypotension and Bradycardia
   • Dexmedetomidine and propranolol can lower heart rate and blood pressure. Combined, these drugs could lead to severe hypotension (low blood pressure) and bradycardia (slow heart rate), which could reduce blood flow to the brain. This would be dangerous for a TBI patient, as maintaining adequate blood pressure and brain perfusion is essential for recovery.
4. Confusion and Agitation
   • Haloperidol, trazodone, lorazepam, phenobarbital, and diazepam all affect mental clarity and can cause confusion, especially in patients with TBI who may already be vulnerable to cognitive issues. This combination increases the risk of delirium, agitation, or paradoxical reactions where a sedative leads to hyperactivity or disorientation.
5. Risk of Bleeding
   • Enoxaparin (a blood thinner) adds a significant bleeding risk. TBI patients are already at risk of brain bleeding, and additional blood thinners could worsen any intracranial hemorrhage or lead to other bleeding complications.
6. Additional Considerations
   • Acetaminophen might be included for pain or fever, which is standard, but it adds a mild sedative effect.
   • Senna is a laxative and generally safe; however, in a highly sedated patient, it could lead to dehydration or electrolyte imbalance if there’s significant bowel movement without proper hydration.

Summary of Likely Outcomes

The combined effects of these drugs could likely lead to over-sedation, respiratory suppression, low blood pressure, and altered mental status. For a TBI patient, these effects can interfere with the ability to accurately assess neurological status and could result in a serious risk of respiratory arrest, cardiovascular instability, and worsened neurological outcomes.

Monitoring and Caution

This combination of medications would require intensive monitoring in a controlled setting, such as an ICU, with frequent checks on respiratory and cardiovascular status, oxygen saturation, and neurological assessments. In most cases, clinicians would avoid such a combination due to its high risk and would aim for alternatives with fewer overlapping CNS depressant effects.

*******************

It seems like a highly effective way to run up a bill: take a patient with aphasia, struggling to communicate but not requiring surgery or IV medication, and administer a drug cocktail potent enough to knock out a horse. Then, declare him incapable of making his own choices, and threaten to involve law enforcement if his next-of-kin dares to take him home. Conveniently, vanish the surveillance footage. Then send a $46,000 bill for the two-week confinement. Quite the business model.

Defending this conduct is yet another example of Big Government, Big Pharma, and Big Business siphoning taxpayer dollars into their own bank accounts—illegally, but with complete impunity.
