You gain the following benefits at all times. You must actively and obviously be using a stethoscope to gain the benefits of this Effect.

All Stabilizations you attempt are considered Proper Stabilizations.

You also gain the following effects:

  • Sterile: Sanitary conditions no longer matter during medical care. Your patients will never suffer an infection or toxic shock during treatment, even if you are performing surgery in a sewer. You may preserve harvested body parts indefinitely.
  • Unconventional Methods: When Stabilizing an Injury, you may opt to attempt a Makeshift Stabilization instead at Severity +2 Difficulty. If your Outcome is 4 or higher, the Injury is reduced by 2 Severity levels and its Battle Scar is set on the road to recovery. Outcomes less than 4 have the normal effect for Makeshift Stabilizations.

  • All stabilizations being proper stabilizations applies to stabilizations from other Effects such as Heal Wound.
