A 68-year-old woman presents with light-headedness, nausea, and
chest discomfort. Your assessment finds her awake and responsive but
appearing ill, pale, and grossly diaphoretic. Her radial pulse is weak,
thready, and fast. You are unable to obtain a blood pressure. She has
no obvious dependent edema, and her neck veins are flat. Her lung
sounds are equal, with moderate rales present bilaterally. The cardiac
, monitor shows the rhythm seen here. The patient's pulse oximeter
shows a reading of 84% on room air. Which initial action do you take?
Give this one a try later!
Perform bag-mask ventilation Intubate the patient
Apply oxygen Check the pulse oximeter probe
Don't know?
