breathe. Allergic to antibiotic class, cephalosporins.
2. Document your initial focused respiratory assessment of Kenneth Bronson.

During/after anaphylactic reaction, VS: RR 36/min airway sounds obstructed, increased
respiratory effort, SpO2 92% non-rebreather mask 10 L/min, BP 140/80 mm Hg, HR
144/min, urticarial rashes on chest

0:08 You washed your hands. To maintain patient safety, it is
important to wash your hands as soon as you enter the
room.
0:10 Patient status - ECG: Sinus rhythm. Heart rate: 96.
Pulse: Present. Blood pressure: 138/82 mm Hg.
Respiration: 19. Conscious state: Appropriate. SpO2:
95%. Temp: 103 F (39.2 C)
0:32 You identified the patient. To maintain patient safety, it is
important that you quickly identify the patient.
0:40 You asked if the patient was allergic to anything. He
replied: 'No, I am not allergic to anything.'
0:55 You sat the patient up. It is correct to do so.
0:59 You looked for normal breathing. He is breathing at 18
breaths per minute. The chest is moving normally on both
sides.
1:10 Patient status - ECG: Sinus rhythm. Heart rate: 96.
Pulse: Present. Blood pressure: 137/81 mm Hg.
Respiration: 18. Conscious state: Appropriate. SpO2:
95%. Temp: 103 F (39.2 C)
1:29 You attached the pulse oximeter. It is a good idea to
monitor the saturation and pulse here. This will allow you
to reassess the patient continuously.
1:44 You checked the radial pulse. The pulse is strong, 95 per
minute and regular. It is correct to assess the patient's
vital signs.
2:10 Patient status - ECG: Sinus rhythm. Heart rate: 96.
Pulse: Present. Blood pressure: 136/81 mm Hg.
Respiration: 17. Conscious state: Appropriate. SpO2:
95%. Temp: 103 F (39.2 C)
2:11 You measured the blood pressure at 136/80 mm Hg. It is
appropriate to monitor the patient by measuring the blood
