We got called out to the scene here.
00:01
It sounds like sheriffs were involved for looking for a patient that was being erratic.
00:06
They did eventually find him.
00:07
Sounds like some shots, gunshots were shot at him.
00:11
However, he was never hit by any bullet at this time.
00:15
But they did call us out for an evaluation.
00:16
We found the patient sitting upright,
00:18
really 30 times a minute with that heart rate.
00:23
Sounds like for the patient, he did take approximately 130 pills of Serraquil,
00:29
which is prescribed to for some psych issues.
00:34
He's pretty combative with us on scene, so we did give him 5 milligrams that first said, I am,
00:40
which seems like he is calming down at this point.
00:42
But he's in poor restraints with Sarah's riding in.
00:46
I know there are outward signs of trauma on the patient.
00:49
His answer our questions appropriately is ANO times 4, but like I said, just pretty combative initially.
00:56
That's probably gave the first set.
00:59
We're looking for IV access.
01:01
We're going to start a fluid bullet bullet.
01:02
Right now on the monitor is showing SVT, however, he is pretty amped up.
01:07
We'll see if that pool bullet can bring that heart rate down.
01:10
But other vital signs look pretty stable here.
01:12
Other than that,
01:14
short E.T. to you guys, about 15 minutes.
01:16
Just anything else I can clarify at this time.
01:19
All righty, do we have an approximate age for the gentleman?
01:24
I'm sorry about that.
01:25
He's probably 25 to 30-year-old male.
01:29
All righty, yeah,
01:30
I will go ahead and let everybody know, so bring them right in.
01:34
We'll see you guys inside.
01:35
If anything changes and you are able to administer anything, just let me.
01:42
Chris Long for Medic 3 update.
01:45
Medic 3 update, you can go ahead at 1120.
01:49
Hey, Grossmont from Medic 3.
01:51
We're going to upload the 12-lead to you guys.
01:54
We're at SVT.
01:55
It's been about 7 minutes since we gave the Burset.
01:58
Hard rate's come down from 190 to about 160 right now.
02:01
So we do have an IV established.
02:03
We're just going to work on the fluid bullets for now.
02:05
As far as his meditation,
02:07
he is now unconscious.
02:09
He's alert to like painful stimuli.
02:12
And so apart from that, we're contacting poison control right now for further direction as far as charcoal.
02:22
All righty, if he's unconscious then only able to respond to pain, even if Poison Control alerts you to oral contrast might be better to hold off.
02:37
Yeah, yeah, of course.
02:39
We'll let you know what they say.
02:41
Cool, thanks.
