I'm in a routing facility with the knee table about five minutes.
00:21
I have a 78-year-old female, she fell earlier today and has right hip pain.
00:28
Denies any loss of consciousness, no blood thinners.
00:31
There is some external rotation, but I put her on my monitor and her heart rate was 47.
00:38
It's just sinus bradycardia rhythm.
00:43
I don't see a block or anything of that nature, but I did just give her 0.5 milligrams of atropine.
00:51
I'm not getting a good SPO2 saturation.
00:55
She does have nails on, but she's complaining of a little bit of shortness of breath, and blood pressure was 112 over 51 before the administration of atropine.
01:03
And I'm also giving her a normal saline right now, and that's all being done to a 20-gauge IV in the left AC.
01:10
She is alert and oriented 4-5 and 6, but she does seem kind of slower to respond, a little pale,
01:17
and just generally...
01:18
lethargic.
01:19
She's on two liters of O2 right now.
01:21
Any questions?

Right now, 3, 5, 6.
01:38
She's alert for her.
01:39
Ma'am.
01:42
Yeah,
01:43
she's very arousable when there's alert.
01:45
Like I said, I did give her atropine.
01:48
She was at 47, I believe it did bring up her pulse a little bit.
01:52
I'm not getting a good reading.
