Transcript:
Coming in with a 94-year-old male for a nursing home. Sounds like this evening he had his dinner and immediately started vomiting it up. High risk that he may have aspirated, sitting at 91% on 2 liters right now. He was sitting right around 89 to 90 on Romare, which he does not typically need at-home oxygen. 181 over 86 for blood pressure, 81 for a heart rate. It's warm to the touch but not running on temp yet at this time. Again, we're about six out. Any questions?
