73-year-old female patient. We were called to her residence today, which is the rose. A patient began feeling like her heart was racing as well as having some chest pain and a little short of breath. I don't know, her heart rates about 145, 150. She said, sorry, a couple hours ago, kind of cries you got worse. She was recently released from (name withheld) facility. She does have a history of tachycardia. Other bottles I have for you, B.A. Blood pressure is 134 over 105. We got respers, about 20. We got a heart rate again, about 152. We did transmit at 12 lead to (name withheld) facility. Just had 97% on room there. We have a 20-gauge heavy established in the left hand. We're going to have a tier facility with lights. We'll probably be there in about two minutes. Do you request anything further? We did give four baby aspirin and one spray in nitro with no relief.
