00:21
Grossmont, 1794, welcome to come to you with a 35 real female.
00:24
She pointed a headache.
00:27
Sounds like on Sunday the patient had a massage.
00:31
About 12 hours afterwards, she started to develop a severe headache.
00:35
Sounds like vertigo, like symptoms,
00:38
along with maybe some facial numbness as well.
00:43
I don't think it's kind of maybe gone on and off for the last couple of days.
00:47
So I don't think yesterday she went into the emergency room at your facility around five of a climb.
00:53
I don't think she was diagnosed with having some type of a possible, like a cervical arterial
01:05
dissection of some kind.
01:07
They put her on some blood thinners as well.
01:09
They said she's susceptible of having strokes, things like that.
01:15
So then on this morning as well, it sounds like she had a sudden onset again of some neck tightness along with some blurred vision,
01:25
a headache,
01:26
and some just generalized numbness to her face.
01:33
Sounds like arm drift is negative, facial drip is negative.
01:36
She has speeches and has zero abnormalities of any kind.
01:39
She can walk around without any issues as well.
01:44
Right now she is breathing full and effective.
01:46
She's alert and or reinforced.
01:47
I have spontaneous tracking, good movement in all extremities.
01:50
We do have a blood pressure of 125 over 82.
01:54
Pulse was 80.
01:56
She's respirations are 18 and fats are 100% of room air.
02:02
With that,
02:04
looking to come to your facility was probably about a 10-minute ETA.
02:07
Let me know how you copy.
02:10
Did you get blood sugar? Also, she negative the stroke scale.
02:15
Stroke skill is negative, what she's experienced right now is some neck tightness, along with a headache,
02:21
some vision issues, it sounds like just more like a blurred vision,
02:26
but no balance issues of any kind, and some kind of generalized numbness to her face.
02:31
It doesn't seem to be particularly on one side or another, anything like that.
02:37
Okay, I copy that, and then what did you hear about sugar?
02:42
Sorry, we did get a blood sugar and the engine then send it over to me so I'll see if I can get it back.
02:49
If I can, I'll get her a new one and if it comes back abnormal, I'll re-contact you.
