So it sounds like patients' home health nurse came out to for a routine checkup on the patient, noticed that he just kept falling asleep during her assessment, found him to be fairly predacartic and activated 911.
00:57
Upon our arrival on scene, we found the patient sitting up around the couch.

In order to times 2 to 3, some baseline confusion, what it sounds like, but he is at his baseline now.

As far as glidal science go, we do have him in a third-degree heart block at a rate of about 33.
01:15
Our last blood pressure was 140 over 90.

01:23
just that pretty low heart rate.
01:24
He's not a third-degree heart block.
01:26
He's breathing for us right now at about 16 times a minute, 99% on rim air.
01:30
Well, we're going to get a blood sugar for you right now.
01:32
As far as medical history goes,
01:35
I got history of...
01:38
So it sounds like he does have history of kidney failure.
01:40
He did have a transplant, so he's no longer on dialysis.
01:44
Other than that, we'll have the rest of the history out expense for you guys on arrival.
01:47
