Chief 17, I'm on scene at private residence.

Find our patient sitting down on a chair in her living room.
00:36
She does have a caretaker on scene.
00:38
Caretaker states that patient had a brief moment of what she described as a loss of consciousness while sitting down and eating.
00:43
There was no choking that took place while she was eating, but it sounds like like mid-chewing.
00:47
She had a brief moment of approximately 45 seconds of a loss of consciousness.
00:51
The caretaker states that she tried to arouse the patient, was unsuccessful, called the patient's son, and he advised her to call 911.

No incontinence, no signs of seizure, no recent change in medications,
01:10
no illnesses or trauma leading up to this incident.

Caretaker does say that she's had a strong urine odor lately, but she's not showing any signs of.

Infection or sepsis right now.
01:23
Vital signs are all stable.
01:25
She got a heart rate of 74 , showing normal sinus on twelve lead.
01:27
Blood pressure 160 over 92 .
01:30
SpO2 97% on room air with clear lung sounds.

01:37
Patient's currently a no times one, which sounds like his baseline confirmed by care taker on scene.
01:43
A stroke scale for us is going to be inconclusive.
01:45
She does have right sided deficits from a prior stroke back in.
01:48
Two thousand and eleven.
01:50
But again, caretaker says she's acting appropriately now at her baseline.
01:54
She is able to move the left side of her body with no resistance or struggle.
01:59
So we're still feeling the inconclusive pressures with those right side deficits.
