Sharp Memorial, medic 44.

Medic 44, you can go ahead.
00:06
If you can just let me know what your agency is.
00:10
Agency 726 with a run number of (number withheld).
00:20
I think it's special consideration for trauma.
00:24
You guys okay?
00:26
Actually, we are open.
00:27
Go ahead.
00:31
Yeah, arrived on scene at 44.
00:32
Arrived on scene with Engine 44 already on scene in Mount Laguna.
00:36
We have a (number withheld)-year-old male weighing approximately 170 pounds.
00:41
Chief complaint is going to be some facial pain after post-fall.
00:48
Patient said he had
00:50
a couple beers last night, six IPAs, a couple this morning, went out to walk out his dogs, tripped going out.
00:59
The front door to the porch and had a positive loss of consciousness with some repetitive questioning on scene.
01:11
Case number was (number withheld)
01:15
A and O times two minus the event and minus time.
01:21
Patient fell straight down from a standing position onto wood on the back porch, or sorry, the front porch.
01:31
He's got a laceration to his nose.
01:34
Teeth are intact.
01:36
Neighbor found him after she saw the dogs going around, and we think we had a positive loss of consciousness for about 5 min .
01:43
He was a little confused.
01:44
He kept on restating, you know, worrying about his dogs if his neighbors were taking care of his dogs, and also just restating some questions we had already answered for him.
01:54
He has improved since then.
01:57
He is at 15 right now.
02:01
No blood thinners, but with the drinking and the facial trauma, neck and back negative, chest and abdomen negative.
02:12
As far as treatment, we did put him in the C-collar.
02:15
Just as a lost consciousness and him drinking, we established a 20 gauge to the right forearm.
02:21
I gave a 500 cc bolus.
02:30
Patient said he's no longer, he's not really in any pain at this time.
02:34
No nausea, vomiting.
02:35
He was positive for a static on scene.
02:39
Current vitals are 124 over 84.
02:43
Normal sinus rhythm on the monitor, SMDA.
02:46
SpO2, 100% clear lungs.
02:50
I got a blood sugar of 150, 150.
02:55
Like I said, he's a lot more with it than he was on scene.
02:59
I think it was a full of blow.
03:01
It's maybe possible a little bit of dehydration.
03:06
Maybe the fluid maybe helps a little bit.
03:08
But he's answering all our questions.
03:09
He knows the city.
03:10
He's really just kind of minus the day now at this time and minus the event.
03:15
As far as history, like I said, no blood thinners.
03:18
Just takes hypertension medication.
03:20
Ten all, no known allergies.
03:23
And our ECG.
03:24
You would be probably about approximately 40 min .
03:27
Is there anything else they can grab you?
03:30
Hi, copy. Thanks so much.
03:31
We'll see you inside.
03:32
We can go ahead and make him a special conservation.
03:36
Copy that. We'll see you inside.
