69-year-old male who had a mechanical fall down some stairs onto outstretched arms, it looks like.
00:10
He remembers the entire event.
00:11
He was, this was witnessed,
00:14
did not lose consciousness.
00:15
It looks like he hit his...
00:18
head on either the floor or maybe a piece of furniture in the entryway.
00:25
That's where his,
00:27
I guess, roommate found him.
00:30
He missed ETOH, ETOH on breath.
00:33
No blood thinners.
00:35
He has no other injuries that he's complaining of, history of hypertension only.
00:42
103 over 66,
00:44
which is kind of low for him, he says, 81 sinus rhythm and octoberose D changes 96% room error.
00:50
Respiratory rate 18.
00:52
He's in C-spine, just as precaution,
00:56
and because of the ETOH, and I'm going to get him a fluid bolus.
00:58
Other than that,
01:00
I think Pomerado is sufficient for evaluation.
01:06
He said the mechanism was he slipped down the wood stairs, like I can see how that's pretty slippery,
01:12
falling down onto his outstretched hands on the tile floor at the bottom.
01:18
What else can I get for you?
01:21
Did he have any obvious trauma? He's got like a, I'm going to say, an avulsion that's very top of his head with bleeding controls.
01:32
It's not really even a hematoma, it's more of an abrasion, and that's maybe another little abrasion on his hand.
01:38
But other than that, no other obvious trauma, and he's not complaining of anything.
01:44
All right, so you guys want to go to Pomerado and Poway? Just want to confirm that? Yes, ma'am.
01:50
Okay. Well, patients ill or norience in time four, I guess you can go over to there.
01:54
I'd rather go to a trauma center just for a special consideration due to ETOH and mechanism.
