Hey, Cap, so here's what we got. We have a 12-year-old that is currently in an isolation box at the school.
01:08
Extremely combative behavior, threatening the staff and heard all the people here at the school of the staff.
01:17
He's currently in the box just screaming and his dad is here, no de-escalation has been able to take place.
01:24
And dad said that there's a pretty good chance that we're going to have to sedate him. So we just have you started just to make sure that if we go that route that you can be involved.
01:38
Do they know what he weighs?
01:45
He weighs probably about 80 pounds. I've got hands heavy up and ready to go.
01:52
I'd say right now we are probably a RAS plus four.
02:02
Chair thoughts.
02:04
We're set or do we need to go to ketamine?
02:08
We really haven't got that far because you're still in the box. We're just waiting for you an additional LPD for assistance, but it's probably going to be more appropriate for ketamine, I would be thinking.
02:24
We'll figure out a couple doses for both medications and we'll kind of caucus when I get there.
02:34
Clear. We'll see you in a few.
02:38
And obviously any other medical history and allergies would be good.
02:47
Yep, got it. Thank you.
