It's awesome to see if we wanted to do an AMEO drip or if we wanted to just do fluids and transport to more plant.
00:57
Looks like we got about a 15 minute from where we're at.
01:01
We're still waiting on Sunstar.
01:02
All right, copy.
01:07
Any systems other than the feeling weak while he's walking out in the heat?
01:12
No, just short a breath.
01:14
His respiratory rate, when we first got to him, was in the 30s.
01:18
We talked them down and kind of coached him down in breathing.
01:21
He's probably still like 24, 26 at this time.

Okay, and just to confirm, you said, heart rate of 1.50?
01:34
Yes, sir. One five zero.

Proving, I'm okay with trialing the fluids first.
02:11
Obviously, if you feel it was unstable, you should have pads on, right on a cardiovert, and call me back if he seems to be deteriorating in any way.
02:21
Copy that. We'll continue fluids.
02:23
Get them loaded up their sunfire now and transport to Morin.
02:26
If any changes, I will give you a call back.
