Question

The patient seems a bit tachypneic, but is moving air through his lungs with no abnormal sounds. You see no signs of bleeding, but notice that his skin is hot and dry, and he remains flushed. His respiratory rate is 28 breaths/min, with a pulse rate of 124 beat/min that seems to be a bit thready. His blood pressure is 94/60 mm Hg, and his temperature is 104ºF. You try to obtain some history from your patient. He is able to tell you his first name is Robert, and he thinks he is 45 year old, but he is not able to give you any other information. He suddenly leans forward and vomits. Afterwards, he seems even more confused. What should you do now?
