23 on 3. Hey, sir, did I see in the notes that you were coming with us or 74? It was I. Perfect. We are here with a female patient. Sounds like blood in the emesis started last night. As far as vital signs, we're actually kind of bradycardics sitting between like 50 and 60. We've got a blood pressure of 80 by palp and a capnography of 10. with a saturation of about 90. She's a little pale and does have some busyness while standing. Copy that. Why do you think she's bradycardic? Is she on any beta blockers? She hits the propranolol. She's been taking it as prescribed, but that's the only thing that we could think of for the bradyacardia sinus brady. Copy, and where's your destination? Do you feel like you can safely move her and transport her? Or if you start to move her, do you think she'll get worse? Our destination is going to be St. Francis. She looks well enough. We're going to use a stair to get her downstairs and out to the ambulance. Copy that. I'm going to continue your way for the next five or ten minutes. Once you guys get her loaded, hopefully you come back up on three and just let me know that nothing's changed. (name withheld) is on all the copies. Yeah, and I'm borderline on a blood admin anyways. But if you guys get your lines, that'd be great. If you can get her to the hospital without, then they probably will do it there. I'm just a little ways out still.
