Paramedics respond to a 69-year-old man with serious breathing problems at home. His breathing became worse during the day and he had very rapid, shallow breaths with low oxygen levels. He has a medical history that includes lung problems and possible cancer, and his abdomen may be pressing on his diaphragm. Crews started breathing support and medications, and his condition briefly improved. During transport to Sharp Memorial Hospital, his blood pressure dropped and he went in and out of consciousness, so paramedics switched to assisted breathing with a bag mask and continued monitoring him.
