For vital signs in which the b/p is 112/170, P is 54, Resp. is 12, and patient is semi-responsive, the treatment to most likely benefit the patient would be to request for advanced life support (ALS) during the transport of the patient to the emergency department.
Advanced life support will allow for the intubation of the patient to administer certain medications to improve the patient's condition or prevent him/her from having another cardiac arrest. The patient should not be given nitro and should not be transported in prone position.
