jHer jfamily jstates jthat jshe jhas jbeen jcompliant jwith jthese jmedications. jOn
jphysical jexamination, jvital jsigns jare: jheart jrate, j118 jbeats/min; jblood jpressure,
j96/53 jmm jHg; jrespiratory jrate, j14 jbreaths/min; jand joxygen jsaturation, j98% jon
jroom jair. jOther jfindings jincluded jdry jmucous jmembranes, jpoor jskin jturgor,
jand jthe jabsence jof jjugular jvenous jdistention. jPulmonary jexamination jis jclear
jon jauscultation. jShe jopens jher jeyes jto jvoice, jbut jmumbles jincomprehensible
jsounds jand jhas jgeneralized jweakness. jShe jhas ja j2-minute jtonic-clonic jseizure
jin jthe jemergency jdepartment, jwhich jresolves jwithout jintervention. jPertinent
jlaboratory jresults jare: jsodium, j110 jmEq/L; jpotassium, j4.5 jmEq/L; jchloride, j80
jmEq/L; jbicarbonate, j26 jmEq/L; jBUN, j57 jmg/dL, jcreatinine, j1.2 jmg/dL;
B. jHypertonic j(3%) jsaline, j100 jmL jfor jrapid jearly jcorrection, jwith jgoal jserum
jsodium jof j118 jmEq/L jin j24 jhours
A j72-year-old jwoman jwith ja jhistory jof jhypertension, jtype j2 jdiabetes jmellitus,
jand jsmoking jdevelops jsudden-onset jsevere jchest jpain jassociated jwith
jdifficulty jbreathing jand jdiaphoresis. jHer jvital jsigns jon jarrival jin jthe jemergency
jdepartment jare: jblood jpressure, j165/92 jmm jHg; jheart jrate, j101 jbeats/min;
jrespiratory jrate, j29 jbreaths/min; jand joxygen jsaturation jas jmeasured jby jpulse
joximetry, j96% jon jroom jair. jWhich jof jthe jfollowing jECG jfindings jis jthe jmost
jsignificant jindicator jfor jimmediate jreperfusion jin jthis jpatient?
A. jST jsegment jdepression
B. jST jsegment jelevation
