  a. Our patient was admitted 2 days ago with heart failure and has been receiving furosemide (Lasix) for diuresis, but his urine output has been low.
  b. I think that our patient needs to be evaluated immediately and may need intubation and mechanical ventilation.
  c. This is the nurse on the surgical unit. I am calling about our patient in room 3. After assessing him, I am very concerned about his shortness of breath.
  d. Today, our patient has crackles audible throughout the posterior chest and his O2 saturation is 89. His condition is very unstable.
