You are on the scene of a 5-year-old patient who is in respiratory distress. The mother states that the patient has been making a "seal bark"-sounding cough for the past 24 hours. The child is very scared. The patient has stable vital signs. He is leaning forward in the tripod position and is drooling profusely. After performing your primary assessment, what is your BEST treatment option?
A) Provide oxygen by nasal cannula.
B) Use a tongue depressor to examine the patient's mouth to determine whether the patient has strep throat or croup.
C) Calm the child as much as possible and provide oxygen by blow-by.
D) Provide high-concentration oxygen and have the parent hold it to the patient's face.
