Your patient is a conscious and alert 22-year-old female who was stung by a hornet. She states that she has "allergies to bee stings" and has been told that she could die if stung. Your physical examination reveals a red, edematous area 1 cm in diameter where she was stung on the left forearm. Her skin is warm and dry, and her lung sounds are clear and equal bilaterally. HR = 112 and regular, BP = 122/82, RR = 12 and regular, SaO2 = 98%. The most appropriate treatment for this patient would include:
A) 100% oxygen via nonrebreather mask 15 lpm, cardiac monitor, IV of NS KVO, epinephrine 1:1000 0.3 mg SQ, diphenhydramine 25 mg IV, transport.
B) BLS transport to the nearest facility.
C) 100% oxygen via nonrebreather mask, cardiac monitor, IV of NS KVO, transport.
D) 100% oxygen via nonrebreather mask 15 lpm, cardiac monitor, IV of NS 1-2L, epinephrine 1:1000 0.3 mg SQ, diphenhydramine 25 mg IV, transport.
