Your patient is a 34-year-old female found unresponsive in a bathtub of cold water in a house in a part of town known for drug trafficking. She is unresponsive to all stimuli, is breathing shallowly at 4 times per minute, has a barely palpable radial pulse of 60, and her skin is very cool and mottled. Upon checking her pupils, you note that they are constricted and nonreactive to light. Of course you will remove her from the bathtub. After that, what should you?
A) Intubate, start an IV, administer 25 gm of 50% dextrose, transport.
B) Intubate, start an IV, administer 2 mg of naloxone and 25 gm of 50% dextrose, transport.
