Additional[1]

Evaluation

  • Labs
    • Glucose, CBC, chem, UA, CSF, LFT, utox, VBG, BAL, thyroid, Calcium (ionized)
  • ECG
  • Neuroimaging
  • XR
  • Urine

Management

  • Immobilize cervical spine for suspected trauma
  • Fluid resuscitation 20 mL/kg x3 as needed; start pressors thereafter
  • Antibiotics for sepsis or meningitis (consider viral it patient is toxic)
  • Naloxone for opiate or clonidine overdose (0.01-0.1mg/kg IV q2 min)
  • Glucose for hypoglycemia (2 mL/kg of 25% dextrose)
  • Avoid sodium bicarbonate for metabolic acidosis unless pH <7.0
  • Control seizures
  • Prevent hypothermia, treat hyperthermia
