She has no obvious dependent edema, and her neck veins are flat. And they have to function as one cohesive unit, which requires a focus on communication within the team dynamic. Improving patient outcomes by identifying and treating early clinical deterioration Many hospitals have implemented the use of medical emergency teams or rapid response teams. The Adult Tachycardia With a Pulse Algorithm outlines the steps for assessment and management of a patient presenting with symptomatic tachycardia with pulses. During a resuscitation attempt, the team leader asks the EMT to ventilate the patient at a rate of 20 breaths/min, and the EMT replies, "Actually, sir, the correct ventilation rate is 10 breaths/min." This is an example of: constructive intervention. The goal for emergency department doortoballoon inflation time is 90 minutes.
