LF, a 34 year old white male, presented to the emergency room complaining of acute and severe shortnessof breath and intense chest tightness. LF’s speech was choppy and breathing was very rapid and erratic,punctuated by noticeable wheezing. LF’s medical records included the results of pulmonary functiontesting he had undergone six months beforeHis medical records also indicated prior admission for respiratory symptoms and a history of poorly-controlled asthma.LF received high-dose bronchodilator medication through use of a valved holding chamber. This wasfollowed by intravenous glucocorticoids and nebulized bronchodilators every two hours for a twelve-hourperiod, followed by nebulized bronchodilators every four hours for a forty-eight hour period.After discharge from the hospital, LF was provided a take-home flow meter to monitor his lung function.Table 4 shows LF’s PEFR results during a 30-day period.Table 4.

Vitals Signs The patient is on non- rebreather mask and the vital parameters are: Temperature- 37.7 degree centigrade Heart rate - 128 beats/ minute Respiratory rate - 25 breaths/ minute Blood pressure - 100/60 mmHg And saturation - 92% The initial survey reveals a patent airway with no evidence of current obstruction. Breathing is tachypneic and regular, with accessory muscle use indicating increased effort. Circulation characterized by tachycardia and mild hypotension. There are 1+ distal pulses bilaterally, and the skin is warm and dry. At the ER, an ECG reveals sinus tachycardia of 129, which resolves without any prior medical management. Sinus at 98 beats per minute. Identify the life-threatening injuries of the patient using the ABC prioritization. Why?
