Case Summary
Mr. Best is a 59 year old who called EMS after having multiple episodes of frank hematemesis. He is hypotensive but conscious with EMS, but en route to the ED his LOC declines. Shortly after arrival in the resus room, he loses his pulse. Learners must manage his PEA arrest. After Epi is given twice, they are again able to palpate a pulse. The learners must then manage his hypotension in the context of blood loss and presumed UGIB.
