Hello everyone I put this in the general nursing because I wanted all types of specialities to give an input. Please advise if I should've placed it somewhere else.
Scenario: PT ESRD on dialysis whose BP was running 62/32 done with a manual and bp machine confirmed and verified but pt was stable other than general weakness. Pt was supine so I'm sure if the pt was to ambulate BP would've plummeted and possibly bottom out. No history of cardiac issues that we know of.
Dialysis was done earlier that day. Pt had an allergic reaction to a med intermediate in severity (itching, flushing) 2 hours prior and bp was being monitored. Pt states that they have been running a low BP 80/50 and even lower for some weeks
Anyone ever had a patient like this who wasn't unstable and was AAOx3?
Feel free to ask questions if I didn't paint the picture adequately. Thank you.
