An 80-year-old patient has experienced a massive blood loss following an accident. His vital signs are: Blood pressure/BP 80/50 (normal ~ 120/80), heart rate/HR 120 (norm = 60-100), respiratory rate/RR 20 (norm = 12 to 20), temperature/T 98.6° (norm ~ 98.6°). The patient would also most likely have all of the following EXCEPT a. S&S of cool feet and hands from the body’s compensatory response to blood loss. b. S&S of feeling faint and weak from blood loss. c. a risk factor of shock. d. a more guarded (ie, “poorer”) prognosis because of his age.
