Q.
Intramuscular, which means it’s an injection
into the intramusculars at 12:30 plus two 500
milligrams chloral hydrate capsules pierced and the
little gel squirted into her mouth. She says that she
swallowed them. Respiration rate she takes at 18 to
24. Extremities still cool but not cold. Needs -- the
person on staff, I guess, needs relief now. I will

eight hours.
 
A.
Uh-huh.

magnesium chloride and then
gave her prescription drugs, okay. Is that in the.
