MRCP2-0480

You are urgently called to the Emergency Department to assist with a critical patient. A 60-year-old male has been admitted with severe shortness of breath and is in a critical condition. The chest X-ray indicates heart failure as the likely diagnosis.

The medical team has already administered 80 mg of furosemide intravenously, and the patient is currently receiving an intravenous nitroglycerin infusion. The patient’s blood pressure is 100/70 mmHg.

Despite these interventions, the patient’s oxygen saturation levels remain low at 88% even with high flow oxygen via a non-rebreather mask. What should be the next course of action to manage this patient’s condition?
