A Hypotensive, Oliguric Patient

  • A 55 yr old woman is 5 hours post op elective cholecystectomy

  • She is feeling dizzy, BP 85/55 and only passed 20ml urine in the past 2 hours.

  • I'm not that happy with how things are going - can you come and have a look at her?

 

What do you do while you've still got the nurse on the phone?
