Assisting in Pulmonary and Cardiology Medicine and Performing EKGs: Professionalism Assignment

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Sooo I'm literally in high school but I wanna be a doctor so I'm gonna see if I can answer this with some course of knowledge. So I'm assuming that since hes a male medical assistant, and the girl is 18, he is allowed to preform an EKG? I also know that if he has proper training he can preform an EKG. It seems kinda weird that no other staff attendees were in the exam room, and how she was instructed to remove her clothing and was obviously not comfortable. He should have asked the girl if she wanted someone else in the room with her, such as a female medical assistant or even just another female. I think he should have also given her something to drape over herself, once the pads were in place. Maybe since she didn't have a drape over her she became cold, and anxious. That's all I can really answer:)
