It was a hot, dry, and smoggy day in Riverside, California, where the Poly Bears were competing against the M.L. King Sharks. Ri
chard, the star runner for the Bears, was ahead of the pack at the 2½-mile mark when his breathing became labored. Richard is an asthmatic and had left his inhaler at home, in a rush to make it to school that day. Even though his breathing became labored, he was determined to keep the pace up and win the event. The Poly Bears had set up emergency stations at each ½-mile mark to look for any type of medical condition. The medical station at mile 2½ could see Richard was having trouble.
What should the person at that medical station do?
1.Make Richard sit down with arms elevated and supported by a pillow on a table. 2.If Poly was the home team, we could´ve prepared for this situation by bringing an inhaler in case of an emergency. 3.Encourage Richard to use the inhaler. The decisions should be made by the physician, team physician, and the parents or guardian in case of minors.
