The fact that his temp was that low and he had hypotension not responsive to fluid therapy shows that he Was very septic. If you carried levophed it would be good to start it at low dose but fluids and early anti-biotics are the key in terms of the emergency setting. As for the ECG I'm sure the PH and potassium was messing with it so I try not to get tunnel visioned on that. Great assessment with the etco2 by the way
