She currently takes prednisone 10 mg QD, inhaled mometasone furoate and formoterol fumarate dihydrate (Dulera), motelukast 10 mg QD, and nebulized albuterol every 4 hours PRN. She has used 6 doses of albuterol in the past 24 hours. On exam she is using accessory muscles and is conversationally dyspneic. Her RR is 32 and O2 sat is 89% on RA. Breath sounds are decreased bilaterally with a few end-expiratory wheezes. ABG is as follows: 7.48/30/59. Supplemental O2, continuous nebulized albuterol, and IV magnesium is given. One hour after treatment initiation the patient's exam findings and symptoms are unchanged. Repeat ABG shows the following: 7.39/40/95.

A 19-yeаr-оld mаle with аcute lymphоblastic leukemia is fоund to be lethargic and complains of nausea and muscle cramps after receiving cytotoxic therapy.
