A 33-year-old female presents with acute respiratory distress. She is conscious but anxious, and tells you that she has a history of asthma. She took two puffs of her albuterol inhaler prior to your arrival, but states that it did not help. Her oxygen saturation reads 89% and you hear diffuse wheezing while auscultating her lungs. You should:

B) assist her with a third albuterol treatment, contact medical control for further advice, give her high-flow oxygen, and transport her to the hospital. C) ventilate her with a bag-valve-mask device until her oxygen saturation is at least 94% and rapidly transport her to the closest appropriate medical facility.
