On 3/14/01, at 16:30, the pt experienced a "low-grade temperature" and received acetaminophen (Tylenol). On 3/14/01 at 19:30, the pt developed a temperature of 103.5F and experienced a seizure X 1 minute. The pt was transported to the ER via ambulance. The pt was treated with electrolytes (unspecified) (Pedialyte), acetaminophen suppository (Tylenol) and ceftriaxone sodium (Rocephin).
