In the next room you'll find wideshot shells, flash grenades, flares, and a large medipack on pedestals. You can take the shotgun ammo and grenades without anything happening, but once you take the flares or medipack, a swarm of nasty beetles emerges, and you'll need to move quickly.

I recommend collecting the shells and grenades and saving the game before you pick up the flares. Then you'll have less to redo if things go badly. Grab them...

Grab the medipack.

Immediately backflip and roll or, better yet, backflip and roll in the air to land facing the exit.

The beetles continue to follow, so run/sprint to the end of the passageway and climb up directly ahead. Run/sprint to the end of the passageway...
