The trauma nurse knows that placing a bariatric patient in a "ramped position" provides better visualization during the insertion of which device? endotracheal tube Tearing of the bridging veins is most frequently associated with which brain injury? subdural hematoma A patient is found lying o...

EMS brings a patient who fell while riding his bicycle. Using the American College of Surgeons screening guidelines, which assessment finding would prompt the nurse to prepare the patient for radiologic spine clearance? Alert with no neurological deficits The trauma nurse knows that placing a bar...

1.What is the effect of hypothermia on the oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve Hemoglobin does not readily release oxygen for use by the tissues A shift to the left occurs in an environment of low metabolic demand (hypothermia, hypocapnia, alkalosis), increasing hemoglobin's affinity for oxygen. E...

What is the best measure of the adequacy of cellular perfusion and helps predict the outcome of resuscitation? Base deficit used in conjunction with serum lactate Will hypocapnia cause vasoconstriction or vasodilation, especially in the cerebral vasculature? Vasoconstriction What results from ti...

Initial Assessment 1. Preparation and Triage 2. Primary Survery (ABCDE) with resuscitation adjuncts (F,G) 3. Reevaluation (consideration of transfer) 4. Secondary Survey (HI) with reevaluation adjuncts 5. Reevaluation and post resuscitation care 6. Definitive care of transfer to an appropriate ...

What is kinematics? A branch of mechanics (energy transfer) that refers to motion and does not consider the concepts of force and mass of the object or body. What is Newton's First Law? A body at rest will remain at rest. A body in motion will remain in motion until acted on by an outside force....

When might a patient need an ETT placed? Apnea, GCS 8 or less, severe maxillofacial injuries, evidence of inhalation injuries, altered LOC/inability to protect airway What is part of the initial team prep for a pregnant patient? Call the OB team, get a fetal heart monitor What are the earliest s...

The major cause of preventable death after injury Uncontrolled hemorrhage The best measure of the adequacy of cellular perfusion and helps to predict the outcome of resuscitation Base deficit Examples of primary blast injuries Blast lung, ruptured tympanic membrane, TBI, abdominal hemorrhage Ex...

What are the greatest risks for transport? Loss of airway patency, displaced obstructive tubes lines or catheters, dislodge splinting devices, need to replace or reinforce dressings, deterioration in patient status change in vital signs or level of consciousness, injury to the patient and/or team ...

Why is a measure of serum lactate obtained in the initial assessment of the trauma patient? Answer: c a) to measure oxygenation and ventilation b) to quantify the base deficit for the adequacy of cellular perfusion c) *to gauge end-organ perfusion and tissue hypoxia ** d) to determine the underl...

A 56 y/o M involved in a MVC is brought to the ED. He complains of neck pain, SOB, and diffuse abdominal pain. His GCS is 15, VS: BP 98/71, HR 125, RR 26, SpO2 94% on high-flow O2 via NRB mask. Which is the priority intervention for this patient? Expedite transfer to the closest trauma center Wh...
