Which transport-related risks are the biggest? - ANSWER loss of airwaypatency, dislodged splinting devices, displaced obstructive tubes, lines, or
catheters, need to strengthen or replace dressings, decline in the patient's
condition, altered vital signs, altered state of consciousness, and/or injuries to
the patient or other team members
Which of these two forces—size or force—is greater, according to Newton's
law? - ANSWER: Neither. There is an equal and opposite ANSWER to every
force.
What is the connection between kinetic energy and mass and velocity? -
ANSWER Since kinetic energy is equal to 1/2 mass times square velocity, a
twofold increase in mass results in a twofold increase in net energy;
nevertheless, a twofold increase in velocity results in a fourfold increase in
energy.
Tension: what is it? Respond to the stretching tension by tugging at the
opposing ends.
How does compression work? - ANSWER Squeezing together to crush
Bending: what is it? - ANSWER loading along a plane. When someone bends,
the side they are leaning toward with intention to the opposing side is
compressed.
Shearing: what is it? - ANSWER Damage caused by bending or ripping when
separate portions of the faucet are simultaneously forced in opposite directions.
Torsion: What is it? - ANSWER Ends are twisted in opposite directions by
torsion forces.
Combined loading: what is it? - ANSWER any mix of shear, torsion,
compression, and/or tension.
Which four categories of trauma-related injuries exist? - ANSWER Sharp,
piercing, burning, or explosion.
, What are the causative elements of blunt trauma injuries? - ANSWER the
patient's body's point of impact, the kind of surface struck, the tissues' resistance
(bone versus soft tissue, air-filled versus solid organs), and the force's direction.
Which seven route injury patterns are associated with motor vehicle accidents? -
ANSWER Roll over, expel, lateral, rotational, up and over, and down and
under.
Tell the three impacts of the motor vehicle impact sequence apart. - ANSWER
When the car strikes another object, there is an initial impact. Following the
first hit, there is a second impact when the occupant keeps going in the same
direction until they run into the interior of the car or run into resistance. When
internal structures within the bodily cavity contact, the third impact takes place.
Which three elements together exacerbate the harm that penetrating traumas
cause? - ANSWER the proximity to the object, the impact location, and the
impact velocity and speed.
What are the main reasons why blast traumas occur? - ANSWER the immediate
explosion consequences. Long-term effects include worldwide rupture,
moderate traumatic brain injury, stomach bleeding and perforation, tympanic
membrane rupture and middle ear damage.
Why do blast traumas have subsequent effects? - ANSWER projectiles driven
by the blast. Penetrating, blunt, or I penetration injuries are among the injuries.
What triggers blast traumas' tertiary effects? - ANSWER outcomes of people
being flung by the blast wind. Broken bones, traumatic amputations, and blunt
or piercing traumas are among the injuries that result from being hurled against
a hard surface and cause holes or partial body translocations.
Why do blast traumas have quarternary effects? - ANSWER All infections,
injuries, or illnesses associated to explosions that are not caused by the first
three mechanisms. Internal and external burns, crush injuries, closed and open
