A - Airway--edema, vomit/blood, loose teeth, tongue obstruction, vocalization. Look in mouth, clear all/suction, maintain c-spine, cricothyrotomy or intubate as needed. B - Breathing--chest rise (symmetrical), rate and depth, accessory muscles, breath sounds, skin color. Do supplemental o2, BVM, ...

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 fo...

Primary concern when a person cannot stop coughing/clearing their throat following house fire/smoke? - Airway/Intubate Lab evidence of cellular perfusion - Base Excess (Less than -6 is BAD) Multiple people are in the ER of different ages who all go to the same church. They all have the same symp...

Energy forces: Tension - forces stretch by pulling at opposite ends. Example: Tensile strength describes the tissues ability to resist pulling apart when stretched. Tendons, ligaments, and muscles can tear when they are overstretched (Achilles tendon) Energy Forces: Compression - Compression forc...

Expedite transfer to the closest trauma center - 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? a...
