ATLS 10TH EDITION NEWEST UPDATED FINAL EXAM WITH
DETAILED ACTUAL QUESTIONS AND CORRECT 100% VERIFIED
ANSWERS RATED A+ GRADE
Assessed first in trauma patient
Airway
(*)Degree of burn that is characterized by bone involvement
Fourth
Complications of head trauma
Intracerebral hematoma
Extradural hematoma
Brain abscess
Most common cause of laryngotracheal stenosis
Trauma
Intervention that can help prevent development of acute renal failure
Infusion of normal saline
,A 26-year-old male is resuscitated with blood transfusion after a motor vehicle collision that was
complicated by a fractured pelvis. A few hours later, the patient becomes febrile, hypotensive with a
normal CVP, and oliguric. Upon examination, the patient is found to be bleeding from the NG tube and
IV sites. Which of the following is the most likely diagnosis?
A. Hemorrhagic shock
B. Acute adrenal insufficiency
C. Fat embolism syndrome
D. Transfusion reaction
D. Transfusion reaction
Skin antiseptic
-Ethanol 70% is an effective skin antiseptic
-Acetic acid can be used to treat Gram- skin infections
-Salicylic acid is used to treat certain skin yeast infections
Class IV hemorrhage indicates what % blood loss
55%
How does shivering affect body temperature
Increases body temperature
,Class III hemorrhage indicates what % of blood loss
35%
Management of a stable patient with kidney contusion
Observation
Associated with hypovolemic shock
-Inadequate tissue perfusion with resultant tissue hypoxia
-Blood shunting to vital organs
-Decreased circulating blood volume and decreased venous return
-Low cardiac output
-Loss of less than 20% of the blood volume is usually without symptom except for mild tachycardia
-Patients become orthostatic with losses between 20 and 40%
-Shock is evidenced by tachycardia, hypotension, oliguria, flat neck veins
The most effective method of monitoring the success of resuscitation during CPR?
Reactivity of pupils to light
Used to ensure correct placement of endotracheal tube
-Ultrasound
-Bilateral breath sounds
, -Sustained end-tidal CO2
Total body surface area involved in a burn in an adult to the anterior chest and abdomen
18%
What is often caused by carotid massage?
Bradycardia
Step in a patient diagnosed with tension pneumothorax
1. Needle decompression/ thoracotomy
2. Chest tube
True statements regarding diaphragmatic injuries
-Blunt diaphragmatic injuries are usually associated with skeletal trauma
-Penetrating diaphragmatic injuries may be missed
-Repair of traumatic diaphragmatic injuries usually does not require prosthetic material
First priority in the treatment of an unconscious patient
Checking the pulse
