ATLS 10th Edition Practice Test 2026 | Verified Answers |
Exam Prep
1. When managing a patient with an electrical injury that presents with
hematochromagen urine, you should maintain a urine output of
1-2 mL/kg/hr
A minimum 100 mL/hr
30-50 mL/hr
50-100 mL/hr
2. In a scenario where a patient has sustained multiple injuries from a
motorcycle accident, how would the MIST acronym guide your initial
assessment?
It would direct me to prioritize imaging studies over patient history.
It would remind me to perform a secondary survey before the primary
survey.
It would help me focus solely on the patient's vital signs and ignore
the mechanism of injury.
It would guide the assessment by ensuring that I evaluate the
mechanism of injury, identify injuries, note signs and symptoms, and
document treatment provided.
3. What is the urine output goal for patients who have suffered an electrical
injury?
0.5-1 mL/kg/hr
2-3 mL/kg/hr
3-4 mL/kg/hr
, 1-2 mL/kg/hr
4. In a scenario where a patient presents with severe hemorrhagic shock, which
assessment technique should be prioritized during the rapid assessment?
Urine output measurement
Primary survey
Fluid resuscitation protocol
Secondary survey
5. What is the minimum number of personnel required to safely log roll a patient
in trauma care?
Five
Three
Four
Two
6. Describe the importance of having multiple personnel when log rolling a
patient in trauma care.
Having multiple personnel ensures the patient's spine is stabilized
and reduces the risk of further injury.
Multiple personnel are needed to speed up the process of patient
transport.
More personnel are required to manage the patient's airway during
the log roll.
The number of personnel does not significantly impact the safety of
the log roll.
, 7. In a trauma scenario, if a patient exhibits a short distance between the
mentum and hyoid bone according to the 3-3-2 Rule, what might this indicate
for airway management?
No impact on airway management.
Ease of intubation.
Potential difficulty in intubation.
Immediate need for surgical airway intervention.
8. Describe the significance of the LEMON acronym in airway evaluation during
trauma care.
The LEMON acronym is a mnemonic for assessing neurological
function in trauma patients.
The LEMON acronym helps healthcare providers systematically
assess airway management challenges in trauma patients.
The LEMON acronym is used to determine the need for surgical
intervention in trauma cases.
The LEMON acronym outlines the steps for fluid resuscitation in
hemorrhagic shock.
9. What are the two main components involved in the rapid assessment of
trauma patients?
Patient history and physical examination
Fluid resuscitation and airway evaluation
Primary and secondary surveys
Urine output goals and injury assessment
