A 20-year-old male has a large laceration to his wrist. A. apply a tourni- He is holding a blood-soaked towel over the wound, but it continues to bleed rapidly. You should: A. apply a tourniquet proximal to the wrist. B. administer high-flow supplemental oxygen. C. apply pressure to the brachial artery. D. wrap the towel with pressure bandages. quet proximal to the wrist. 2. A 25-year-old unrestrained female struck the steering D. Rapid transport wheel with her chest when her car hit a tree while traveling at a high rate of speed. She has signs and symptoms of shock, which you suspect are the result of intrathoracic bleeding. Which of the following in- terventions will provide this patient with the greatest chance for survival? A. Intravenous fluid administration B. High-flow oxygen administration C. Full immobilization of her spine D. Rapid transport to a trauma center 3. As you approach a patient lying at the side of the roadway, you observe severe bleeding from the leg. What should your first action be? A. Administer oxygen. B. Check for a pulse. C. Open the airway. D. Control the bleeding. 4. Distributive shock occurs when: A. widespread dilation of the blood vessels causes blood to pool in the vascular beds. B. an injury causes restriction of the heart muscle and impairs its pumping function. C. severe bleeding causes tachycardia in order to distribute blood to the organs faster. to a trauma center D. Control the bleeding A. widespread di- lation of the blood vessels causes blood to pool in the vascular beds. D. temporary but severe vasodilation causes a de- crease in blood supply to the brain. 5. Foods, medications, and insects are common causes of . A. neurogenic shock B. psychogenic shock C. septic shock D. anaphylactic shock 6. Hypovolemic shock caused by severe burns is the result of a loss of: A. red blood cells. B. whole blood. C. platelets. D. plasma. 7. In an acute injury setting, neurogenic shock is com- monly accompanied by: A. diaphoresis. B. tachycardia. C. hypovolemia. D. hypothermia. 8. Inadequate circulation of blood throughout the body is called . A. shock B. perfusion C. hypotension D. hypoxia 9. Pulmonary edema and impaired ventilation occur during: A. septic shock. B. cardiogenic shock. D. anaphylactic shock D. plasma. D. hypothermia A. shock B. cardiogenic shock. C. neurogenic shock. D. anaphylactic shock. 10. Shock due to severe infection is called . A. neurogenic shock B. septic shock C. hypovolemic shock D. anaphylactic shock 11. To protect vital organs, the body compensates by directing blood flow away from organs that are more tolerant of low flow, such as: A. the heart. B. the skin. C. the brain. D. the lungs. 12. What are the three components of the "perfusion triangle"? A. Plasma, red blood cells, platelets B. Heart, blood vessels, blood C. Heart, brain, lungs D. Arteries, veins, capillaries 13. When assessing a patient with signs and symptoms of shock, it is important to remember that: A. blood pressure may be the last measurable factor to change in shock. B. multiple fractures are the most common cause of hypovolemic shock. C. irreversible shock often responds well to a prompt blood transfusion. D. the patient's respirations are deep during the early stages of shock. B. septic shock B. the skin. B. Heart, blood vessels, blood A. blood pressure may be the last measurable fac- tor to change in shock. 14. When should nonlifesaving interventions be per- formed for your multisystem trauma patient? A. During the primary assessment B. Immediately after the injuries are discovered C. Prior to transport D. En route to the hospital D. En route to the hospital 15. When treating an 80-year-old patient who is in shock, B. changes in gas- it is important to remember that: A. medications older patients take for hypertension often cause an unusually fast heart rate. B. changes in gastric motility may delay gastric emp- tying, which increases the risk for vomiting. C. compensation from the respiratory system usually manifests with increased tidal volume. D. the older patient's central nervous system usually reacts more briskly to compensate for shock. 16. Which of the following injuries would MOST likely cause obstructive shock? A. Cardiac tamponade B. Simple pneumothorax C. Spinal cord injury D. Liver laceration 17. Which of the following is the ONLY action that can prevent eventual death from a tension pneumotho- rax? A. Rapid administration of intravenous fluids B. Decompression of the injured side of the chest C. Positive-pressure ventilation with a bag-valve mask D. Early administration of high-flow oxygen 18. You suspect your patient is in shock. You note the pa- tient's skin is pale. This is likely due to . tric motility may delay gastric emp- tying, which in- creases the risk for vomiting. A. Cardiac tam- ponade B. Decompression of the injured side of the chest B. peripheral vaso- constriction A. peripheral vasodilation B. peripheral vasoconstriction C. an increased heart rate D. hypothermia 19. Your patient has a decreased cardiac output and poor myocardial contractility. This will likely lead to . A. hypovolemic shock B. cardiogenic shock C. neurogenic shock D. septic shock 20. Your patient is in shock, but the body's defense mech- anisms are currently able to maintain adequate circu- lation. This is called . A. compensated shock B. irreversible shock C. decompensated shock D. late shock 21. A 12-year-old male jumped approximately 12 feet from a tree and landed on his feet. He complains of pain to his lower back. What injury mechanism is MOST likely responsible for his back pain? A. Lateral impact to the spine B. Direct trauma to the spinal column
