ATR 257 Exam 2 UPDATED ACTUAL
Questions and CORRECT Answers
Inflammation - CORRECT ANSWER redness (rubor), swelling (tumor), pain (dolor),
warmth (calor), loss of function (function laesa)
Acute Inflammatory Response - CORRECT ANSWER lasts 3-5 days
Steps: injury, vasoconstriction, vasodilation, swelling, increase vascular permeability, more
swelling, healing cells arrive, inflammation, phagocytosis
Vasoconstriction - CORRECT ANSWER blood vessel constriction; results in decreased
blood flow to the area of injury; lasts for 5-10 minutes
Secondary Hypoxic Injury - CORRECT ANSWER death od healthy cells due to decreased
oxygen supply
Vasodilation - CORRECT ANSWER blood vessels dilation; results in more blood coming
into the injured area; 2x diameter = 4x blood flow; increased blood flow results in swelling
Repair & Remodeling Phase - CORRECT ANSWER overlaps AIR; lasts for weeks to
months depending on injury severity
Maturation Phase - CORRECT ANSWER final step; overlaps R&R; lasts for months to a
year or more
Management of Injury - CORRECT ANSWER immediate management is designed to
control AIR; RICE (rest, ice, compression, elevation)
Rest - CORRECT ANSWER 24 hrs
Absolute: no activity
,Relative: no strenuous activity
Ice - CORRECT ANSWER directly to injury for 12-20 minutes for 72-100 hrs following
injury; never apply chemical cold pack directly to skin
Compression - CORRECT ANSWER wrap from distal to proximal; pressure gradient
decreases as wrap moves proximally; remove for sleep
Elevation - CORRECT ANSWER above heart; gravity causes swelling; called a gravity
dependent position
1st Priority: Immediate Life Threatening? - CORRECT ANSWER Use LOC-ABC
LOC?
difficult respiration?
difficult circulation?
Determining level of Consciousness - CORRECT ANSWER AVPU
pt. Alert, responds to Verbal stimulus, responds to Painful stimulus, Unresponsive
Determining status of Respiration & Circulation - CORRECT ANSWER ABC
Airway: head tilt, chin lift
Breathing: chest rise, listen, feel breath on cheek
Circulation: check pulse & major bleeding
All coaches should know? - CORRECT ANSWER First Aid & CPR
Rescue breaths: 1 br / 5 sec
CPR: cont. compr. for 1 min
Consc. choking: encourage coughing
Unconsc. choking: 30 abd. thrusts & 2 br.
, 2nd Priority: Potentially Life Threatening? - CORRECT ANSWER major bleeding?
abnormal BP? abn. pulse? abn. respiration? abn. temp?
3rd Priority: Limb Threatening? - CORRECT ANSWER major bleeding? loss of distal
pulse? loss of distal sensation?
4th Priority: Non-life/limb Threatening - CORRECT ANSWER Secondary survey: vitals,
other E! signs, head to toe eval, SAMPLE history
Pulse - CORRECT ANSWER normal resting = 80
take distal of injury (presense, rate, quality); DON'T use thumb
Respiration - CORRECT ANSWER normal resting= 12-14
hand on back & count rise & fall (presence, rate, quality)
Blood Pressure - CORRECT ANSWER normal resting= 120/80
BP cuff on R arm
high BP above 130/90
Pupil Response - CORRECT ANSWER PERRL
Pupils should be Equal, Round, & Reactive to Light
Skin - CORRECT ANSWER consistent color, assess temp. w/ back of hand & should be
consistent, temp. should= 98.6*F via oral themometer
Head to Toe Evaluation - CORRECT ANSWER blood or fluid from nose/ears, major
bleeding, obvious deformity, swelling, skin wounds, discoloration (ecchymosis)
