How much blood can FAST detect
Give this one a try later!
Volumes greater than 400 ml in peritoneal space
Surgical cric

Open the cricoid membrane with scalpel.
ET or tracheotomy tube is then inserted. Typically the ET is #5 or slightly
smaller.
Be prepared for large amounts of subcutaneous emphysema of the face,
neck, and chest following this procedure
, ** Not recommended in children < 12 years of age because the cricoid
cartilage provides the only circumferential support of trachea
What causes acidosis in trauma?
Give this one a try later!
Hypothermia >> vasoconstriction >> dec perfusion to tissues >> anaerobic
metab + lactic acid production
Blood loss >> same as above
Resp depression >> resp acidosis
Tx for moderate (30-34) or severe (< 30) hypothermia
Give this one a try later!
** Use passive and active external re-warming ONLY TO TRUNK to prevent
afterdrop
May also use internal re-warming:
- Heated humidified O2
- Peritoneal lavage w/ warmed fluids
- Extracorporeal warming (ie. bypass, HD, arterio-venous re-warming)
Needle Cricothyroidotomy
