Abnormal adult respiratory rate that needs intervention (airway, bag assist etc..)ANS - <8 and >24
When to do spinal mobilization in initial assessmentANS - Right after airway A,(C-spine)B,C,(Control bleeding)
3 things that stop your assessment right away.ANS - scene hazard, airway obstruction, cardiac arrest
During the Primary Survey, when do you Control major bleedingANS - In the Initial assessment
Airway, breathing, circulation, control bleeding
When the injury occurs, what clock just started?ANS - The "Golden Period" (used to be the golden hour)
Max length of your initial assessmentANS - 2 min.
Max length of "load and go" scene time?ANS - Critical trauma scene time is 5 min. or less.
ELM stands for?ANS - External Laryngeal Manipulation
Selick vs. ELMANS - Selick is when you close the esophagus to prevent air in the gastric. ELM is a manipulation technique to move the airway into alignment for intubation.
