What are the greatest risks Loss of airway patency, displaced obstructive tubes lines or
for transport? catheters, dislodge splinting devices, need to replace or
reinforce dressings, deterioration in patient status change in
vital signs or level of consciousness,
injury to the patient and/or team members
According to newtons law Neither. For each force there is an equal and opposite reaction.
which of these two forces is
greater: size or force?
What is the relationship Kinetic energy is equal to 1/2 the mass multiplied the square
between mass and velocity of its velocity therefore when mass is doubled so is the net
to kinetic energy? energy, however, when velocity is doubled energy is
quadrupled.
What is tension? stretching force by pulling at opposite ends
What is compression? Crushing by squeezing together
What is bending? Loading about an axis. Bending causes compression on the
side the person is bending toward intention to the
opposite side
What is shearing? Damage by tearing or bending by exerting faucet different parts
in opposite directions at the same time.
What is torsion? Torsion forces twist ends in opposite directions.
What is combined loading? Any combination of tension compression torsion bending
and/or shear.
What are the four types of Blunt, penetrating, thermal, or blast.
trauma related injuries?
, What are contributing The point of impact on the patient's body, the type of
factors to injuries related to surface that is hit, the tissues ability to resist (bone versus
blunt traumas? soft tissue, air-filled versus solid organs), and the trajectory
of force.
What are the seven patterns Up and over, down and under, lateral, rotational, rear, roll over,
of pathway injuries related and ejection.
to motor vehicle accidents?
Differentiate between the The first impact occurs when the vehicle collided with
three impacts of motor another object. The second impact occurs after the initial
vehicle impact sequence. impact when the occupant continues to move in the original
direction of travel until they collide with the interior of the
vehicle or meet resistance. The third impact occurs when
internal structures collide within the body cavity.
What are the three factors The point of impact, the velocity and speed of impact, and the
that contribute to the proximity to the object.
damage caused by
penetrating trauma's?
What causes the primary The direct blast effects. Types of injuries include last long,
effects of blast traumas? tympanic membrane rupture and middle ear damage,
abdominal hemorrhage and perforation, global rupture,
mild Trumatic brain injury.
What causes the secondary Projectiles propelled by the explosion. Injuries include
effects of blast traumas? penetrating or blunt injuries or I penetration.
Results from individuals being thrown by the blast wind.
What causes the tertiary Injuries include hole or partial body translocation from
effects of blast traumas? being thrown against a hard service: blunt or penetrating
trauma's, fractures, traumatic amputations.
