A 6-year-o boy is struck by D. Percutaneous peripheral veins in the upper extremities
an automobile and brought
to the ED. He is lethargic,
but withdraws purposefully
from painful stimuli. His
blood pressure is 90mmHg
systolic, heart rate 140
beats per minute and his
respiratory rate is 36
breaths per minute.
The preferred route of
venous access in this
patient is:
A. Percutaneous femoral vein
cannulation
B. Cutdown on the
saphenous vein at the
ankle
C. Intraosseous catheter
placement in the proximal
tibia
D. Percutaneous
peripheral veins in the
upper extremities
E. Central venous access via
the subclavian or internal
jugular vein
,3/17/25, 9:27 PM ATLS combined
A young man sustains a C. Control internal hemorrhage operatively
gunshot wound to the
abdomen and is brought
promptly to the ED by
prehospital personnel. His
skin is cool and diaphoretic,
and he is confused. His
pulse is thready and his
femoral pulse is only weakly
palpable. The definitive
treatment in managing this
patient is to:
A. Administer O-negative blood
B. Apply external warming
devices
C. Control internal hemorrhage
operatively
D. Apply a pneumatic
antishock garment (PASG)
E. Infuse large volumes of
intravenous crystalloid
solutions.
Regarding shock in the D. The absolute volume of blood loss required to
child, which of the following produce shock is the same as in adults
is FALSE?
A. Vital signs are age-related
B. Children have greater
physiologic reserves
than do adults
C. Tachycardia is the
primary physiologic
response to hypovolemia
D. The absolute volume of
blood loss required to
produce shock is the same
as in adults
E. An initial fluid bolus for
resuscitation should
1/149

approximate 20ml/kg
Ringers Lactate
A 33-year-old man is struck D. Perform diagnostic peritoneal lavage or FAST
by a car travelling at
56km/h (35mph). He has
obvious fractures of the left
tibia near the knee, pain in
the pelvic area, and severe
dyspnea. His heart rate is
182 beats per minute, and
his respiratory rate is 48
breaths per minute with no
breath sounds heard in the
left chest. A tension
pneumothorax is relieved by
immediate needle
decompression and tube
thoracostomy.
Subsequently, his heart rate
decreases to 144 beats per
minute, his respirartory rate
decreases to 36 breaths per
minute and his blood
pressure is 81/53 mmHg.
Warmed Ringers lactate is
adminstered intravenously.
The next priority should be
to:
A. Perform external fixation of
the pelvis
B. Obtain abdominal and pelvic
CT-scans
2/149
, 3/17/25, 9:27 PM ATLS combined
C. Perform arterial
embolization of the
pelvic vessel
D. Perform diagnostic
peritoneal lavage or FAST
E. Perform a urethrogram and
cystogram
Which of the following is C. Warm (40 degrees) water
the recommended Method
for trestemt frostbite?
A. Vasodilators
B. Anticigulants
C. Warm (40 degrees) water
D. Padding and elevation
E. Application of heat from a
hairdryer
Which of the following D. Presence of deep tendon reflexes. Spinal shock
physical findings suggest a refers to loss of muscle toe (flaccidty) and loss of
cause of hypotension other reflexes.
than spinal cord injury?
A. Prispism
B. Bradycardia
C. Diaphragmatic breathing
D. Presence of deep tendon
reflexes
E. Ability to flex forearms
but not extend them
