SSM TCAR REVIEW EXAM WITH CORRECT
ACTUAL QUESTIONS AND CORRECTLY
WELL DEFINED ANSWERS LATEST
ALREADY GRADED A+ 2025 – 2026
What is the risk of aggressive fluid resuscitation? -
ANSWERS-It contributes to endothelial damage and
capillary leakage
What is the preferred fluid replacement with hemorrhagic
loss? - ANSWERS-Plasma is the preferred initial
replacement. It has large molecules that stay in the vascular
space. It also contains the clotting factors, which address
bleeding.
What is TIC-Trauma induced coagulopathy? - ANSWERS-Is is
stimulated by factors released from damaged cells,
particularly the brain. Two tests that monitor it- TEG or
,ROTEM which provide real-time visual representation of clot
formation and lysis
What are the risks of Lefort Fractures? - ANSWERS-They are
associated with hemorrhage and airway comprimise due to
blood in the airway, edema, and unsupported facial bones.
Keep patient sitting up and leaning forward. If they have
resp effort, apply O2 by any means.
What is hyphema and how is it treated? - ANSWERS-It is
blood in the anterior chamber of the eye. Elevate HOB to
pool blood in the lower portion of the anterior chamber.
Avoid analgesics with antiplatelet effects - NSAIDS and ASA
What is Zone 1 of the neck? - ANSWERS-It is the lowermost
portion, from the sternal notch to cricoid cartilage
Dose of energy is? - ANSWERS-The nature and amount of
force
Characteristic of wounding agent? - ANSWERS-Type of
energy and how it was applied
,Force - ANSWERS-The dose of energy involved
Which gender is the majority of trauma? - ANSWERS-Male
Incidence of trauma peaks at what age? - ANSWERS-Teens
and young adult
Blunt trauma Classifications include? - ANSWERS-MVA
Auto vs. pedestrian
Falls
Struck by or against an object
Trauma mortality based on organ system failure? -
ANSWERS-1 organ system failure=4%
2 organ system failures=32%
3 organ system failures=67%
4 organ system failures=90%
What are the four collisions? - ANSWERS-1. The vehicle
2. The occupants
3. The internal organs
, 4. The secondary impacts
Energy transmission in a rollover depends on? - ANSWERS-
Deceleration distance
Energy is dissipated over the distance of the roll and
whether or not the occupants are restrained
Car vs pedestrian injuries depend on? - ANSWERS-Point of
contact with the care
Height of hood & bumper
Size & weight of vehicle
Height of patient
Direction patient was facing when struck
What is the most common mechanism of injury in all age
groups? - ANSWERS-Falls
Factors predicting fall injuries are? - ANSWERS-Fall height
(velocity)
Landing surface (deceleration distance)
Point of impact on the body
