A 22-year-old man is hypotensive and re-examine the chest
tachycardic after a shotgun wound to the
left shoulder. His blood pressure is initially
80/40 mm Hg. After initial fluid
resuscitation his blood pressure increases
to 122/84 mm Hg. His heart rate is now 100
beats per minute and his respiratory rate is
28 breaths per minute. A tube
thoracostomy is performed for decreased
left chest breath sounds with the return of a
small amount of blood and no air leak.
After chest tube insertion, the most
appropriate next step is:
A construction worker falls two stories complete spine x-ray series
from a building and sustains bilateral
calcaneal fractures. In the emergency
department, he is alert, vital signs are
normal, and he is complaining of severe
pain in both heels and his lower back.
Lower extremity pulses are strong and
there is no other deformity. The suspected
diagnosis is most likely to be confirmed by:
Which of the following is true regarding the Evidence of improved perfusion after fluid resuscitation could include improvement
initial resuscitation of a trauma patient? in Glasgow Coma Scale score on reevaluation.
In managing a patient with a severe secure the airway
traumatic brain injury, the most important
initial step is to:
, A previously healthy, 70-kg (154-pound) An ABG would demonstrate a base deficit between -6 and -10 mEq/L.

of 2 liters. Which one of the following
statements applies to this patient?

A 7-year-old boy is brought to the direct pressure on the wound
emergency department by his parents

crash, a 25-year-old man is brought to a
hospital that has surgery capabilities
available.. Computed tomography of the

vehicular crash, is admitted to the
emergency department. His pupils react
sluggishly and his eyes open to pressure.
He does not follow commands, but he
does moan periodically. His right arm is
deformed and does not respond to
pressure; however, his left hand reaches
purposefully toward the stimulus. Both legs
are stiffly extended. His GCS score is:
