_________________________________________, an uncommon but highly lethal
complication of long-bone fractures, can lead to pulmonary failure and impaired
cerebral function. - ANSWERFat embolism
Hemorrhage control is best achieved with: - ANSWERDirect pressure
________________________________________________________________ if
left untreated can lead to renal failure and shock. - ANSWERCrush syndrome, or
traumatic rhabdomyolysis
The muscle insult (from a crush injury) is a combination of: - ANSWERDirect muscle
injury, muscle ischemia, and cell death with release of myoglobin
____________________________ produces dark amber urine that tests positive for
hemoglobin - ANSWERMyoglobin
______________________________________________________ of fractures can
significantly decrease bleeding by reducing motion and enhancing tamponade effect
of the muscle and fascia. - ANSWERSplinting of fractures
The _________________________________________ is determined by taking the
systolic blood pressure value at the ankle of the injured leg and dividing it by the
systolic blood pressure of the uninjured arm. - ANSWERAnkle / Brachial Index
After application of _______________________________________, if time to
operative intervention is longer than 1 hour, a single attempt to deflate the tourniquet
may be considered in an otherwise stable patient. - ANSWERa tourniquet
