MARCH mneumonicMassive Hemorrhage: Control with combat gauze, celox gauze, or chito gauze; replacement of blood loss with whole blood or 1:1:1 ratio of plasma, RBC, and platelets to achieve SBP of 80-90mmHg. Airway: Establish and maintain patent airway Respiration: Decompress suspected tension pneumothorax, seal open chest wounds, and support ventilation and oxygenation as required. Circulation: Provide vascular access (IV/IO) and administer fluids as required to treat shock Head inju...

C What are the primary benefits of a team approach to trauma careit provides a systemic approach to care and organizes care A In the primary survey AVPU is performed to determine if the patient can:Protect their aiway B WHich may lead to unreliable pulse ox readingcarboxyhemoglobin A The systemic inflammatory response is a normal part of the body's response to shock from traumatic injury. what best describes this responseit is activated by tissue hypoxia and sends neutrophils to inju...

Why is a measure of serum lactate obtained in the initial assessment of the trauma patient? Answer: ca) to measure oxygenation and ventilation b) to quantify the base deficit for the adequacy of cellular perfusion c) *to gauge end-organ perfusion and tissue hypoxia ** d) to determine the underlying cause of shock A trauma patient is restless and repeatedly asking "where am I?" vital signs upon arrival were BP 100/60 mm Hg, HR 96 beats/min, and RR 24 breaths/min. Her skin is cool and dr...

What are the greatest risks for transport?Loss of airway patency, displaced obstructive tubes lines or 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 which of these two force is greater: size or force?Neither. For each force there is an equal and opposite reaction. What is the relationship between mass and ve...
