Approach to trauma patient Dr. Abdulaziz Alrabiah, MD Emergency Medicine, Trauma & EMS specialist

Objective Fun part of EM Primary Survey Secondary survey Investigations in each survey

Fun part why?! Every one try to participate Well structured approach Courses available ( EMST, ATLS)

Primary survey A : Airway and C-spine immobilisation B : Breathing C : Circulation and Bleeding control D : Disability E : Exposure

A : Airway + C-spine immobilisation evaluate for patent airway if patient is able to talk clearly —> patent airway i.e. clear from obstruction C-spine : must be immobilised i.e. application of c-collar, foam pads taped to forehead or ask the patient to keep still !!

A : Airway + C-spine immobilisation

B : Breathing check: paradoxical movement of chest wall segment tracheal deviation chest wall tenderness equal air entry bilateral

C : Circulation and bleeding control vital signs i.e. pulse, BP skin colour presence or absence of peripheral pulse i.e. U & L limbs control bleeding direct pressure ( the best ) application of tourniquet limb elevation vessels clamp ( vascular clamp) place two large IV access ( 14G , 16G , 18G) if failed , do IO access i.e. proximal tibia, humorous no central line

D : Disability two parts exam GCS : level of consciousness mild 15-14 moderate 13-9 sever <8 Pupil exam : normal 3 mm equal and reactive to light

GCS

E : Exposure Expose the patient ( cut the cloths ) and look for any injury prevent hypothermia i.e. immediately cover the patient

How should I proceed? if you find a pathology at any above step, don't proceed to the next step unless your correct the pathology

A : Airway + C-spine immobilisation A : Airway pathology visible FB bleeding stridor i.e. expanding neck heamtoma Rx : remove visible FB , suction blood , Intubation if stridor present if C-spine fractured, neck already immobilised

B : Breathing looking for tension pneumothorax it is clinical diagnosis signs: tachycardia, hypotension, tracheal deviation to opposite site, decrease air entry in same site and hyper resonant to percussion. treatment : needle decompression ( 2nd intercostal space, mid clavicular line ) then insertion of chest drain ( 5th intercostal space, between anterior and mid axillae line )

C : Circulation and bleeding control control external bleeding fluid replacement ringer lactate > normal saline , due to less hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis give 2 L max. if no response start blood transfusion RBC, PLT , FFP at ratio of 1:1:1

D : Disability if GCS less than or equal 8 —> intubate the patient using rapid sequence intubation “RSI”

E : Exposure expose the patient present hypothermia look for any bruise, deformity correct the correctable pathology i.e. deformed limb reduction.

Adjunct to Primary survey

BGL test do not ever forget glucose !!

X-ray C-spine X-ray ( 3 views ) lateral anterior - posterior open mouth chest x-ray pelvic X-ray

eFAST scan ultrasound of the chest and abdomen aim to detect pneumothorax detect intor-peritoneal bleed and pericardial effusion

RUQ scan

LUQ scan

Bladder scan

Pericardial scan

Lung Scan

Secondary Survey

Secondary Survey AMPLE history head to Toe exam

Secondary Survey A : Allergy M : Medications P : past medical/Surgical History , Pregnancy L : last meal and drink E : event = mechanism of injury

head & face exam laceration bleeding deformity missed teeth CSF leakage raccoon’s eye Battle sign

Neck bruise wound bleeding haematoma i.e. expanding

chest like primary survey cardio exam chest wall tenderness

Abdomen bruise wounds distension tenderness

Pelvis lateral compression of pelvis —> to check for instability

Genital exam blood at urethral meatus i.e. urethral injury cation in putting urinary catheter perform retrograde urethrogram before insertion

upper and lower limb exam deformity loss of pulse loss of motor and sensory function

back exam log roll! spine exam top to bottom, looking for spinal tenderness , deformity wound , laceration bruise do rectal exam

Adjunct to secondary survey X-rays limbs CT scan blood tests group and safe blood urine test : for blood and pregnancy

Thank you
