Overall Assessment Scheme Scene Size-Up Initial Assessment Trauma Medical Physical Exam SAMPLE History Vital Signs & SAMPLE History Physical Exam & Vital Signs HOSP Detailed Physical Exam Ongoing Assessment

Steps of the Ongoing Assessment (This step should never be skipped unless the treatment of life-threatening injuries/illnesses prevent doing it)

Reassess at least every 15 minutes. Reassess at least every 5 minutes. Reassessment Stable? Reassess at least every 15 minutes. Unstable? Reassess at least every 5 minutes.

Steps of the Ongoing Assessment Repeat initial assessment. Reassess and record vital signs. Repeat focused assessment regarding patient complaints and injuries. Check on interventions/treatment in progress.

Repeat Initial Assessment Reassess mental status. Maintain open airway. Monitor breathing (rate and quality).

Repeat Initial Assessment Reassess pulse (rate and quality). Monitor skin (color, temperature, condition). Reassess capillary refill in pediatric patients. Reevaluate patient’s priority.

Reassess and record vital signs.

Repeat focused assessment.

Check interventions.

Check Interventions Is oxygen delivery adequate? Look at skin color. Are artificial ventilations adequate? Make sure chest rises and falls. Changes in pulse oximetry reading? Make sure local protocols allow its use.

Check Interventions Are there any signs of bleeding? Look for new blood. Any other conditions or changes? Check splinted extremities for distal pulse, sensation, and movement.

Observing Trends Trends are changes over time. Changes noted over time are significant (e.g. changes in BP or pulse). EMT may need to adjust or establish new treatments.
