The first session is on the we're breaking down looking at critical assessments or critical findings in the primary assessment. And this one's gonna focus really on the general impression in mental health and mental status that we encounter in sports injury. We're moving right down into determine where what this what we may find specifically to those 2 areas.
03:53
What we are looking for are these five things. So obvious bleeding body fluids or other obstruction blocking the airway, significant chest trauma, with that specific open chest wound or paradoxical flail chest. And then also from mental status with the ARAPPU, look at what that presents to is pain.
07:42
If you're having a problem with either the anterior, the posterior, or the lateral chest wall, we you're and and they're having other signs of a pneumothorax, then the intervention is simply going to be you gotta use a a chest vent. When we also think about Excuse me. Others out of chest trauma. And you see here in the picture here, you're looking simply at this is an example of a a flail chest.
11:32
Think about any, you know, anatomic deformity of the spine that's observed on palpation or visual. Think about the distracting circumstances of an injury. And then the final thing we're thinking about is altered mental status.
15:42
There's a high correlation between the glascoma scale and what that descriptor looks like in those values of glas coma scale. The thing the questing gets into is whereas, you know, confusion gets into that they appear to be confused. So in review, so those are the 5 areas.
20:01
ABPU, what would you classify as limited knowledge? Well, this could still still be alert. Her eyes are open. The again, the question is how she's responding. If you get into that web and they're confused, and you're thinking now this becomes more.
24:08
I'm I'm thinking of as far as the breathing side is and I did this, and I don't realize I I even did it till this now, but one of the slides of his phone up, which is front of front of neck access is where you had damage to the neck as well. So There's some things to think about if we're having equipment where that ties in. So I know we got Brandon probably running close here a little bit. Let's go ahead and I think we can make this up, still keep this on on track.
