  1. Trauma & Shock Scenarios Use of critical thinking skills!!

  2. When viewing the next slide consider the following priorities: 1. How would client have been managed initially at the scene of accident? 2.How would this patient have been prioritized in ER (rate as ESI-1 to ESI-5) 3. What actions would trauma team take initially to stabilize this patient… what priorities? 4. What type of shock would this patient initially experience…what other type of shock do you anticipate for this patient? 5. What potential complications

  3. Scenario • 63 yo male • Stab wounds to left upper abdomen • Fighting off intruder in his home What questions come to mind? Trauma.org

  4. Questions to ask yourself? • What will you expect to see on arrival? • What assessments will you complete?

  5. ASSESSMENT • LOC: • No response to commands • Response to pain: • No response to pain • Vitals: • BP 72/52 -HR 114 • RR 8, irreg, periods of apnea -Temp 97.8

  6. Dr. G Dr. G is the new medical resident in the ER, first day is today. Which action by Dr. G would require you to intervene? A. Orders for STAT ECG B. Dr. G orders 1/2NS to run 200mls/hr C. Dr. G orders urinary catheter placement D. Dr. G orders STAT CBC, Mg, & COMP WHY?

  7. After arrival to ED • 2000ml LR infused before arrival • Taken to Surgery ----- 4 hr procedure • 3L LR & 6 units PRBC’s • Antibiotic therapy started • Right thoracotomy • Chest tube placement – 500mls bright blood noted • Right upper laparotomy • Liver & Duodenal laceration repaired • Cavity irrigated with antibiotic solution • 3 drains placed Then transferred to ICU

  8. Thoracotomy

  9. Lapartomy

  10. LABS After transfer to ICU Vitals • BP 92/52 RR 12 • HR 114 Temp 97.1 • PAWP 6 CO/CI 5/2.5 • SVR 1040 CVP 4 CBC • WBC 13.6 • Hgb 10 • HCT 31 ABG • pH 7.34 PaCO2 36mmHg • HCO3 21mEq/L PaO2 84mmHG • O2 sats 88%

  11. SHOCK Is this patient showing signs of shock? What types of shock might he develop? What are some signs & symptoms of each?

  12. Making Assignments • You must assign an ICU staff nurse to care for this patient. Who is most appropriate? A. A temporary agency nurse, with extensive previous ICU experience, who has been in your ICU for 3 days B. A LPN with 10 years of experience in your ICU, who is in the last semester of an RN program C. A RN who has worked in your ICU for 2 1/2 years after transferring from the mother-baby unit D. A RN who has 12 years experience in the ER and has been floated to ICU today

  13. UhOh!!!! • Client remains stable until post-op day 2. • Vent Settings • Rate 12 FiO2 0.80 TV 800 • NG drainage • 200ml/8hr • JP drains xs 3 • Total 60ml/8hr • UO • 40-50ml/hr • LOC • agitation • Resp • SaO2 64
