Immediate death occurring at time of injury – i.e. due to devastating wounds/lacerations - Early death occurring within the 1st few hours of injury – i.e. tension pneumothorax, blood loss, IC bleed - Late death occurring days / weeks after initial injury – i.e. 20 complications – sepsis, ARDS, SIRS, MOF MAIN PRINCIPLES: - Treat greatest threat to life first - Definitive diagnosis is less important - Time is important – the “golden hour” after trauma is when 30% of trauma deaths occur, and are preventable by ATLS APPROACH (INITIAL ASSESSMENT) 1. Preparation and Triage 2. Primary survey (ABCDE) and Resuscitation of Vital Functions 3. Re-evaluation of the patient and taking a History of the event 4. Secondary survey (head-to-toe evaluation) 5. Post-resuscitation monitoring and re-evaluation 6. Optimise for transfer and definitive care PRIMARY SURVEY (ABCDE) AND RESUSCITATION 1. AIRWAY ASSESSMENT WITH CERVICAL SPINE CONTROL - Ascertain pathway (1) Foreign Bodies, (2) Facial/Mandibular #, (3) Laryngeal/Tracheal # - Assess for airway obstruction Engage the patient in conversation – a patient who cannot respond verbally is assumed to have an obstructed airway till proven otherwise (1) stridor, (2) retractions, (3) cyanosis - Establish a patient airway Jaw Thrust – displace tongue anteriorly from the pharyngeal inlet relieving obstruction Simple Suctioning / Clear Airway of Foreign Bodies Nasopharyngeal airway / Oropharyngeal Airway Establish a definitive airway a. Tracheal Intubation (refer anaesthesia notes for more details) o Orotracheal route using rapid-sequence induction (RSI) o Pre-oxygenate patient with 100% Oxygen o In-line cervical spine stabilisation wither anterior portion of cervical collar removed o Sellick Manoeuvre to prevent aspiration (there is increasing controversy as to the utility of cricoid pressure due to concerns about its efficacy and potential for obscuring the view of the vocal chords) o Drugs – short acting sedative or hypnotic agent (i.e. etomidate 0.3mg/kg IV or midazolam 1-2.5mg IV) and paralytic agent administered immediately after the sedative (succinylcholine 1- 1.25mg/kg IV or rocuronium 0.6-0.85mg/kg IV) o ETT tube inserted through vocal chords and adequacy of ventilation is assessed b. Needle Cricothyroidectomy with jet insufflation of the airway c. Surgical Cricothyroidectomy - In a multi-system trauma patient assume cervical spine injury till proven otherwise NEXUS C-Spine Clearance (NSAID) a. No focal Neurological deficit b. No Spinal (posterior midline cervical) tenderness c. Patient is Alert and orientated to time / place / person d. No evidence of Intoxication e. No painful Distracting injuries (i.e. long bone fracture) [Show More]
