C- what is the circulatory status? MM, CRT, pulse, heart rate
listen to heart while palpating pulse to make sure pulsing @ same time
Priority is given to treating level of unconsciousness
Respiratory
Cardiac
Vascular problems
, Other systems are then evaluated in a systematic manner- crash plan
If unconscious Extend head and neck
Assess the airway for patency- watch respiratory pattern
Once level of consciousness has been evaluated Assess the airway-listen to lungs
Circulation assessed-CRT, pulse deficit
Thorax and abdomen percussed
Arterial bleeding is a serious priority Uncommon problem- don't make it to clinic fast
enough
Apply direct pressure immediately
Vessel can be clamped
