⩥ You arrive at the scene where a man fell approximately 40 feet and
landed on his head. He is unresponsive, has agonal gasps, and has a
weak
carotid pulse. Further assessment reveals an open head injury with
exposed brain matter. Upon identifying this patient as an organ donor,
you should:
A) request authorization from medical control not to initiate care.
B) manage the patient aggressively and provide rapid transport.
C) recognize that the patient's injuries disqualify him as an organ donor.
D) provide rapid transport only because the patient likely will not
survive. Answer: B) manage the patient aggressively and provide rapid
transport.
It is unlikely that the patient will survive his injury; however, he is still
breathing, albeit very poorly, and has a weak carotid pulse. Therefore,
you should begin
,immediate and aggressive treatment and transport him promptly, just as
you would with any other critically injured patient. It would clearly be
inappropriate
to request authorization to provide no care at all. If it is determined by a
physician that the patient will not survive his injury, his organs can
potentially be
harvested and save several Jives.
⩥ The set of regulations and ethical considerations that define the extent
or limits of an EMT's job is called:
A) a duty to act.
B) confidentiality.
C) the scope of practice.
D) the Medical Practices Act.. Answer: C) the scope of practice.
The set of legal regulations and ethical considerations that define the job
of the EMT is called the scope of practice. The scope of practice
provides a clear
delineation of the EMT's roles and responsibilities. Duty to act is defined
as a legal obligation to respond to every call for help while on duty and
in your
jurisdiction, whether you are paid for your services or not.
Confidentiality entails not releasing any patient information to those not
directly involved in the
,care of the patient. The Medical Practices Act describes the minimum
qualifications of those who may engage in emergency medical care and
establishes a
means of certification.
⩥ The safest emergency vehicle operator is one who:
A) is physically fit.
B) has a positive attitude.
C) drives with due regard.
D) drives with lights and siren.. Answer: C) drives with due regard.
One of the most important attributes of a safe emergency vehicle
operator is the ability to drive with due regard for others. This means
that the operator
must be aware of others around him or her and to keep their safety in
mind. The EMT should never assume that all drivers will see or hear the
ambulance. A
positive attitude about one's ability to safely operate an emergency
vehicle is also an important attribute. Although sometimes indicated
because of the
patient's condition, the use of lights and siren increases the risk of an
ambulance crash.
⩥ During the triage process, which of the fo llowing injuries or
conditions would classify a patient as a high priority?
, A) Pulselessness and apnea
B) Unilateral femur fracture and tachycardia
C) Partial-thickness burns with no respiratory difficulty
D) A large avulsion to the arm and an altered mental status. Answer: D)
A large avulsion to the arm and an altered mental status
During triage, patients with an altered mental status, who are in shock,
or who have problems with their airway, breathing, or circulation are
potentially
salvageable and are given immediate priority. Patients who are pulseless
and apneic have low priority in a mass-casualty situation. If you focus
your efforts
on cardiac arrest patients, who will most likely not survive anyway,
patients who could have potentially been saved will die as well.
Remember, the goal of
triage is to provide the greatest good for the greatest number of patients.
⩥ Regardless of their location in the ambulance, portable oxygen
cylinders should always:
A) have a flowmeter attached to them.
B) be scured by fixed clasps or housings.
C) contain at least 1,000 psi of pressure.
D) be stored together with an oxygen mask.. Answer: Regardless of
where portable oxygen cylinders are stored in the ambulance, they must
always be secured by fixed clasps or housings to prevent accidental
