- The initial survey reveals a patent airway with no evidence of current obstruction. Breathing is tachypneic and regular, with accessory muscle use indicating increased effort. Circulation characterized by tachycardia and mild hypotension. There are 1+ distal pulses bilaterally, and the skin is warm and dry. At the ER, an ECG reveals sinus tachycardia of 129, which resolves without any prior medical management. Sinus at 98 beats per minute. The patient is on non- rebreather mask and the vital parameters are: Temperature- 37.7 degree centigrade Heart rate - 128 beats/ minute Respiratory rate - 25 breaths/ minute Blood pressure - 100/60 mmHg And saturation - 92% Using the ABC, identify the life threatening injuries of the patient. Why? A-AIRWAY B-BREATHING C-CIRCULATIONApproach to a patient with Difficulty in breathing: A 25-year-old man is brought to the emergency department following a stab wound to the right back. He is complaining of difficulty breathing and severe pain on his right side. His vital signs on arriving are a blood pressure of 140/88 mm Hg, heart rate of 100bpm, respiratory rate of 25/minute with oxygen saturation of 90% by pulse oximetry. While undergoing a chest radiograph, he becomes agitated and develops severe respiratory distress. Vital signs are now blood pressure 80/60 mm Hg, heart rate 125bpm, respiratory rate 40/minute and oxygen saturator of 75% by pulse oximetry. Chest examinant reveals an absence of breath sounds and hyperresonance over the right lung field. Neck examination reveals distended neck veins and tracheal deviation to the left side.
