Title: A 24-year-old male has been stabbed in the throat, and has what appears to be significant blood loss Post by: citylites on Dec 29, 2015 A 24-year-old male has been stabbed in the throat, and has what appears to be significant blood loss. He does not respond to your voice and you can hear gurgling with each shallow breath that he takes. Bleeding from the wound continues. Which of the following should you do?
A) Apply direct pressure to the wound, turn the patient on his side, suction the airway, and communicate the situation to the responding ambulance crew. B) Apply direct pressure to the wound while simultaneously opening the airway, and then apply oxygen with a nonrebreather mask. C) Open the airway with a jaw-thrust maneuver, begin ventilations with a BVM, and then apply direct pressure to the wound. D) Apply direct pressure to the wound while simultaneously opening the airway, suction blood from the airway, and begin ventilations with a BVM.
