Title: Your patient is a 60-year-old female restrained driver involved in a moderate-speed, frontal-impact Post by: Nix4Pres on Mar 20, 2016 Your patient is a 60-year-old female restrained driver involved in a moderate-speed, frontal-impact collision. When you arrive at the scene, she is sitting up in the driver's seat with a chief complaint of a burning sensation of her face. You note abrasions from deployment of the airbag. After immobilizing the patient on a long backboard, you begin transport. As you perform a detailed examination, the patient complains of developing right shoulder pain. Which of the following should you suspect?
A) Exacerbation of the patient's arthritis due to immobilization on the backboard B) Shoulder contusion or possible clavicle fracture due to restraint by the shoulder harness C) Myocardial contusion D) Intra-abdominal bleeding Title: Re: Your patient is a 60-year-old female restrained driver involved in a moderate-speed, frontal-imp Post by: feijoa on Apr 4, 2016 Content hidden
