Trauma Systems Assessment + Alarm Parameters

Welcome back to another episode of the New Grad Radio Podcast! The other day, I had a valid question from one of my students. Only moments prior to my arrival, he had already recorded vital signs for all of my patients. Yet, he was confused as to why I prioritised a repeat set, and a full head to toe on one of my trauma patients. In today’s episode, I explain what I’m looking for during a head to toe assessment for a patient coming of a mechanism of injury that could mask secondary injuries; plus I go over the importance of setting tight alarm Parameters for such patients as well.
