Initial assessment of a trauma patient involves a primary survey using the ABCDE approach to identify life-threatening injuries. For the described trauma scenario, the initial steps would be:
1) Assess the airway and give high-flow oxygen. The patient's ability to speak suggests his airway is not compromised.
2) Evaluate breathing and circulation. His breathing is compromised as shown by the low respiratory rate and high pulse.
3) Expose the patient fully to identify injuries and monitor for hypothermia. The abrasion on his chest indicates potential internal injuries.
4) Begin resuscitation with IV fluids and monitor vitals closely given his unstable condition from potential internal bleeding and shock.

This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.

31. BREATHINGB
▪ Airway patency alone does not ensure adequate
ventilation. Adequate gas exchange is required to
maximize oxygenation and carbon dioxide
elimination
▪ Every injured patient should receive supplemental
oxygen. If the patient is not intubated, oxygen
should be delivered by a mask-reservoir device to
achieve optimal oxygenation

European and American military studies demonstrate
improved survival when tranexamic acid is administered
within 3 hours of injury.When bolused in the field follow
up infusion is given over 8 hours in the hospital
61. ▪ Hemorrhage is the predominant cause of
preventable deaths after injury.
▪ Tachycardia in a cold patient indicates shock
▪ Causes of shock following injury:
▪ Hypovolemic
▪ Cardiogenic
▪ Neurogenic
▪ Septic
62.
63. Aggressive and continued volume resuscitation is not a substitute for definitive
control of hemorrhage.
Shock associated with injury is most often hypovolemic in origin.
In such cases, initiate IV fluid therapy with crystalloids.All IV solutions should be warmed
either by storage in a warm environment (i.e., 37°C to 40°C, or 98.6°F to 104°F) or
administered through fluid warming devices.
A bolus of 1 L of an isotonic solution may be required to achieve
an appropriate response in an adult patient.
If a patient is unresponsive to initial crystalloid therapy, he or she
should receive a blood transfusion

75. Hypothermia can be present when
the patient arrives, or it may develop
quickly in the ED if the patient is
uncovered and undergoes rapid
administration of room-temperature
fluids or refrigerated blood.
Because hypothermia is a potentially
lethal complication in injured
patients, tak aggressive measures to
prevent the loss of body heat and
restore body temperature to normal
pearls
79. Physiologic parameters for adequcy of resuscitation
such as pulse rate, blood
pressure, pulse pressure,
ventilatory rate, ABG levels,
body temperature, and
urinary output are assessable
measures that reflect the
adequacy of resuscitation
80.
81. CONSIDER EARLY PATIENT TRANSFER
➢Do not delay transfer for
diagnostic tests
➢Use time before transfer for
resuscitation
82.
83. The secondary survey does not
begin until the primary survey
(ABCDE) is completed, resuscitative
efforts are under way, and
improvement of the patient’s vital
functions has been demonstrated
Secondary Survey
94. ▪ The finding of active arterial bleeding, an
expanding hematoma, arterial bruit, or
airway compromise usually requires
operative evaluation.
▪ Unexplained or isolated paralysis of an upper
extremity should raise the suspicion of a
cervical nerve root injury and should be
accurately documented.
102. PELVIS
➢ Pelvic fractures can be suspected by the
identification
▪ of ecchymosis over the iliac wings, pubis, labia, or
▪ scrotum.
➢ Clinical assessment of stability
▪ X-ray
▪ stabilize pelvis with fixator/clamps –pelvic
binder
▪ urethral injury is suspected when
high up prostate in PR
▪ blood in meatus
▪ perineal haematoma
104. Perineum, Rectum, andVagina
▪ The perineum should be examined for contusions,
hematomas, lacerations, and urethral bleeding.
▪ A rectal examination may be performed to assess for
the presence of blood within the bowel lumen,
integrity of the rectal wall, and quality of sphincter
tone.
▪ Vaginal examination should be performed in patients
who are at risk of vaginal injury. The clinician should
assess for the presence of blood in the vaginal vault
and vaginal lacerations. In addition, pregnancy tests
should be performed on all females of childbearing
age.
109. diagnostic tests may be performed during the
secondary survey to identify specific
x-ray examinations of the spine and extremities
CT scans of the head, chest, abdomen, and spine
contrast urography and angiography
transesophageal ultrasound;
bronchoscopy
esophagoscopy; and other diagnostic procedures
ADJUCANTS
110. Reevaluation
Trauma patients must be reevaluated constantly to ensure that new
findings are not overlooked and to discover any deterioration in
previously noted findings.
Continuous monitoring of vital signs, oxygen saturation, and urinary
output is essential. For adult patients, maintenance of urinary
output at 0.5 mL/kg/h is desirable. In pediatric patients who are
older than 1 year, an output of 1 mL/kg/h is typically adequate.
PeriodicABG analyses and end-tidalCO2 monitoring are useful in
some patients.
111. Definitive care
▪ Whenever the patient’s treatment needs exceed
the capability of the receiving institution, transfer
is considered.
▪ This decision requires a detailed assessment of the
patient’s injuries and knowledge of the capabilities
of the institution, including equipment, resources,
and personnel.
112. Forensic Evidence
▪ If criminal activity is suspected in conjunction with
a patient’s injury, the personnel caring for the
patient must preserve the evidence.
▪ All items, such as clothing and bullets, are saved
for law enforcement personnel.
▪ Laborator determinations of blood alcohol
concentrations and other drugs may be
particularly pertinent and have substantial legal
implications.
115. Work up of any case of trauma:
LAB
▪ 1-cbc
▪ 2-blood chemistry (renal-liver-cardiac-electrolyte)
▪ 3-coagulation profile
▪ 4- Blood group, cross matching if multiple trauma
