5 General Guidelines General Scoring Guidelines Extra points if candidate asks whether the patient s husband is present and updates him regarding status of patient. Score up if quickly recognizing pathology and performing correct diagnostics / management steps (DA, PS, PM) Score down if requiring prompts or seems unsure of diagnostics / management (DA, PS, PM) Score down if diagnostics / management steps are excessively delayed (DA, PM, PS) General Play of Case Guidelines Patient presents hypotensive and tachycardic. Minimal history is obtained from EMS if requested. The patient should be intubated during the primary survey because of a low GCS and should subsequently be diagnosed with a tension pneumothorax (was a simple PTX until PPV, then became a tension PTX) which should also be addressed during the primary survey. Resuscitation with IV fluids, then blood products should be initiated as well. Each of these interventions will result in small, transient improvements in vital signs. Time should be allowed afterwards for performance of a secondary survey with the above critical actions. If resident is able to evaluate fetus before cardiac arrest, they will see + fetal cardiac activity on ultrasound or fetal Doppler. After this, patient will decompensate and suffer cardiac arrest requiring performance of perimortem c-section. When the infant (wellappearing) is delivered (and handed off to NICU team), patient obtains ROSC and trauma surgery/ob arrive to transfer patient to the operating room American Board of Emergency Medicine 5 of 5
