I. Pulseless, major vascular injury
First resuscitate pt. - give iv fluids / blood if necessary; if this fails, add drugs to increase BP. Actually follow ABCs of trauma. Once stabilized, proceed with emergent laparotomy.
II. Hemodynamically unstable, solid organ injury with hemorrhage from other sites.
C. Again, reuscitate first, search for the bleeding source next.
III. Hemodynamically normal, hollow viscus injury
A, of course. :lol:
