Slide 33-

ANY UNCONSCIOUS ATHLETE MUST BE TREATED AS A POTENTIAL SPINAL CORD INJURY!!!
Slide 34-

Athlete unconscious. Athlete conscious with loss of movement or sensation. Complains of central neck pain.
Slide 35-

FIELD MONITORING Re-check vitals. Reassure athlete. Observe for Shock. Be prepared to treat for shock.
Slide 36-

SHOCK Collapse of the c.v. system, or failure of the system to provide an adequate blood supply to all body tissues.
Slide 37-

CAUSES OF SHOCK Blood vessels dilated so widely that there is a poor venous return. There is loss of blood. Heart fails to circulate the blood properly.
Slide 38-

TYPES AND CAUSE OF SHOCK Hemorrhagic – Internal and/or External Bleeding Respiratory – reduce O2 in blood. (sucking wound, airway obstruction, spinal cord injury).
Slide 39-

Neurogenic – loss of control by the nervous system. Psychogenic – reaction of nervous system to fear, bad news etc. Cardiogenic – inadequate function of the heart
Slide 40-

Septic – severe infection resulting in vasodilation. Metabolic – loss of fluids through diarrhea, or urination. Anaphylactic – caused by allergic reactions. Extreme emergency.
Slide 41-

SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS Eyes dull, lackluster Pupils dilated Face pale Shallow, irregular respirations Pulse rapid and weak 2
Slide 42-

… 2 Skin cool and clammy May have nausea, fainting, anxiety, thirst Blood pressure is low
Slide 43-

TREATMENT FOR SHOCK Control bleeding. Elevate lower extremities if no chest or head injury. Prevent loss of body heat. Lie athlete down. N.P.O.
Slide 44-

Primary Survey Initial scan done by the ‘at head’ person. Feeling for deformity etc. Secondary Survey Someone else holds head and you check lower ext.
Slide 45-

Initial Questions What happen? Pain? Present or after accident. Feelings: burning/tingling Head pain/ache?
Slide 46-

Orientation to time and place. Observations of pupils. Observe for any CSF or blood coming from nose or ears. Look for bruising.
Slide 47-

Test motor and sensory of upper extremity. Do gross motor of feet. Test grip strength of the upper extremity. Continue to ask about headache and nausea.
Slide 48-

Removal from Field Supine lying. Sitting. Four Point Kneeling. Three Point Kneeling. Standing (with support). Slowly walk to sideling. Sideline Testing.
Slide 49-

SIDE LINE TESTING Subjective Question about their feelings (headache, tingling, nausea) Objective Motor skills, verbal skills

MINOR NECK TRAUMA SIDELINE MANAGEMENT
Slide 58-

Minor Neck Trauma is an injury that has no arm pain, no loss of neck motion and no central pain during movement. The following should be tested……
Slide 59-

General test of the myotomes (specific nerves that innervate specific muscles) to determine if there is gross weakness. If weakness; no return.
Slide 60-

SIDE LIGHT… ‘Motion Talk’ ..ors – muscles doing the movement. ..ion – direction of mov’t. ..ed – end position.
Slide 61-

SHOULDER ELEVATION C3,4 “Lift your shoulders up, hold and do not let me push them down”.
Slide 62-

“ Don’t let me push your arms down”. SHOULDER ABDUCTORS C5
Slide 63-

ELBOW FLEXION C6 “Bend your elbow”
Slide 64-

ELBOW EXTENSION C7 “Straighten your elbow.”
Slide 65-

THUMB EXTENSORS C8 “ Do not let me pull your thumb down”.
Slide 66-

FINGER ABD/ADDUCTORS T1 “Do not let me push your fingers together”.
Slide 67-

If the neck motion is good, there is no neck/arm pain and the strength in the extremities is good, it is decision time!
Slide 68-

If in doubt, don’t! If the tests are good and you tested long and often enough, then do! RETURN
