THE SECONDARY
SURVEY
SECONDARY SURVEY
A. Circumstances of Injury
cause
of burn
did injury occur in a closed space?
is there a possibility of smoke inhalation?
were chemicals involved?
was there related trauma?
B. Medical History
A - Allergies
M - Medications/Tetanus Immunization
P - Previous Illness/Past Medical History

REFERRAL CRITERIA

TRANSPORTATION
2 Phases
Initial
transport
Secondary
transport
INITIAL TRANSPORT
minimize contamination
baseline vital signs should be obtained
if far - IV line should be secured and electrolyte
solution started
O2 should be administered to all patients with
flame burns
cardiac monitoring should be done to all
electrical injury patients due to dysrrhythmias
avoid too rapid cooling -- dysrrhythmias
SECONDARY TRANSPORT
and
experienced nurse or a
paramedic trained in advanced life support
techniques
NUTRITION
EARLY FEEDING
Maintenance
