You are treating an unresponsive patient injured when his garage heater exploded. The patient has been extricated from the debris and is in decompensated shock. Why is it important to perform your assessment, treatment, and transport to an appropriate facility in the shortest amount of time possible?
◦ It gives you less opportunity to make mistakes in the patient's care.
◦ There is nothing you can do for a patient in shock.
◦ Trauma patients may require surgery to repair internal bleeding.
◦ Trauma centers have drugs that can stop internal bleeding that aren't available to field crews.
