Remove clothing from around wound 2. Cover wound with sterile dressing soaked with sterile normal saline 3. Cover moistened dressing with sterile occlusive dressing to prevent evaporative drying Impaled Object: Do not remove from patient 1. Prevent from moving by padding around object with bulky trauma dressings 2. Apply direct pressure if moderate to severe hemorrhage is present Treat for shock with positioning, fluids, and maintenance of body temperature Rapid transport to pediatric trauma facility Follow-up: Continually monitors patient for improvement Disposes of contaminated items properly Documents the procedure appropriately Final Grade First Second Third Evaluator Initials Attempt Attempt Attempt Student demonstrates competency.
