    Default Twelve flaps

    OK, so you know it and it’s so old, then go and read Valley of Death some scary stuff going on there

    Otherwise:

    As part of your ABC

    TWELVE FLAPS is the acronym for “B” to check the neck and chest wall


    T Trachea, central, if not tension pneumothrax, late sign needs treated
    W Wounds, check for
    E Emphysema, surgical, air under skin and feels crackly, pneumothorax
    L Laryngeal crepitus, check for damage to the larynx
    V Veins, check for extended neck veins, pneumothorax or cardiac tamponade
    E Every time, recheck on every cycle

    F Feel the chest wall
    L Look, examine the chest wall for signs of injury.
    A Auscultate, listen for air entry, should be equal L=R
    P Palpate, tap for signs dullness or resonation.
    S Check sides and back


    OK so you know it, but somebody may not.

    With respect NeuralNet, you're repeating other threads on the same subjects.

    Just done a course by any chance?

    My final, deepest and unreservable apology for being so boring.

    Bye

    Hopefully, there are members out there who have just done a course, read an article, found a new guidance and they won't be put off by comments.

    Post and be dammed.

    The forum, casualties, patients, and even the individuals with comments will benefit.

    Nobody knows it all, so from first aid to advanced whatever, keep me and the medic forum current.

    Thanks
