Medical Pharmacology: General Anesthesia Clinical Case Questions
A 25 year-old woman was admitted in profound shock following a motor vehicle accident.
On arrival at the emergency room she was wearing mast trousers and had an auscultatory blood-pressure of 60/40.
An IV was immediately started in the right jugular vein. Abdominal paracentesis revealed gross blood, indicating rupture of one or more abdominal viscera.
An immediate laparotomy was obviously indicated.
