Chest Trauma
Second leading cause of trauma deaths after head injury About 20% of all trauma deaths
Anatomy
Penetrating
Blunt
the forces are distributed over a larger area occur from compression or shearing force
Assessment
Shortness of breath
Tachypnea
Chest pain
LOOK : bruises, lacerations, distended neck veins,tracheal deviation, open chest wounds, lack of symmetrical chest rise, paradoxical chest movement, cyanosis
.
FEEL : tenderness, bony crepitus, subcutaneous emphysema and an unstable chest wall segment LISTEN : presence or absence of breath sounds, and bilateral symmetry of air movement

Chest Trauma
Rib Fracture
Most common chest injury More common in adults than children Especially common in elderly Ribs form rings
Rib Fracture
Rib Fracture
Fractures of 1st, 2nd ribs require high force Frequently have injury to aorta or bronchi 30% will die
10
Rib Fracture
Fractures of 8th to 12th ribs can damage underlying abdominal solid organs: Liver Spleen Kidneys
11
Rib Fracture
12
Rib Fracture
Management
Oxygenation, if necessary Encourage patient to breath deeply
13
Flail Chest
Two or more adjacent ribs broken in two or more places Produces freefree-floating chest wall segment Usually secondary to blunt trauma More common in older patients
14
Flail Chest
Paradoxical movement May NOT be present initially due to intercostal muscle spasms Be suspicious in any patient with chest wall: Tenderness Crepitus
15
Flail Chest
Consequences
Pain, leading to decreased ventilation Increased work of breathing Contusion of lung
16
Flail Chest
Management
Establish airway Suspect spinal injuries Oxygenation
17
Simple Pneumothorax
Air in pleural space Partial or complete lung collapse occurs
18
Simple Pneumothorax
Causes
Chest wall penetration Fractured rib lacerating lung Paper bag effect May occur spontaneously following: Exertion Coughing Air Travel
19
Simple Pneumothorax
Severity of symptoms depends on size of pneumothorax, speed of lung collapse, and patients health status
20
Simple Pneumothorax
Management
Establish airway Suspect spinal injury based on mechanism High concentration O2 Monitor for tension pneumothorax
21
Open Pneumothorax
Hole in chest wall Allows air to enter pleural space Larger hole = Greater chance air will enter there than through trachea
22
23
Open Pneumothorax
Management
Close hole with occlusive dressing High concentration O2 Assist ventilations Consider transport on injured side Monitor for tension pneumothorax
24
Tension Pneumothorax
Onene-way valve forms in lung or chest wall Air enters pleural space; cannot leave Air is trapped in pleural space Pressure rises Pressure collapses lung
25
Tension Pneumothorax
Trapped air pushes heart, lungs away from injured side Vena cavae become kinked Blood cannot return to heart Cardiac output falls
26
Tension Pneumothorax
Extreme dyspnea Restlessness, anxiety, agitation Decreased breath sounds Hyperresonance to percussion Cyanosis Subcutaneous emphysema
27
Tension Pneumothorax
Tension Pneumothorax
Management
Secure airway High concentration O2 If available, request ALS intercept for pleural decompression
29
Hemothorax
Blood in pleural space Most common result of major chest wall trauma Present in 70 to 80% of penetrating, major nonnonpenetrating chest trauma
30
Hemothorax
Rapid, weak pulse Cool, clammy skin Restlessness, anxiety Thirst Chills Hypotension Collapsed neck veins
31
Hemothorax
Hemothorax
Management
Secure airway Assist breathing with high concentration O2 Rapid transport
33
Traumatic Asphyxia
34
Traumatic Asphyxia
Possible sternal fracture or central flail chest Shock PurplishPurplish -red discoloration of: Head Neck Shoulders Blood shot, protruding eyes Swollen, cyanotic lips
35
Traumatic Asphyxia
Name given because patients looked like they had been strangled or hanged
36
Traumatic Asphyxia
Management
Airway with CC-spine control Assist ventilations with high concentration O2 Spinal stabilization Rapid transport
37
Cardiovascular Trauma
Any patient with significant blunt or penetrating trauma to chest has heart/great vessel injury until proven otherwise
38
Myocardial Contusion
Bruise of heart muscle Most common blunt cardiac injury Usually due to steering wheel impact
39
Myocardial Contusion
40
Myocardial Contusion
Myocardial Contusion
Management
High concentration O2 Transport Consider ALS intercept
42
Cardiac Tamponade
Rapid accumulation of blood in space between heart, pericardium Heart compressed Blood entering heart decreases Cardiac output falls
43
Cardiac Tamponade
44
Cardiac Tamponade
Becks Triad
45
Cardiac Tamponade
46
Cardiac Tamponade
Management
Secure airway High concentration O2 Rapid transport Definitive treatment is pericardiocentesis followed by surgery
47
48
Rupture usually occurs just beyond left subclavian artery Attachment of aorta to pulmonary artery at this point produces shearing force on aortic arch
49
Management
High concentration oxygen Assist ventilation Suspect spinal injury Rapid transport
51
Diaphragm forms dome that extends up into rib cage Trauma to chest below 4th rib = Abdominal injury until proven otherwise
