Thoracic injury is common in the polytrauma patient and can pose life-threatening problems if not promptly identified and treated during the primary surveyhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😬" title="Grimasse schneidendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Grimasse schneidendes Gesicht">.
These patients can usually
be treated or their conditions temporarily relieved by relatively simple measures, such as
intubation, ventilation, tube thoracostomy, and fluid resuscitationhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👏🏽" title="Applaus-Zeichen (mittlerer Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Applaus-Zeichen (mittlerer Hautton)">.

Diagnosis :
(FAST) is a rapid and accurate method of imaging the heart and pericardium that can effectively identify cardiac tamponade.
(FAST) is a rapid and accurate method of imaging the heart and pericardium that can effectively identify cardiac tamponade.
Management :
1- ABCDE
2- emergency thoracotomy or sternotomy
3- Administration of intravenous fluid
If surgical intervention is not possible, pericardiocentesis can be therapeutic, but it does not constitute definitive treatment for cardiac tamponadehttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✨" title="Funken" aria-label="Emoji: Funken">
