What are the Common Challenges in Conducting a Primary Survey?
Some challenges that nurses may face include:
- Limited Time: Emergencies require rapid assessment and intervention, which can be stressful. - Multiple Injuries: Patients with multiple injuries may have competing priorities that need to be balanced. - Environmental Factors: Conditions like poor lighting, noise, or weather can impede accurate assessment. - Patient Cooperation: Unconscious or uncooperative patients can make assessment more difficult.
