Question

1 Which four organ systems might be the most severely affected by the victim’s injuries?

The four organ systems that would most likely be affected are the lymphatic, skeletal, respiratory, and urinary systems.

The four organ systems that would most likely be affected are the nervous, skeletal, reproductive, and urinary systems.

The four organ systems that would most likely be affected are the urinary, endocrine, reproductive, and respiratory systems.

The four organ systems that would most likely be affected are the integumentary, muscular, digestive, and cardiovascular systems.

Part B

How are the victim’s injuries affecting his ability to maintain homeostasis and what are the actions taken by the EMTs to combat that disruption?

The massive blood loss is going to have consequences on the ability to maintain adequate blood pressure and body fluid volume. The EMTs are administering IV fluids and trying to slow the bleeding by applying pressure.

The massive blood loss is going to have consequences on the ability to maintain adequate body fluid composition, as the blood loss will impact oxygen transport. The EMTs should provide an oxygen mask and get the patient quickly to the hospital for surgery.

The large blood loss will make it difficult for the victim to maintain adequate temperature; the EMTs should wrap him in heated blankets and administer blood through an IV.

The blood loss would result in an increase in the concentrations of waste products because of diminished excretion and blood transport of waste products. The EMTs started the IV to counteract the rising waste levels by diluting the blood.

Part C

Which abdominal organs are most likely to be injured by this stabbing?

the liver, gall bladder, stomach, and both the large and small intestines

the stomach, spleen, and large and small intestines

the small intestine, bladder, and kidney

the large intestine, kidney, and bladder

Part D

Which major body division and regional areas were affected by the stab wound?

the crural region of the axial division

the abdominal region of the appendicular division

the pelvic region of the axial division

the abdominal region of the axial division

Answer 1

A)The organ systems most commonly affected by injuries are muscular,lymphatic,urinary and respiratory systems

B)the blood loss is going to have an impact on blood pressure and the EMT should administer IV fluids and pressure is applied to reduce bleed.

Otherwise perfusion to brain is impaired and may cause infarction of brain.

Part C) Liver is the most common organ injured in stab injury.t he other organs injured are gall bladder,stomach,large and small intestine.

Part D)the abdominal region of axial division is affected by stab injury
