This video demonstrates the recognition and immediate management of an acute asthma exacerbation using an ABCDE approach (sometimes referred to as a head-to-toe assessment).
You can read our guide alongside the video here: [ Ссылка ]
The ABCDE approach can be used to systematically assess a critically unwell patient. It involves working through the following steps:
00:00 Introduction
01:06 Airway
01:27 Breathing
05:14 Circulation
07:45 Disability
08:14 Exposure
10:04 Senior review (SBAR)
Each stage of the ABCDE approach involves clinical assessment, investigations and interventions. Problems are addressed as they are identified, and the patient is re-assessed regularly to monitor their response to treatment.
This guide has been created to assist students in preparing for emergency simulation sessions as part of their training; it is not intended to be relied upon for patient care.
