priortization question

Published

As far as the questions I've been doing from various book for nclex, it seems like whenever I come across a priorty question in which your suppose to use ABC or maslow rule, the answer always ends up to be something to do with the airway. Jus for my reference when i take the nclex and there is no airway choice I know I go to breathing or circulation, but can someone give me a example of what I should look for in regards to those questions.. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Specializes in ER, M/S, LTAC.

Maslows = 1st level = Physiologic = ABC

AIRWAY = Hypoxic, Hypoxemic = DEATH

BREATHING = same as above but need to establish airway first in order to breath

CIRCULATION = 0 circulation = 0 RBC (hgb-O2 carrying) = poor perfusion ischemia = DEATH

Choose the killer answer

Good Luck!
