What else can I help you with?
A victim's level of responsiveness or mental status can be described according to the scale?
AVPU scale stands for alert, verbal, pain, unresponsive
When describing a patient level of consciousness using the AVPU scale V representig what?
The "V" in the AVPU scale stands for "verbal." This level indicates that the patient is responsive and can communicate verbally, but may not be fully alert or oriented. They may respond to external stimuli with speech.
How do you check for a response from the casualty?
You can tap, shout, and pinch. Remember the AVPU scale; Alert, responds to Verbal stimuli, responds to Pain stimuli; and Unresponsive.
What is the mnemonic AVPU used to evaluate?
The AVPU is used to remember responses during assessment of a patients mental status.
What are the three levels of consciouness that you need to be aware of when giving first aid and how can they be identified?
In emergency outdoor care, we use the AVPU (pronounced ave poo) scale of consciousness: A - Alert V - Responds to verbal stimuli P - Responds to pain stimuli U - Unresponsive
What does ampu mean in first aid?
AVPU is level of consciousness; a is alert, v is responds to verbal stimulus, p is responds to pain stimulus; and u is unresponsive.
What does AVPU mean in first aid?
AVPU refers to a patient's Level of Consciousness (or LOC) A - Alert - the patient is alert, able to communicate and responsive V - Verbal - the patient only responds to you when you speak to them P - Pain - The patient only responds when you apply a painful stimulus (such as pinching the trapezius muscle) U - No response at all. The patient is unconscious (or dead)
What does 19 centimeters by 17 centimeters by 12 centimeters look like?
A triangle. Probably not ! Use a metric rule and draw this figure to scale to visualize its shape and size.<p></p><p> </p> Normally, the 3 dimensions represent length, width and height.
In the equation p equals mxv what does the p represent?
P= Momentum
What does scale represent?
a bar that tells you how lng
What do centimeters represent?
Centimeters, from the metric scale.
How do you calculate magnitude and direction of a resultant vector by parallelogram law?
To find the resultant of 2 vectors, P and Q, let the ray AB represent the vector P. Let AB (not BA) be in the direction of P and let the length of AB represent the magnitude of P. Let BC represent the direction of Q and the length BC represent the magnitude of Q [on the same scale used for P and AB]. Then the straight line AC, which is the diagonal of the parallelogram with sides representing P and Q, is the resultant vector R, with magnitude and direction represented by AC.The vectors P and Q can also be represented as sides AB and AC. In that case you will need to complete the parallelogram and the resultant is represented by the diagonal through A.
