► Test your medical knowledge with a quick emergency medicine trivia question about patient assessment! In this video, we challenge you to determine what a clinician should conclude when an emergency department patient is speaking in full sentences but presents with facial swelling and increasingly noisy breathing.

🚑 The evaluation begins with the fundamental ABC assessment, which stands for airway, breathing, and circulation.

🗣️ While a patient who is actively speaking indicates a currently patent airway, they are still at risk for future airway obstruction.

⚠️ Clinicians must look closely for immediate danger signs, such as swelling or edema in the face or the pharynx.

🤮 Additional signs of airway compromise include the presence of blood, vomit, or foreign material.

👂 By listening with the naked ear, any audible or noisy breathing must be recognized as obstructed breathing—and the louder it gets, the more concerned you should be!
