評估疑似脊椎損傷病患時,哪項介入最重要?
Which intervention is most important when assessing a client with a suspected spinal cord injury?
- AAssessing level of consciousness評估意識水準
- BAdministering IV fluids給予靜脈輸液
- CImmobilization of the spine✓ 正解脊椎固定

對於脊椎損傷,預防二次傷害是首要目標。脊椎固定 (Immobilization) 可以防止骨折碎片繼續壓迫脊髓,導致永久性神經受損。其他選項(補液、評估神經與心律)必須在頸圈固定與脊椎穩定後才能執行,以確保安全。
Spinal immobilization is the priority intervention to prevent further neurological damage from potential spinal instability. While assessing consciousness, administering fluids, and monitoring heart rate are important, they must follow stabilization to ensure patient safety.
✦ 台美臨床差異
美國 EMS 到院前就會落實 C-collar 固定,台灣在到院後也會持續執行,兩地皆強調脊椎保護。
