Symptoms include pain, which usually worsens with breathing if the chest wall is injured, and sometimes shortness of breath. Common findings include chest tenderness, ecchymoses, and respiratory distress; hypotension or shock may be present.
The injuries to be identified and treated in the thoracic region during the primary survey are:Airway obstruction.Tension pneumothorax.Open pneumothorax.Flail chest and pulmonary contusion.Massive hemothorax.Cardiac tamponade.
Chest trauma can be penetrating or blunt. If the injury pokes through the skin (stabbing, gunshot wound, an arrow through the heart, etc.) we call it penetrating chest trauma. If a sharp object tearing deep into skin and muscle isn't the main cause of tissue damage, consider it blunt chest trauma.
General Appearance and Vital Signs If thoracic and abdominal injuries both present, thoracic injuries are usually more symptomatic and will distract attention from abdominal pain, which is usually less localized and specific. Abdominal pain can be vague and diffuse or localized to a quadrant.
