Abstract

Systematic evaluation and re-evaluation of the patient following the ABCDE principles will diminish the risk of overlooking injuries in the patient. Primary focus in the first 5 min is to discover the most critical injuries. The secondary survey is more thorough and will reveal the injuries causing problems later.
