Ok.. so I'm posting this as a learning lesson for myself. I'm interested in YOUR responses.
The incident involved is a freeway speed MVA, major front end damage to the rear car, I believe it was a Toyota, two door sports car type. Young male driver, mid 20's. No seat belt and the air bag failed to deploy.
Upon arriving at the scene, the driver of the vehicle initially was unconscious but breathing, aroused to noise. He unlocked the door. At that point I opened the door and told him to not move anything any further. Having no rescue equipment, and having just called 911, what would you suggest from this point on?
My inital assessment of this gentleman... rapid shallow respiration rate, complaint of "not being able to breath", positive jugular distention, equal radial pulses bilaterally, under 100 beats per minute, positive tenderness to mild pressure to the abdomen, positive cervical neck tenderness.
