Assessment skills play a decisive role in setting priorities for nursing care.
The ABCDE approach is a systematic approach to primary assessment and endorsed by the Australian Resuscitation Council, as the gold standard for assessing and treating the deteriorating patient. It can assist nurses in identifying and responding to patients presenting with life threatening conditions.
Within this module you will find resources to guide the ABCDE assessment of a critically ill patient and subsequent nursing interventions.

ABCDE assessment - a quick overview
A quick overview of the ABCDE assessment, i.e. primary medical assessment for advanced life support. Being confronted with an acutely ill patient can be stressful. By going through your ABC's you'll have a structure that will help you help the patient. I'd advise any doctor to take an official course, it will make you more confident, and it's also a lot of fun.
In airway, please check C-spine and stabilise the neck if necessary.

History Taking – Revisited
From the moment we start interacting with patients as medical students, we are always taught that a good history and physical is of paramount importance to clinch a diagnosis.

History Taking
Taking a history from a patient is a skill necessary for examinations and afterwards as a practicing doctor, no matter which area you specialise in.

History Taking & Examination
The content of the history required in primary care consultations is very variable and will depend on the presenting symptoms, patient concerns and the past medical, psychological and social history.
