The passage explains that initial assessment in the critical care unit ----.
Patients are admitted to critical care units from a variety
of settings, including the emergency department,
medical or surgical service, or operating room. Most
critical care patients are acutely and severely ill,
commonly with dysfunction or failure of more than one
organ system. The initial assessment must be rapid and
focus on real or potentially life-threatening processes
that require immediate intervention. An example is the
resuscitation of a patient with cardiopulmonary arrest.
The pace of resuscitation is necessarily quick; physical
examination may be restricted initially to the central
nervous, cardiovascular, and respiratory systems, and
interventions may be limited to the essential ABCs of
airway, breathing, and circulation. Later, continuous
electrocardiographic monitoring, measurement of blood
pressure, and other standard procedures should start. In
general, management of the critically ill patient should
be based on an understanding of physiology and
pathophysiology. Indeed, although the contributions of
cell and molecular biology to critical care medicine are
substantial, the critical care unit more resembles a
physiology laboratory, since the effects of its
interventions can be directly observed.
