Bring intensive care to the child — rural retrieval of a deteriorating child

Station status

This is one MedVellum formative structured clinical encounter. The scoring, prompts and performance descriptions are educational feedback tools. They are not an official college station, timing, mark allocation, pass score or reproduced examination format. The encounter assesses first-impression recognition, the stay-and-stabilise retrieval principle, a pre-transport stabilisation checklist, management of the physics of altitude vibration and cold, the choice of mode and escort, communication, a rehearsed contingency, and a structured handover. ^{[1] [4]}
