After your Focused physical (minor trauma) assessment you must get this?

• A. S/SAMPLE
• B. BELLSRP GO
• C. S/SAMPLE BELLSRP GO
• D. VITALS

Answer: (A)

In a focused physical assessment for minor trauma, you gather essential patient history using the S/SAMPLE framework while noting what you observe as signs and symptoms. This approach gives you a complete picture: what the patient feels and reports (symptoms), what you can observe or measure (signs), plus critical background information—Allergies, Medications, Past medical history, Last oral intake, and Events leading up to the incident. This history helps you interpret findings, identify potential contraindications or complications, and guide treatment and transport decisions. Vital signs are important, but the S/SAMPLE history provides the necessary context to understand the overall condition and tailor care.
