Diagnostic Testing Logic

Boat Crash Field Response: A real ER team would triage acuity, stabilize immediate threats, verify history, perform targeted exam and tests, involve senior clinicians, document decisions, communicate risks, and reassess. The available evidence does not support adding unshown vital signs, lab values, medication doses, imaging findings, timestamps, or definitive outcomes.
