The nervous system coordinates and regulates all bodily functions, from basic physiological processes to complex behaviors and cognition. The presence of focal neurologic findings or mental status changes following a traumatic event is predictive of complications, some of which may be long-term or even fatal. Thus, quick identification of the neurological impact of physical trauma is essential to diagnostic and management decisions. A systematic approach can help ensure thoroughness while attempting to complete the neurologic examination expeditiously.This activity for healthcare professionals is designed to enhance learners’ competence in performing a neurological examination in patients with physical trauma. Valuable insights will be gained that will equip learners to collaborate effectively with an interprofessional team caring for affected individuals.
