Acomplete patient assessment includes all of the following except: select one: a. scene size-up. b. confirming diagnosis. c. primary assessment. d. secondary assessment.

D. Secondary Assessment. This is used to find details not apparent in the primary assessment, which is what this is.

Your answer should be B. (As an EMT/Paramedic) It is not within your scope of practice to diagnose anyone, nor can a diagnosis be made with what we have on scene. Any type of assessment either Trauma or Medical Assessment, is all about sizing up the scene for dangers, triage, etc... we then begin the primary assessment to gather any life threats. Secondary assessment tools are used in trauma as a full body search for any injuries that aren't life threats, in medical you use medical assessment tools to gather a general suspicion.
