The initial care provided to polytrauma patients in emergency services poses a significant health issue due to the high mortality rate and adverse effects resulting from inadequate initial management caused by the limited knowledge of healthcare staff. Consequently, a study titled “Nursing Criteria to Consider for Initial Care of Polytrauma Patients in an Emergency Service“ was undertaken to pinpoint the essential criteria that nurses should possess while attending to polytrauma patients in emergency services. Evidence-Based Nursing (EBN) was the methodology employed in this secondary study, involving the selection of 8 scientific research studies related to the subject and using databases such as Scielo, Cochrane, PubMed, Google Scholar, with rigorous application of the utility and apparent validity guide by Gálvez Toro. A study called “Clinical Practice Guidelines: Emergency Care for Polytrauma Patients“ was chosen for critical evaluation, indicating an evidence level of 3 and a recommendation grade A according to GRADE, thereby validating its utility in decision-making. The review ultimately addresses the clinical query: What nursing criteria should be taken into account for the initial care of polytrauma patients in an emergency service? It proposes that a standardized initial care process, commencing with prompt identification of signs and symptoms during a comprehensive physical examination utilizing the ABCDE approach, could reduce complications and their repercussions, notably enhancing clinical outcomes and shortening hospital stays.
