Emergency Department SBAR Practice — Intermediate

Emergency handoffs — chest pain, stroke alerts, trauma, anaphylaxis, sepsis screens. Fast triage-to-action framing, undifferentiated presentations, and the exact number your ED attending is going to ask you for.

What intermediate means here

Two or three competing concerns, subtle trend changes, and the need to prioritize what to say first. Right for late-program students and new-grad orientation.

Your job in the call: Sort what matters now from what matters next. Lead with the safety issue; keep the background tight.

Example ED scenarios you'll practice

  • Mid-50s male with 30 minutes of substernal chest pain and diaphoresis
  • Stroke alert with left-sided weakness, last-known-well 90 minutes ago
  • Bee sting with a spreading rash and new stridor
