Example Concept: The ABCs framework helps nurses prioritize care by addressing the most vital physiological functions first. "A" stands for Airway, ensuring it is open and clear to prevent asphyxiation. "B" stands for Breathing, confirming adequate ventilation and oxygenation. "C" stands for Circulation, ensuring effective blood flow and perfusion to vital organs. This hierarchy ensures that life-threatening issues are managed before less critical concerns.
