The statement that is correct regarding the secondary assessment is "you may not have time to perform a secondary assessment if you must continually manage life threats that were identified during the primary assessment". Hence, the correct answer is C.

What is secondary assessment?

The secondary assessment can be defined as a quick and methodical examination of an injured pediatric client from head to toe in order to detect all injuries or of a dangerously ill patient whenever the origin of signs and symptoms is undetermined.

Just after the primary assessment, the secondary assessment will be used. This is where the physician goes through the process from head to toe to determine what happened. Inspection, bone and soft tissue palpation, specific testing, circulation, and neurological evaluation are all possible.
