Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Maintain the airway. During the resuscitation phase of burn injuries, priority is given to ensuring airway patency to prevent respiratory distress and failure. Burns to the face, chest, and abdomen can lead to airway compromise due to swelling and damage. Maintaining the airway is crucial to ensure adequate oxygenation and ventilation. Pain management (choice
A) is important but not the priority in this phase. Inserting a urinary catheter (choice
C) is not a priority during the resuscitation phase. Initiating fluid resuscitation (choice
D) is important but only after ensuring airway patency.
