In the case of a puncture wound, the most appropriate emergency care that Selena would likely perform is rinsing the wound with saline. This helps to clean the wound and reduce the risk of infection. Applying a tourniquet is typically reserved for severe bleeding, administering an opioid antagonist is related to opioid overdoses, and taking nasal swab specimens is not relevant in this scenario.
