Anesthesia in the Yom Kippur war

J T Davidson et al. Ann R Coll Surg Engl. 1975 Jun.

Abstract

The role of the anesthetist in the treatment of battle casualties is discussed in the light of personal experience in a field hospital and in the rear during the Yom Kippur War of October 1973. Resuscitation and intensive care both before and after evacuation play an important part in reducing mortality, and the importance of providing adequate facilities for these functions in the battle area as well as at the base is emphasized.
