Damage control surgery in children
Injury.
2004 Jul.
Abstract
Whilst the principles of damage control are the same in paediatric surgery as in adults the unique qualities of children must be appreciated. Children are more susceptible to hypothermia and multiple trauma. Technical aspects of the damage control laparotomy specific to children are outlined. Lessons learnt from damage control in neonatal surgery are transferable to paediatric trauma.
