Emergency stabilization of unstable pelvic fractures
Emerg Med Serv.

Abstract
Pelvic ring fractures resulting from high-energy and/or mass mechanisms can cause life-threatening severe bleeding, however, devices can be applied by EMS at the emergency scene to help slow or reduce that possibility. Circumferential compression is an effective and safe method to stabilize open book pelvic fractures.
