Damage control surgery for the patient who has experienced multiple traumatic injuries
AORN J.
2006 Dec.
Abstract
PATIENTS WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED multiple traumatic injuries present one of the greatest challenges for perioperative teams. IN A TRAUMA PATIENT who is hemorrhaging, increased risk of death arises from a vicious cycle of hypothermia, coagulopathy, and metabolic acidosis known as the triad of death. A STAGED SURGICAL APPROACH predicated on specific priorities for treating multiply injured patients can help save the lives of these patients.
