Caught in the crossfire: children, guns, and trauma
Crit Care Nurs Clin North Am.
1994 Sep.
Abstract
Violence, especially that related to the use of firearms, has become a leading cause of death in children in the United States. Providing physical and psychosocial care for the child with a gunshot wound is a nursing challenge. Nurses can and must play a major role in helping to prevent this public health problem.
