Trauma Surgery

Trauma surgery is the branch of surgical medicine that deals with treating injuries caused by an impact. For example, a trauma surgeon may be called to the emergency room to evaluate a patient who is a victim of a car crash. Trauma surgery is a surgical specialty that utilizes both operative and non-operative management to treat traumatic injuries, typically in an acute setting. Trauma surgeons generally complete residency training in General Surgery and often fellowship training in trauma or surgical critical care. For example, traumatic injuries may include victims of car accidents, physical assaults, and falls. Trauma surgeons will treat patients with a large variety of injuries including fractures, cuts, internal injuries, shock, and burns. In the case of severe trauma, such as a catastrophic car crash, the trauma surgeon may be one part of a surgical team that includes general surgeons (to repair internal abdominal injuries), vascular surgeons (to repair damage to blood vessels), orthopaedic surgeons (to repair broken bones), and other surgeons as needed. The trauma team will include not only one or more surgeons, but also the paramedics who stabilize and transport the patient, nurses, anaesthetist, respiratory therapist, radiographer, and the support of the medical laboratory scientists, including the blood bank
