TRAUMA DEATH
Death from Trauma follows a
Trimodal Distribution.
- ( Trunkey DD : Sci Am 249:28-35 1983 )
Causes:
A. Subdural Extradural Haematoma
B. Haemopneumothorax
C. Ruptured spleen
D. Lacerations of the liver
E. Pelvic Fractures
F. Multiple Injuries Associated with Significant
Blood Loss.
G. Preventable salvageable condition
Sepsis
Organ Failure
DIVC
ARDS
Fat Embolism
Associated complications:
1. Result of direct insult to specific organ
system.
2. In relation to interventional procedures.
3. In relation to poor initial resuscitation and
stabilization delay in initial investigation
TRAUMA DEATH
More than 35 % of total SURGICAL ADMISSIONS
are TRAUMA PATIENTS.
More than 55 % of Death in SURGICAL
DISCIPLINE is due to TRAUMA.
82 % of Trauma Death is due to HEAD INJURY.
10 % of Trauma Death is due to POLYTRAUMA.

PRIMARY SURVEY:
Definition:
The preliminary assessment of a patient which is
conducted in a systematic manner with the objective
of identifying life threatening conditions and
managing them as soon as they are found.

TRAUMA TEAM
Definition:
* A group of skillful and experience
personnel's work together at the same
time managing a polytrauma patient by
rapid, efficient and effective team
(multidiscipline).
* The team include all level personnel
from specialist to attendants.
TRAUMA TEAM
Many studies in developing countries
have shown that > 30% of total hospital
death is due to trauma.
A well integrated trauma system based
upon TEAMWORK and PARTNERING can
reduce the mortality rate to less than
10%.
TRAUMA TEAM
* Match patient need with resource
utilisation
* Ensure early senior clinician
involvement in decision making
* Provide a coordinated approach to
early trauma care
* Minimize delay in the Emergency
department

CONCLUSIONS
1. Smooth & efficient management of trauma victim.
2. Preserve the principles of Trauma Team despite varying
resources, manpower & infrastructure.
3. Change of attitude towards Trauma Care & Inculcate spirit
of team-work..
5. Upgrade knowledge & skill in Modern Concept of
Trauma Care.
6. Importance of integrated Trauma System.
7. Reduce morbidity and mortality.
LEADERSHIP
Leadership is lifting a persons vision
to higher sights, the raising of person
performance to higher standard, the
building of a persons personality
beyond its normal limitations
