Motor vehicle crashes (MVCs) are a leading cause of death and injury in the United States. 1 Improvements to road infrastructure, vehicle design, and traffic safety legislation have led to a decrease in crash mortality from 15.9 per 100 000 person-years in 1995 to 10.9 per 100 000 person-years in 2015. 2 The implementation of organized trauma ...
23 Μαΐ 2020 · Shock from medical and traumatic conditions can result in organ injury and death. Limited data describe out‐of‐hospital treatment of shock. We sought to characterize adult out‐of‐hospital shock care in a national emergency medical services (EMS) cohort.
Shock in patients resuscitated after out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is associated with an increased risk of mortality. We sought to determine the associations between lactate level, mean arterial pressure (MAP), and vasopressor/inotrope doses with mortality.
Patients whose injuries are serious but not immediately fatal benefit the most from treatment in designated trauma centers, hospitals that have special staffing and protocols to provide immediate care to critically injured patients.
29 Απρ 2024 · Nonhemorrhagic causes of shock — In adult trauma patients, nonhemorrhagic causes of shock include tension pneumothorax and cardiac tamponade. These injuries are best detected by physical examination or ultrasound assessment (ie, FAST).
Primary injury prevention remains a cornerstone component of the modern trauma system at all levels. In response to reports of growing motor vehicle accident mortality, the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 1966 established comprehensive motor vehicle standards and safety goals.
Arterial injury shock will lead to a very rapid and profound hemodynamic decompensation, often resulting in cardiac arrest within minutes of injury, unless early prehospital vascular control can be achieved.
