THE FIRST CRITICAL HOUR IN TRAUMA CARE


TRAUMA
strikes down its many victims
swiftly and indiscriminately.
In that first critical hour after
someone has been severely injured,
providers must act
with speed, knowledge and skill.

Course Objectives


  • Assess the patient’s condition rapidly and accurately.
  • Resuscitate and stabilize the patient on a priority basis.
  • Determine if the patient’s needs
    will likely exceed a facility’s capabilities.
  • Arrange for the patient’s inter-hospital transfer.
  • Assure that optimum care is
    provided each step of the way.
