Trauma Management Workshop brought to you by CONFLUENCE 2015
Survival of trauma patients is often determined by how quickly they get definitive care so it is crucial that you know how to assess and manage the critical trauma patient in the most efficient way. Skills taught are designed for treating trauma patients such as gun shot wounds, stab wounds, blast wounds and life threatening external bleeding.
Lectures:
Table A: Thoracic Trauma Skills
Needle Decompression: Recognition and needle decompression is a life saving procedure in tension Pneumothorax. Failure to identify and act promptly will lead to cardiac arrest.
Sealing a sucking chest wound: Open chest wound with bubbles emanating is a sign of open Pneumothorax. A special sealing is called for.
Chest Tube Insertion: Definitive treatment of Pneumothorax / hemothorax.
Table B: Vascular Access
Access to the vascular system must be obtained promptly in all trauma patients to maintain circulation
Intraosseous Puncture/Infusion :
This procedure is appropriate for all ages when venous access is impossible because of circulatory collapse or when percutaneous peripheral venous cannulation has failed on two attempts.
Central Line:
A health care provider must be proficient when everything else fails to get venous access central venous Routes (femoral, int. jugular, or subclavian vein)
Table C: Shock &Fluid Resuscitation
Table D: Trauma Assessment Skills
Log Roll Skills (Prone/Supine Victim)
Helmet Removal
Cervical Collar
Spine Board with Head Motion Restrictor
Scoop Stretcher
Assess and manage Life threats simultaneously
Table E: Trauma Radiology
Reading an X-ray in an Emergency Dept is a must by all residents.
Reading a plain X-ray
Chest X-ray
Pelvic X-ray
Cervical Spine X-ray.
