Abstract

The care of the trauma patient is a complex undertaking involving multiple health care professionals and represents one of the greatest challenges to any physician. There is perhaps no greater opportunity to have a positive impact on patient care than in the care of these patients. By adhering to a systematized and prioritized approach, the chances of the patient's survival with decreased morbidity are dramatically improved. It is the physician's responsibility both to provide the best care he or she is capable of delivering and to oversee the care delivered by other professionals. With proper motivation and experience, the physician's care of trauma patients will continually improve. This will lead to a rewarding experience for the patient and the physician alike.
