Abstract

Trauma, whether it is blunt trauma due to a motor vehicle accident or drug-related violence resulting in penetrating injuries, continues to pose a serious public health problem. With improvements that have occurred in prehospital care, more trauma patients arrive in the emergency department alive. A thorough knowledge of the physiology related to the primary injury and of the associated secondary effects of therapeutic interventions is paramount to delivering quality trauma care.
