Summary

Introduction

Trauma is medicine practiced by teams/groups of health professionals. The field of trauma extends from injury prevention to trauma systems, from pre-hospital care to rehabilitation with lots in between including several hospital-based professionals (i.e. nurses, surgeons, anesthetists, intensivists, technologists, physiotherapists and others).
