This book offers an overview of acute care surgery around the
world, focusing on the four main branches of this novel
subdiscipline: trauma, general emergencies, critical care, and
rescue surgery. The bookâs primary goal is to provide a general
view of acute care surgery, while addressing the most important
issues in depth. The content is divided into three parts, the first
of which is dedicated to the general organization of trauma
centers, including the composition of modern trauma teams.
Protocols of activation and action for the trauma team, as well as
damage control procedures both in the emergency room and in the
surgical theatre, are described. The book also addresses the
development of a trauma registry, together with the quality
assessment process that can be applied. In turn, the second part
describes the principal protocols for making diagnoses, with
special attention to circumstances such as unstable hemodynamics,
neurological deterioration, normal vital signs, and penetrating
injuries. The book subsequently deals with the most important
aspects of trauma to the abdomen, chest, and pelvis, with notes on
both surgical and intensive care issues. Practical descriptions of
how to treat principal injuries to various organs are also
provided. Finally, the third part of the book is dedicated to the
most frequent general surgical emergencies and rescue surgical
approaches, and includes information on diagnostic support with
point of care ultrasound and endoscopic advanced techniques.
Presenting cutting-edge strategies, this book will be of interest
to professionals involved in surgical and intensive care for
emergency conditions, such as colonic perforations, obstructions,
acute pancreatitis, biliary tree stones, and caustic injuries.
