Variability in care in emergency surgery is well known,
particularly in abdominal surgery, and reducing it is fundamental
to improving outcomes. It is therefore vital to identify the
factors that are key to improving mortality and reducing
complications in various surgical emergencies. Under the leadership
of the World Society of Emergency Surgery, over 200 leading experts
in emergency surgery, critical care and surgical infections
established a template to help define and optimise emergency
surgery, particularly that relating to the abdomen. This book
refines this initial work, crystallising it into a meaningful
resource for practising surgeons and health care administrators
alike, and paving the way for advances in emergency surgery around
the globe. This book sets a benchmark for Emergency Surgery and is
a must read for those wanting their patients to do better.

coagulopathic trauma patient, and the data that supports it. By
meticulously describing the methodology of most traditional as well

understanding of the tests that are used to study trauma induced
coagulopathy. The evolving use of blood products as well as
recently introduced hemostatic medications are reviewed in detail.
Trauma Induced Coagulopathy will also be a valuable source for
quick reference to the clinician that is faced with specific
clinical challenges when managing coagulopathy.

The first edition of this publication was aimed at defining the
current concepts of trauma induced coagulopathy by critically
analyzing the most up-to-date studies from a clinical and basic
science perspective. It served as a reference source for any
clinician interested in reviewing the pathophysiology, diagnosis,
and management of the coagulopathic trauma patient, and the data
that supports it. By meticulously describing the methodology of
most traditional as well as state of the art coagulation assays the
reader is provided with a full understanding of the tests that are
used to study trauma induced coagulopathy. With the growing
interest in understanding and managing coagulation in trauma, this
second edition has been expanded to 46 chapters from its original
35 to incorporate the massive global efforts in understanding,
diagnosing, and treating trauma induced coagulopathy. The evolving
use of blood products as well as recently introduced hemostatic
medications is reviewed in detail. The text provides therapeutic
strategies to treat specific coagulation abnormalities following
severe injury, which goes beyond the first edition that largely was
based on describing the mechanisms causing coagulation
abnormalities. Trauma Induced Coagulopathy 2nd Edition is a
valuable reference to clinicians that are faced with specific
clinical challenges when managing coagulopathy.

practical algorithm and review of recent literature. This text will
serve as a guide, learning tool, and reference manual for all
levels of practitioners, from aspiring student to seasoned
attending.
