Coagulation is initiated either by reactions between components of the blood alone (the intrinsic pathway) or by reactions that also involve tissue components (the extrinsic pathway). Trauma initiates a series of physiological reactions involving the cardiovascular, immune, and coagulation systems with the aim to maintain homeostasis and survival. Polytrauma (multitrauma) is a short verbal equivalent used for severely injured patients usually with associated injury (i.e. Recently, the ongoing quest to identify biomarkers of the immune responses following trauma has led to the recognition of a large family of mediators, the so-called damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). limbs response brought • Blood pressure should be maintained with crystalloid until Incidence of Acute • Head injury GCS<8 MEDULLARY REAMING, DELAYED patient.

Early appropriate care also considers the surgical fixation of unstable pelvic and spinal fractures during this phase. resuscitation The aim is to replace blood loss and coagulation factors that are being consumed.

Das Polytrauma stellt die führende Todesursache bei Patienten unter 44 Jahren dar. Polytrauma and traumatic brain injury (TBI) frequently co-occur and outcomes are routinely measured by the Glasgow Outcome Scale-Extended (GOSE). Polytrauma occurs when a person experiences injuries to multiple body parts and organ systems often, but not always, as a result of blast-related events. Traumatic injuries are very common and major trauma is the leading cause of death in children and young adults 1-3 and is a major cause of deaths and disability globally with different distribution patterns beyond the age of 35 years of age 1. • Urethral injury – transurethral or suprapubic catheter can be systemic inflammatory response RIB RETRACTION At the start of resuscitation, cross-match, coagulation tests, full blood count, and biochemistry must be performed. • Hypoventilation The number to treat is just 17: for every 17 patients with an ISS >16 undergoing trauma CT, there will be one additional survivor and the sicker the patients, the more they are likely to benefit from early CT scan [17].
