Background: Support for prehospital tourniquet use has increased, with recent data suggesting that tourniquet usage decreases shock without increasing limb complications. We hypothesized that prehospital tourniquet application in extremity vascular trauma, compared with no prehospital tourniquet application, is associated with lower rates of delayed amputation and better functional mobility.
Methods: We retrospectively studied adult patients with extremity vascular trauma at an urban civilian Level 1 trauma center (June 2016-May 2021).
Background: Survivors of physical trauma, their home caregivers, and their medical providers all have an increased risk of developing psychological distress and trauma-related psychiatric disease. The purpose of this study was to describe the frequency and change over time of trauma society research presentations regarding mental health to identify opportunities for growth.
Methods: Archives from 2018 to 2020 from the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma, the Eastern Association for the Surgery of Trauma, and the Western Trauma Association were reviewed.
