Hybrid emergency room systems (HER) allow for CT scans, surgery, and interventional radiology to be done without moving the patient, reducing critical time for treatment in severe trauma cases.
A patient with significant injuries, including artery occlusion and organ damage from blunt trauma, initially suffered cardiac arrest after a CT scan but was resuscitated through quick interventions performed within the HER.
This case demonstrates that the HER system effectively facilitates rapid diagnosis and treatment, improving survival rates in patients with severe blunt trauma.
