Identification and Management of Pelvic Fractures in Prehospital and Emergency Department Settings. J Surg Res 2024; 300:371-380. [PMID: 38843724 DOI: 10.1016/j.jss.2024.05.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2024] [Revised: 05/03/2024] [Accepted: 05/08/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study aims to describe the characteristics of patients with a pelvic fracture treated at a level 1 trauma center, the proportion of prehospital undertriage and the use of pelvic circumferential compression device (PCCD). METHODS This is a retrospective cohort study. Prehospital and inhospital medical records of adults (≥16 y old) with a pelvic fracture who were treated at Hopital de l'Enfant-Jesus-CHU de Québec (Quebec City, Canada), a university-affiliated level 1 trauma center, between September 01, 2017 and September 01, 2021 were reviewed. Isolated hip or pubic ramus fracture were excluded. Data are presented using proportions and means with standard deviations. RESULTS A total of 228 patients were included (males: 62.3%; mean age: 54.6 [standard deviation 21.1]). Motor vehicle collision (47.4%) was the main mechanism of injury followed by high-level fall (21.5%). Approximately a third (34.2%) needed at least one blood transfusion. Compared to those admitted directly, transferred patients were more likely to be male (73.0% versus 51.3%, P < 0.001) and to have a surgical procedure performed at the trauma center (71.3% versus 46.9%, P < 0.001). The proportion of prehospital undertriage was 22.6%. Overall, 17.1% had an open-book fracture and would have potentially benefited from a prehospital PCCD. Forty-six transferred patients had a PCCD applied at the referral hospital of which 26.1% needed adjustment. CONCLUSIONS Pelvic fractures are challenging to identify in the prehospital environment and are associated with a high undertriage of 22.6%. Reducing undertriage and optimizing the use of PCCD are key opportunities to improve care of patients with a pelvic fracture.

BMC MEDICAL EDUCATION 2024; 24:670. [PMID: 38886758 PMCID: PMC11184731 DOI: 10.1186/s12909-024-05657-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2023] [Accepted: 06/12/2024] [Indexed: 06/20/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Advanced Trauma Life Support was originated mainly to train doctors who don't manage trauma on a regular basis, including junior doctors as it prepares them more efficiently and effectively for treating and managing trauma patients. This study was conducted to study knowledge, attitude and practice of advanced trauma life support protocol among house-officers in Khartoum state hospitals, Sudan 2023. METHODS This is a cross-sectional descriptive health facility based study conducted in Bahri Teaching Hospital, Omdurman Teaching Hospital and Ibrahim Malik teaching hospital, Khartoum state, Sudan. Data of 151 House-officers of all nationality working in Khartoum state hospitals was collected using a simple random technique, filling questionnaire that was designed especially for this study. Comparison between different variables by Chi-square test and statistical significance difference at P value < 0.05 was done. RESULT A total of 151 house officers were included in the study. 49% aged between 20 and 25 years, females were the majority 56.3%. About 41.1% have took ATLS course before. 55.21% of the study participants didn't take the course because it was not available, while 35.42% because it was expensive and 29.17% referred it to their busy lifestyle. 91% of the study population think that ATLS course should be compulsory and 85% think that the ATLS protocol should be recommended to both junior and senior doctors. 77% of the study participants stated that their seniors teaching skills affect how they apply ATLS. CONCLUSION Overall junior doctors at Khartoum state hospitals demonstrated a positive attitude towards ATLS, but they showed poor knowledge regarding the topic. It's advised that an earlier training program is introduced by incorporating ATLS course to be part of all final year medical school's curriculum.

Abstract
Background There is currently no integrated data system to capture the true burden of injury and its management within Ontario’s regional trauma networks (RTNs), largely owing to difficulties in identifying these patients across the multiple health care provider records. Our project represents an iterative effort to create the ability to chart the course of care for all injured patients within the Central South RTN. Methods Through broad stakeholder engagement of major health care provider organizations within the Central South RTN, we obtained research ethics board approval and established data-sharing agreements with multiple agencies. We tested identification of trauma cases from Jan. 1 to Dec. 31, 2017, and methods to link patient records between the various echelons of care to identify barriers to linkage and opportunities for administrative solutions. Results During 2017, potential trauma cases were identified within ground paramedic services (23 107 records), air medical transport services (196 records), referring hospitals (7194 records) and the lead trauma hospital trauma registry (1134 records). Linkage rates for medical records between services ranged from 49% to 92%. Conclusion We successfully conceptualized and provided a preliminary demonstration of an initiative to collect, collate and accurately link primary data from acute trauma care providers for certain patients injured within the Central South RTN. Administration-level changes to the capture and management of trauma data represent the greatest opportunity for improvement.

Abstract
Background During the past several decades, the American College of Surgeons has led efforts to standardize trauma care through their trauma center verification process and Trauma Quality Improvement Program. Despite these endeavors, great variability remains among trauma centers functioning at the same level. Little research has been conducted on the correlation between trauma center organizational structure and patient outcomes. We are attempting to close this knowledge gap with the Comparative Assessment Framework for Environments of Trauma Care (CAFE) project. Methods Our first action was to establish a shared terminology that we then used to build the Ontology of Organizational Structures of Trauma centers and Trauma systems (OOSTT). OOSTT underpins the web-based CAFE questionnaire that collects detailed information on the particular organizational attributes of trauma centers and trauma systems. This tool allows users to compare their organizations to an aggregate of other organizations of the same type, while collecting their data. Results In collaboration with the American College of Surgeons Committee on Trauma, we tested the system by entering data from three trauma centers and four trauma systems. We also tested retrieval of answers to competency questions. Discussion The data we gather will be made available to public health and implementation science researchers using visualizations. In the next phase of our project, we plan to link the gathered data about trauma center attributes to clinical outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Damage control laparotomy (DCL) is a lifesaving technique to minimize the lethal triad of coagulopathy, hypothermia, and acidosis. The government has nominated and supported our center as one of the regional trauma centers of South Korea since 2014. This study aimed to investigate the improving outcomes of patients undergoing DCL before and after the establishment of the trauma center. METHOD The period from January 2011 to December 2017 was divided into pre-trauma center (pre-TC) (2011-2013) and trauma center (TC) (2014-2017) periods. Multivariable logistic regression was performed to identify the risk factors and risk-adjusted cumulative sum (RA-CUSUM), and graphs were used to monitor the change in mortality. RESULT Of the 485 patients who underwent trauma laparotomy, DCL was performed for 119 patients (24.5%). The operation time (99 vs. 80 min, p = 0.022), time from admission to operation (125 vs. 112 min, p = 0.010), time from admission to first treatment (119 vs. 99 min, p = 0.004), and time from admission to first transfusion (70 vs. 52 min, p = 0.009) were significantly shortened in the TC period. The ratio of plasma to packed red blood cells in massive transfusions (≥PRBCs 10 units within the first 24 h) was significantly increased in the TC period (0.56 vs. 0.72, p = 0.004). RA-CUSUM curves revealed that the risk-adjusted 30-day mortality improved and then plateaued in the TC period. CONCLUSION After the implementation of a trauma center, more prompt intervention and damage control resuscitation could be achieved. Moreover, risk-adjusted mortality of DCL was improved.

[PMID: 32076594 PMCID: PMC7003060 DOI: 10.5339/qmj.2019.qccc.5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2019] [Accepted: 10/17/2019] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Trauma is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide, and thus represents a great global health challenge. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimated that 9% of deaths in the world are the result of trauma.1 In addition, approximately 100 million people are temporarily or permanently disabled every year.2 The situation is no different in Qatar, and injury related morbidity and mortality is increasing in the entire region, with road traffic collisions (RTCs) being the most common mechanism.1 It is well recognized now that trauma care provided in high-volume, dedicated, level-one trauma centers, improves outcome. Studies have also looked at what are the components of a trauma system that contribute to their effectiveness2. However, in general, it usually implies a high-volume of cases, dedicated full-time trauma qualified professionals, a solid pre-hospital system, a multidisciplinary team, and excellent rehabilitation services. Similarly, critically injured trauma patients managed in a dedicated trauma intensive care unit (TICU), has been shown to improve outcomes, especially for polytrauma patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI).3 In fact, the American College of Surgeons (ACS) Committee on Trauma requires verified trauma centers to have a designated ICU, and that a trauma surgeon be its director.4 Furthermore, studies have shown that for TBI, it is not necessary for this ICU to be a neurocritical care unit, but rather it should be a unit that is dedicated to trauma, that has standardized protocols for TBI management.5,6 In fact, the outcomes are better in the latter, with lower mortality in multiple-injured patients with TBI, when admitted to a TICU (versus a medical-surgical ICU or neurocritical care unit).3 These benefits were shown to increase, with increased injury severity. The proposed reason for this is thought to be due to the associated injuries being managed better.7 The aim of this editorial is to describe the TICU at Hamad General Hospital (HGH), at Hamad Medical Corporation (HMC), including a comparison of its data and outcomes with other similar trauma centers in the world. The Qatar Trauma Registry, as well as previous publications from our Trauma Center,1,8 were used to obtain HGH TICU and worldwide Level-1 Trauma Center standards, respectively. With respect to HGH, the TICU is part of an integrated trauma program, the only level-1 trauma centre in Qatar. It provides the highest standard of care for critically-ill trauma patients admitted at HGH, striving to achieve the best outcomes, excellence in evidence-based patient care, up to date technology, and a high level of academics in research and teaching. This integrated program includes an excellent pre-hospital unit, emergency and trauma resuscitation unit, TICU, trauma step-down unit (TSDU), inpatient ward, and rehabilitation unit. The new TICU is a closed 19-bed unit, that was inaugurated in 2016, is managed 24/7 by highly qualified and experienced intensivists (9 senior consultants and consultants), along with 24 well-trained and experienced associate consultants or specialists, and fellows and residents in training, as well as expert nursing staff (1:1 nurse to patient ratio) and allied health professionals (respiratory therapists, pharmacists, dieticians, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, social workers, case managers, and psychologists). It is supported by all medical and surgical subspecialty services. It is equipped with the latest state-of-the-art technology and equipment, including 'intelligent ventilators", neuro-monitoring devices, ultrasound, point-of-care testing such as arterial blood gas and rotational thromboelastrometry (ROTEM), and video airway devices. The TICU is a teaching unit, linked to the HMC Medical Education department, with presence of fellows, and residents (see below for details). Medical students (Clerkship level) from Weill-Cornell Medicine Qatar also complete a one-week rotation in the TICU, as part of their exposure to critical care. The first batch of clerks from Qatar University College of Medicine are expected to start rotating in the TICU soon. The Trauma Critical Care Fellowship Program (TCCFP) is an ACGME (Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education) fellowship that was established over seven years ago. To date, over 40 physicians from both within, and out of, the trauma department have completed the program. Up to seven fellows, including international candidates, are trained each year. A number of physicians have succeeded in gaining the European Diploma of Intensive Care Medicine (EDIC). The program continues to attract many applicants from various specialties including surgery, anesthesia, and emergency medicine. An increasing number of international physicians from Europe and South America have expressed interest in applying for our fellowship. The first international fellows are likely to join us from early 2020. Residents (from general surgery, ER, ENT, plastics, orthopedics, and neurosurgery) rotate (one to three months' rotations) in the TICU, and are actively part of the clinical team. There were 568 admissions to the TICU in 2018. The patients admitted were either mainly polytrauma patients with varying degrees and combinations of head, chest, abdominal, pelvic, spine, and orthopedic injuries, or isolated-TBI. Of these patients, 378 were severely injured with an injury severity score (ISS)9 greater than 16. According to previously published data from our Trauma Centre,1,8 our mortality rates (overall approximately 6-7%, as well as when looked at in terms of early and late deaths) compare favorably with other trauma centers around the world, when looking at similarly sized retrospective studies. The TICU continues to be an active member of the Critical Care Network of HMC.10 This network involves all of the ICU's in all the HMC facilities. The main processes that the TICU is presently involved in as part of this network are: patient flow, clinical practice guidelines, evaluation and procurement of technologies, HMC sepsis program, and in general, taking part in any process that pertains to critical care at HMC. A number of quality improvement projects are being undertaken in the TICU. Examples of such projects include: - Decreasing rates of infection in TICU- Score-guided sedation orders to decrease sedation use, ventilator days and length of stay- Reducing blood taking and associated costs- Sepsis alert response and bundle compliance- Medical and surgical management of rib fracturesA multidisciplinary team of physicians, nurses, and allied health professionals participate in these projects, and meet once a month to review all projects. Similarly, many research projects are taking place in the TICU, in coordination with the Trauma Research program, and often in collaboration with other departments (local and international). Examples of some of the research projects include: - The "POLAR" study (RCT on Hypothermia in TBI)11- B-blockers in TBI (RCT-ongoing)- Tranexamic acid (TXA) for bleeding in trauma (RCT-ongoing) The team is also involved in conducting systematic reviews in relation to the role of transcranial doppler in TBI,12 sepsis in TBI patients (ongoing), self-extubation in TBI patients,13 safety and efficacy of phenytoin in TBI (ongoing), and optic nerve diameter for predicting outcome in TBI (submitted). The TICU at HGH is a high-volume, high acuity unit that manages all the severely injured trauma patients in Qatar. It is well staffed with highly trained and qualified personnel, and utilizes the latest in technology and state-of-the-art equipment. It performs very well, when compared to other similar units in the world, and achieves a comparable, or even lower mortality rate. With continued great support from the hospital, corporation administration, and Ministry of Public Health, the future goals of the TICU will be to maintain and improve upon the high standards of clinical care it provides, as well as perform a high quality and quantity of research, quality improvement initiatives, and educational work, in order for it to be amongst the best trauma critical care units in the world.

Abstract
One of the main causes of adults' disability during their working age is multiple trauma. The process of medical care of patients who are injured seriously is still a challenging job. The primary treatment of these patients in the emergency medicine departments is the most required choice after the wilderness first aid and also would be very required before definitive care in the hospital. The main aim of emergency medicine departments is quick recognition and treatment of injuries which pose severe threat to patients' life in appropriate order of priority. The procedure of primary evaluation in emergency medicine department with the help of medical routine examination and ultrasonography is based on the concept of focused assessment with sonography in trauma (FAST) for identifying spontaneous intraperitoneal hemorrhage. Emergency patients who suffer from massive hematothorax, serious lung and heart traumas, and penetrating traumas to the chest would undergo thoracotomy and patients who have few symptoms of perforated hollow viscous will undergo emergency laparotomy. Based on the trauma severity, emergency treatment could be the way to fast recovery of the structure of injured organ and its function. The subsequent goal, in the acute phase, will concentrate on preventing and stopping bleeding and secondary injuries like painful compartment syndrome or intra-abdominal infections (IAIs). However, the main aim of emergency medicine department in taking care of severely injured patients is the management of airway, protecting circulation and breathing, identification of neurologic problems, and whole body clinical examination with the help of healthcare providers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effectiveness of trauma systems in decreasing injury mortality and morbidity has been well demonstrated. However, little is known about which components contribute to their effectiveness. We aimed to systematically review the evidence of the impact of trauma system components on clinically important injury outcomes. METHODS We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane CENTRAL, and BIOSIS/Web of Knowledge, gray literature and trauma association Web sites to identify studies evaluating the association between at least one trauma system component and injury outcome. We calculated pooled effect estimates using inverse-variance random-effects models. We evaluated quality of evidence using GRADE criteria. RESULTS We screened 15,974 records, retaining 41 studies for qualitative synthesis and 19 for meta-analysis. Two recommended trauma system components were associated with reduced odds of mortality: inclusive design (odds ratio [OR] = 0.72 [0.65-0.80]) and helicopter transport (OR = 0.70 [0.55-0.88]). Pre-Hospital Advanced Trauma Life Support was associated with a significant reduction in hospital days (mean difference [MD] = 5.7 [4.4-7.0]) but a nonsignificant reduction in mortality (OR = 0.78 [0.44-1.39]). Population density of surgeons was associated with a nonsignificant decrease in mortality (MD = 0.58 [-0.22 to 1.39]). Trauma system maturity was associated with a significant reduction in mortality (OR = 0.76 [0.68-0.85]). Quality of evidence was low or very low for mortality and healthcare utilization. CONCLUSIONS This review offers low-quality evidence for the effectiveness of an inclusive design and trauma system maturity and very-low-quality evidence for helicopter transport in reducing injury mortality. Further research should evaluate other recommended components of trauma systems and non-fatal outcomes and explore the impact of system component interactions.

Abstract
In this road map for trauma in France, we focus on the main challenges for system implementation, surgical and radiology training and upon innovative training techniques. Regarding system organisation: procedures for triage, designation and certification of trauma centres are mandatory to implement trauma networks on a national scale. Data collection with registries must be created, with a core dataset defined and applied through all registries. Regarding surgical and radiology training, diagnostic-imaging processes should be standardised and the role of the interventional radiologist within the trauma team and the trauma network should be clearly defined. Education in surgery for trauma is crucial and recent changes in medical training in France will promote trauma surgery as a specific sub-specialty. Innovative training techniques should be implemented and be based on common objectives, scenarios and evaluation, so as to improve individual and team performances. The group formulated 14 proposals that should help to structure and improve major trauma management in France over the next 10 years.
