Abstract

Although the life-threatening emergencies discussed here—interference with oxygenation, circulatory failure, and severe hemorrhage—are most often found in the traumatized patient, they occur in the acutely ill as well. The progressive methods outlined for dealing with them are applicable to any patient with a serious injury or illness, are very flexible, and allow the physician to concentrate on the major injuries yet not ignore other possible injuries.—MSR
