Injuries to pregnant women causes a lot of anxiety among trauma professionals. Not only is there one obvious seriously injured patient, but there’s a baby involved that is relatively invisible using the tools available in the trauma resuscitation room.
To help demystify and de-anxiefy (just made it up), the next newsletter will cover trauma in pregnancy in detail. Topics will include:
Tips and tricks
Predicting outcome
Monitoring
Safe imaging
Perimortem C-section
And more!

This is probably one of the worst calls a trauma surgeon can get: “Please dispatch a surgeon to the scene. We need a field amputation to extricate the patient.”
For trauma professionals in any discipline, this is probably a once in a career event. And for that reason, there is likely to be a lot of confusion.
The next newsletter will cover this topic in detail. Topics include:
Statistics on how often field amputation is needed
Indications for the procedure
Logistics: getting to the scene and staying safe
Essential equipment
Sample policies
And more!
