DESCRIZIONE

In 1999, the World Health Organization prophetically labeled trauma as the “Disease of the Next Millennium.” This issue of the Anesthesiology Clinics could not be any more timely. Given the state of the world today, with its grave social and political conflict and upheaval, its war, and its terrorism, trauma is indeed becoming an epidemic. Additionally, with the universal problem of violent crime, as well as serious accidents, all anesthesiologists must be experts in trauma anesthesia. This issue, Guest Edited by Drs. Micha Shamir and Yoram Weiss of Hadassah - Hebrew University Medical Center in Jerusalem, covers the vital topics that Anesthesiologists must master. This includes: Management of the Injured Airway, The Critically Ill Un-Transportable Injured Patient, Hemorrhagic Shock Treatment, Non Surgical Treatment of Major Bleeding, Aggressive Hemostasis Control, Training the Anesthesiologist - The Role of Simulators, Management of the Geriatric Trauma Patient, Trauma and the Overweight Patient, Regional Anesthesia, Pain, Anesthesia in the Battle Field, Mechanisms of Injury by Explosive Devices, Multiple Casualty Incidents - The American Experience, Multiple Casualty Incidents - The European Experience, and Non Conventional Terror - Organophosphates Intoxication.
