Trauma is a relatively common presenting complaint to veterinarians. All veterinarians see emergencies on a regular basis, and the increasing importance of emergency medicine and critical care in veterinary medicine calls for a book like this. Research has proven that the majority of veterinarians are dealing with trauma and injury for 25-50 per cent of their time. The types of trauma and the physiologic consequences can be wide ranging. Hence, the approach to these patients can be quite daunting for the general practitioner who does not see these types of cases on a daily basis. The authors have benefited from over 25 years of combined experience working in the busiest academic emergency room in the world.
I.Physiology and pathophysiology of trauma II.Global Approach to the Trauma Patient a.Telephone triage/first aid advice b.Triage i.History ii.Rapid Assessment of four major organ systems. 1.Recognition of most life-threatening conditions. c.Primary Survey i.Assessment of Respiratory System and Emergency Treatment. ii.Assessment of Tissue Perfusion and Emergency Treatment. iii.Assessment of the Nervous System and Emergency Treatment. iv.Assessment of the Renal System and Emergency Treatment. d.Secondary Survey i.Detailed physical examination (Nose to tail).
