Fantastic day 1 of the Trauma_TORCH course. World class faculty and great breadth of topics. A great example of how the trauma system can deliver training. Thanks to Elaine Cole nigel tai Shehan Hettiaratchy (and others) for organising!
Amazing second day of torch so far, vascular and plastics trauma - pulse oximetry useful in potential limb ischaemia. Chest and abdo trauma, violence reduction - important to reduce re-attendance and improve lifestyles #TORCH Trauma_TORCH @BartsHospital West of Scotland MTC Scottish Trauma Ntwk
Elderly trauma - often under triaged, head injuries most common, elderly patients 5 times more likely to die. Important to remember elderly have significantly different physiological response #silvertrauma #TORCH West of Scotland MTC Scottish Trauma Ntwk Trauma_TORCH
