THE GOLDEN HOUR IN MAYA CARE
BBe it a minor scratch or a life-threatening event, every family will have a story about an accident or some other trauma they were involved in. The burden of trauma is unrealized, but it is one of the most leading causes of significant debility and even death, especially among younger people between the age 15 to 30 years.
16 / Lakh people die every hour in accidents.
It’s estimated that about 16 people per every 1 lakh population in India die due to road business accidents. It’s our duty to bring mindfulness to common man about how a timely action can save lives in such an event.
It’s of critical significance to classify the cases who need medical backing grounded on their clinical precedence. The cases with life- hanging injuries need to be linked, estimated, and resuscitated as a top precedence in a quick and accurate manner to reduce mortality and morbidity.
The Emergency trauma team
It takes a whole trauma team to effectively resuscitate a critically ill trauma patient. The team will constitute the emergency physician and nurses, blood bank team, radiology team, operating team etc. Every person, starting from a doctor to the security and cleaning person, will have to fill in their specific role for effective outcome of the patient.
A detailed history of events and a definitive diagnosis is not necessary for initial resuscitation of a trauma patient. The injuries causing greatest threat to life are to be treated as a priority. This needs rapid and accurate evaluation of the patient in an orderly manner, identifying the problem and treating it.
- – any threat to breathing and drop in oxygen levels
- – then maintaining the blood pressure by controlling blood loss
- – then assess the brain functioning
- – then head to toe examination to treat other less critical injuries
The emergency trauma team will be ever ready, 24×7, to treat all trauma patients. With additional support from the by-standers and paramedical team, the mortality and morbidity of trauma patients can significantly be brought down.
