Book Description

ISBN-10: 0881679941 | ISBN-13: 978-0881679946 | Publication Date: February 1993

These protocols were developed by the orthopaedic surgeons, general surgeons, neurosurgeons, anaesthesiologists, nurses, and physical and occupational therapists at Harborview Medical Centre's orthopaedic trauma facility. The first ten chapters describe the trauma surgeon's role in orthopaedic trauma management and present comprehensive guidelines on nursing care, psychosocial management, anaesthesia, post-operative pain control, and rehabilitation. The remaining 20 chapters provide protocols for surgical-treatment of high-impact injuries in each region of the musculoskeletal system and spine. Emphasis is placed on the surgical problems and potential complications that distinguish these injuries from routine fractures.
