Emergency treatment of thoracic trauma

et al. 2006

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Thoracic trauma, most often associated with other serious injuries, is the main cause of death in the first 45 years of life. The percentage of chest injuries in multiple trauma, mainly from blunt impact, has remained relatively constant at 80% during the last 30 years. Isolated thoracic injuries comprise only 25% of all trauma cases, 90% of chest injuries are due to blunt impact, while penetrating injuries make up 5-10%. Since 25% of deaths from trauma are attributable to chest injuries, they determine the survival rate in multiple trauma to a significant extent. The pattern of chest injuries is variable, frequently in different combinations comprising rib cage and diaphragm, lung parenchyma, airway and mediastinal organs. This article details the immediate simultaneous diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in the prehospital phase, management in the emergency room, the relative importance of computed tomography, ultrasound examination and endoscopy in the primary diagnostic evaluation and the principles of anaesthetic management of thoracic trauma.
