Il manuale TBMC di IRC si rivolge ad operatori con già esperienza traumatologica di base che desiderino affinare le proprie capacità di gestione delle prime fasi di assistenza intra-ospedaliera al trauma grave. I traumi interessano ogni fascia di età, ma dopo il primo anno di vita e sotto ai 47 anni rappresentano la prima causa di morte: sono responsabili del 32% dei decessi nella fascia di età 1-9 anni, del 39,7% tra 10 e 24 anni e del 27,2% tra i 25 e i 44 anni. Il manuale TBMC di IRC si rivolge ad operatori con già esperienza traumatologica di base che desiderino affinare le proprie capacità di gestione delle prime fasi di assistenza intra-ospedaliera al trauma grave. Viene proposto un modello basato sulle conoscenze più avanzate, derivate dalla letteratura e dall’esperienza ventennale di alcuni Centri Trauma italiani, con una particolare attenzione alle strategie ed ai percorsi diagnostico-assistenziali in sala di emergenza, la “Trauma Bay” dei paesi di lingua inglese. La finalità è fornire gli elementi di conoscenza per affrontare le varie problematiche, non solo in centri specialistici ma anche negli Ospedali con minori risorse dove il trauma deve essere stabilizzato e trasferito ad altre strutture per la cura definitiva.
