Abstract:
Many trauma victims occur in China every year, with a notably high mortality rate among those who suffered from multiple traumas such as severe traffic trauma. One of the main reasons is the defect of current trauma emergency system, in which the full-time trauma physician often lacks. It has therefore become urgent to establish a well-organized trauma emergency system with full-time physicians.
