Emergencies like trauma are very common in the whole world. Traffic accidents, work related accidents, accidents in and around homes, violence and natural disasters are common sources of casualties in need for fast treatment to prevent death or preventable disabilities. And it is sad to say: war, terrorism and criminal violence contribute a lot to the number of casualties. Emergency departments also deal with other emergencies like patients with heart attacks, strokes and ruptured abdominal aneurysms. But we concentrate on trauma in this article.
