Incidence of road traffic accident is highest in India. Non-compliance of traffic rules, use of mobile phone and alcohol consumption while driving are major contributory factors for trauma. Every person should never hesitate to help the patient laying on road. We should try to stop bleeding with hand after putting clean cloth and try to shift patient to nearby hospital. We should call 108 number for help. Immediate care of patient by a specialist doctor, preferably Neurosurgeon, makes a significant difference in outcomes of patient.
Investigation : CT Head and X- rays of other parts, USG abdomen
Treatment : Once patient reaches emergency room, initial quick clinical assessment is done and meanwhile ,resuscitation of patient is done by nursing staff. Active bleeding, splints for bony skeletal fractures and dressings are done simultaneously. After stabilization, CT head is done. Depending upon condition of patient and CT head findings, further plan for patient either with medications and surgery is made .
