Rescue proceedings in bodily injuries– how to train?

The presented systems of trainings – one designed for the activities in the prehospital, and the second adjusted to application in the hospital conditions are strictly related with each other, and, what should be emphasized – create a uniform entirety and complement one another. They offer the chance for the comprehensive management of the trauma patient, especially the critical trauma patient and the patient with multiorgan trauma. The application of this very procedure has a profound and already proven influence on the decrease in deaths of trauma patients and significant increase of survivability. Currently in Poland are introduced ATLS and PHTLS. The system of trainings will be available for doctors (in the case of ATLS and PHTLS) and for the prehospital care providers, medical care providers, nurses (PHTLS). For several years the course Basic Trauma Life Support has been taught. Also the system of work of the Hospital Rescue Teams and the shaping of Trauma Center is still being developed, as it takes place in the case of the provincial Hospital No. 5 in Sosnowiec.
