Acute Care for Traumatic Injuries and Surgical Outcomes

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue focuses on the immediate management and treatment of traumatic injuries, as well as the subsequent surgical outcomes, resulting from accidents, falls, violence, or other forms of physical trauma. The field of acute care for traumatic injuries involves providing timely and specialized medical interventions to stabilize patients, prevent further damage, and optimize outcomes, which may include emergency resuscitation, diagnostic imaging, surgical interventions, pain management, and rehabilitation. Since the average life expectancy of global populations has been increasing in recent decades, doctors now often have to provide care for patients who suffer from several comorbidities, which may require specialized treatment algorithms for older patients.

By continually improving acute care protocols and surgical techniques, healthcare professionals aim to enhance patient outcomes, minimize complications, and improve the overall quality of life of individuals who have experienced traumatic injuries. With this purpose in mind, we cordially invite all authors to submit original or review articles to the Special Issue.
