Early Bird Closes 24 June 2027

In this workshop we take on the challenge of the patient presenting with major trauma and explore a range of clinical cases that will assist to illustrate many of the core principles for the recognition and management of major trauma from preparing to receive the patient, to the immediate assessment priorities and management of life threatening complications, to coordinating definitive care or retrieval. Managing the patient with serious / life threatening injuries is complex and requires a structured, highly coordinated approach to minimise the risk of missing serious injury, setting treatment priorities, determining which investigations will be most useful and ensuring continuous reassessment of the patient to monitor for deterioration.

On day 2 we explore major trauma in a range of patient populations including paediatrics and obstetrics and consider the assessment, management and potential complications associated with burn injury. Core skills training includes application of splints (eg pelvic binder, CT7) and torniquets, management of the c-spine (including log roll) and options for obtaining vascular access.

By the end of the two days you should be confident to prepare major trauma, identify the immediate priorities in assessment and management and follow a structured and coordinated approach to managing the seriously injured patient.
