YAO Yuan-zhang
Abstract:Multiple trauma is a "time-dependent" disease."Time window" exists in its first-aid.Once the time delays or the"time window" is exceeded,patients may lose the best chance of rescue and the death rates and the incidence rate of comlications will increase.The adoption of correct and effective treatment measures to a-chieve the best treatment effect during the "time window" can reflect the timeliness of emergency treatment of polytrauma.Rapid emergency,trauma assessment,preoperative preparation in short time are basic requirements for the timeliness of emergency.The concept of timeliness in the first-aid of multiple trauma has evolved from a qualita-tive process of speed into a precise quantitative process.Recognition of the timeliness in the treatment of individuals and mass casulty has very important significance for the determination of priority in multiple trauma emergency.To ensure the effectiveness of multiple trauma emergency,a corresponding system and process must be established and the damage control surgery strategy must be followed during the treatment process in all aspects.
