BEST CASE OF MY CAREER

Mon Jun 30 03:25:41 BST 2008

I have seen the second set of images.    I would also  consider DEFLATING the 
tamponading balloon for a few seconds in order to obtain  a view.   It may be 
that the internal carotid artery is occluded ONLY  by the occluding balloon.

sal-  good save!.........is the patient awake? Any lateralizing signs?
I agree  with Norm. Based on this angio view the injury can be approach thru 
formal  sternocleidomastoid approach........I favor repair before 
ligation........  although looks like the ophthalmic artery collateral is open like Dr 
Mattox  well mention 
Good case

The College of Emergency Nursing Australasia has  developed a trauma
nursing course that has modules for ED, ICU and the  Ward.  It's quite
good and has an e-learning component

Hi  Justin,  I have been doing hospital wide education using a  program
called Trauma Library Sessions.  I have completed the sessions  several
times and have been looking for other educational offerings which  could
be taught to nurses from  med-surg to ICU regarding trauma. I  was
wondering if you had any suggestions.
