The modern management of splenic injury: a model for coordinated trauma services.
J Pak Med Assoc Jan ;59(8):530-4.

The modern management of trauma is continually evolving; based on the foundations of Advance Trauma Life Support (ATLS), advances in technology for radiological diagnosis and intervention have revolutionized the hospital care of the trauma victim. The growing trauma burden from both Road Traffic Collisions (RTCs) and interpersonal violence and existing deficits in trauma care provision in Pakistan were recently highlighted in this journal,2 as was the absence of pre-hospital care provision and dearth of hospital ATLS providers. In developing a robust system of trauma care from its foundations, Pakistan must look to the practice of experienced centres and `borrow` best practice within the limits of local care facilities.
