Trauma centre standards of the American College of Surgeons set a minimum annual volume of cases for trauma surgeons. The volume requirement, however, lacks an objective basis. The author reviews a personal series of cases revealing considerably lower volume than recommended, while injury severity and mortality were comparable to published data. No death was considered preventable on review. Possibly, lower individual caseloads are acceptable for trauma surgeons.
美国外科医师学会的创伤中心标准设定了创伤外科医生每年的最低病例量。然而,该病例量要求缺乏客观依据。作者回顾了一系列个人病例,发现其病例量远低于推荐值,而损伤严重程度和死亡率与已发表的数据相当。经审查,没有一例死亡被认为是可预防的。或许,创伤外科医生较低的个人工作量是可以接受的。
