Advanced trauma life support (ATLS) is crucial in today's acute care. As the basis of the ABCDE principle of examination and treatment, this methodology is also applied to many specialisations other than trauma surgery. However, ATLS was only launched in 1980. In this article we describe the emergence of ATLS and its development to become the recognised standard for trauma training and care in over 60 countries.
高级创伤生命支持(ATLS)在当今的急症护理中至关重要。作为检查和治疗的ABCDE原则的基础,这种方法也应用于创伤外科以外的许多专业领域。然而,ATLS直到1980年才推出。在本文中,我们描述了ATLS的出现及其发展成为60多个国家认可的创伤培训和护理标准的过程。
