Optimal management of emergency surgical patients represents one of the major health challenges worldwide. Emergency general surgery (EGS) was identified as multidisciplinary surgery performed for traumatic and non-traumatic acute conditions during the same admission in the hospital. EGS represents the easiest viable way to provide affordable and high-quality level of care to emergency surgical and trauma patients. It may result from the association of different physicians with other specialties in a cooperative model. The World Society of Emergency Surgery (WSES) has been working on the EGS organization and implementation since its foundation believing in the need of common benchmarks for training and educational programs throughout the world. This is a plea in different languages to all World Prime Ministers and Presidents to support the creation in all nations of an organized hub-spoke system for emergency general surgery to improve standards of care and to save lives.
优化急诊外科患者的管理是全球主要的健康挑战之一。急诊普通外科(EGS)被定义为在同一住院期间为创伤性和非创伤性急性病症进行的多学科手术。EGS 是为急诊外科和创伤患者提供负担得起的高质量医疗服务的最简单可行的方法。它可能是由于不同医生与其他专业合作模式的联合。世界急诊外科学会(WSES)自成立以来一直致力于 EGS 的组织和实施,相信在全球范围内,培训和教育计划需要共同的基准。这是用不同语言向所有世界各国总理和总统发出的呼吁,要求支持在所有国家建立一个有组织的急诊普通外科枢纽辐射系统,以提高护理标准和拯救生命。
