Greetings
We have a month or more of trauma ahead of us and a lot of interesting talks
The idea is to get through the most important and contemporary aspects of trauma management in ED and also to brush on some basic concepts of ATLS that we practice
There is a list of topics to present
this month we will summarise all our talks by leaving comments on this web page
any talks that are stored in open access cloud space (google drive / icloud etc ) will have links on this page
The value of this sort of teaching is that there is documentation of what we are learning and anopportunity for all of us to feedback perspective updates etc . This reflects what WEB 2.0 is all about !!
