CRIT5019: Advanced Trauma Management
2027 unit information
CRIT5019 builds on the foundations laid in Major Trauma Management. The unit of study is based on trauma cases, with actual dilemmas and clinical pearls. It will prepare clinicians for a middle-grade to senior role in a trauma service. It is also widely relevant to any frontline doctor who sees trauma patients in all settings: metropolitan, regional, rural and remote. It explores the resuscitative, surgical, medical, psychosocial, and system-related issues in advanced trauma care. CRIT5016 (Major Trauma Management) is a prerequisite.
