Penetrating cardio-thoracic injuries at a district level hospital in Cape Town South Africa : A retrospective case audit

Autor: Hameed-Ikram, Sarwat

The Khayelitsha District Hospital (KDH) faces the difficult challenge of managing patients with high acuity penetrating cardiothoracic injuries, but without the full complement of resources to provide optimal care. At the time of this dissertation, w
