Abstrakt: Advanced Trauma Life Support (ATLS) takes a standardized approach to casualty management. It is most appropriate for civilian trauma and medical providers who do not manage trauma patients on a regular basis. Data presented herein show that a different type of patient is seen in wartime, and that much additional teaching and information dispersal will be needed to prepare medical personnel for wartime.
