End points in trauma management

Fluid resuscitation following traumatic haemorrhage has historically been instituted as soon after injury as possible. Patients suffering from haemorrhagic shock may receive several liters of crystalloid, in addition to colloid solutions, in order to normalize blood pressure, heart rate, urine outpu...
