Division of Trauma Surgery
TRAUMA TEAM IN TRI-SERVICE GENERAL HOSPITAL
TRAUMA TEAM in TSGH is responsible for major trauma events in ER patients.
The original design for the trauma team consisted of one team leader who is a
qualified trauma surgeon by Taiwan Surgical Association and four senior doctors
from CVS, GS, CS, GU and NS divisions. The trauma team members take over
the management of acute severe injury traumatized patients after primary survey
by ER physicians. The neurosurgeons and orthopedic surgeonsalso work closely
with us as consultant physicians and they can arrive within 15 minutes. The
anesthesia and radiology departments offer full support for the team. The CT
scanner is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We had trauma OR, the COR-
23, for acute polytraumatized patients and reserved SICU/NICU bed for them.
The trauma team makes every effort to provide best care for every severely
injured patients to our hospital.
