1‐6 The coordinated reception and resuscitation of patients with major trauma in the hospital phase of care is pivotal to these improvements. Not only do critical resuscitative manoeuvres occur during this phase, but the clinical decisions made establish the basis for further care. The hospital reception and resuscitation of seriously injured patients requires many management decisions in a short space of time. During this phase of care, simultaneous processes proceed at different rates in an unpredictable and changing setting. Evaluation of the airway, ensuring adequate ventilation and the correction of circulatory shock coincide with the diagnoses and treatment of primary and secondary problems. Critical decisions and actions are confounded by the urgency and the variability that characterizes trauma resuscitation. However, even in the best centres, errors continue to contribute to adverse outcomes. 7,8 Errors in trauma resuscitation Not surprisingly, most of the errors that arise during the emergency department/trauma centre phase of care relate to resuscitation. 7 Errors in trauma resuscitation may have little immediate effect but can eventually compromise the final outcome. Failure to intervene and reverse lifethreatening conditions during this phase of care may be the result of inexperience, disorganized activity, an inability to recognize priorities, fixation error and failure to realize the complexity of the problem(s). The coordination of multiple activities may be just as critical for patient survival as making the correct diagnoses or performing the most appropriate procedures. In Australia, the Victorian Consultative Committee 2001/2003 data on road traffic fatalities found that the average number of early management problems contributing to death in fatal trauma cases was at least 50% greater than in other areas of trauma care. 7 Between 2002 and 2003, a mean of 6.09 errors per fatal case were identified in the emergency department management of fatal trauma cases, with 3.47 errors per fatal case judged to have contributed to death. Most of the errors related to resuscitation. Even in established major trauma services, 23% of deaths were considered preventable or potentially preventable. Most preventable errors occurred not because of ignorance or lack of resources but because the correct therapeutic and diagnostic measures were “not done at the right time, in the right amount or in the right order.” 9
