Techniques for Control of Abdominal Bleeding: Review of the Literature
Journal Title: International Journal Of Medical Science And Clinical Research Studies - Year 2022, Vol 2, Issue 12
Abstract
Abdominal traumatism (AT) produces lesions in the wall or in the content (viscera, mesos, vascular ducts, biliopancreatic, urinary tract). The abdomen can be injured in isolation, although about a third of pediatric polytraumatisms are associated with AT. AT implies a high vital risk due to two circumstances: hemorrhage due to injury to solid organs or blood vessels and peritonitis due to perforation of hollow viscera. The global mortality varies between 5 and 15% and reaches 50% in the lesion of the great vessels. Management of these injuries is key to patient survival.
