Timely and adequate care for a trauma patient is paramount, which can dramatically impact survival.

Road traffic accident involving two wheelers was the leading cause of injury. Eighty-three percent of the patients were referred from other health centers, of which 49 were referred from district headquarters hospitals. Only three patients out of 14 had been provided with an oropharyngeal airway for whom endotracheal intubation was indicated. Only one among the 41 patients needing Philadelphia collar actually received. Sixteen patients were provided supplemental oxygen out of the 35 for whom it was indicated. Out of 68 patients in whom intravenous cannulation and fluid administration were indicated, only 35 patients had received it. Out of 31 patients with fractures, none were provided immobilization.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The care of the trauma patients with respect to airway, breathing, circulation, and fracture immobilization was found to be grossly inadequate, emphasizing the need of structured and protocol based prehospital trauma care.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/jfmpc.jfmpc_1271_23","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,5]],"date-time":"2024-03-05T11:20:09Z","timestamp":1709637609000},"page":"656-659","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Prehospital care and interfacility transfer of trauma patients before reaching the emergency of a level-1 trauma care center"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Upendra","family":"Hansda","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Trauma and Emergency, AIIMS, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tushar S.","family":"Mishra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgery, AIIMS, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nitish","family":"Topno","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Trauma and Emergency, AIIMS, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sangeeta","family":"Sahoo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Trauma and Emergency, AIIMS, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sreshtaa","family":"Mohan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Trauma and Emergency, AIIMS, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sebastian","family":"Chakola","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Trauma and Emergency, AIIMS, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"R2-20240828","first-page":"190","article-title":"Prevalence, pattern and outcome of trauma patients in north India:A descriptive study","volume":"5","author":"Rajni","year":"2018","journal-title":"Int J Res Rev"},{"key":"R3-20240828","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"606","DOI":"10.1016\/j.injury.2012.01.011","article-title":"Redefining the golden hour for severe head injury in an urban setting:The effect of prehospital arrival times on patient outcomes","volume":"44","author":"Dinh","year":"2013","journal-title":"Injury"},{"key":"R4-20240828","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"195","DOI":"10.4103\/2249-4863.184669","article-title":"Prehospital trauma care in South India:A glance through the last 15 years","volume":"5","author":"Adhikari","year":"2016","journal-title":"J Family Med Prim Care"},{"key":"R5-20240828","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"636","DOI":"10.4103\/1793-5482.238011","article-title":"Prehospital care in traumatic brain injury:Factors affecting patient's outcome","volume":"13","author":"Meena","year":"2018","journal-title":"Asian J Neurosurg"},{"key":"R6-20240828","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"167","DOI":"10.4103\/2229-5151.100915","article-title":"Epidemiology and clinical characteristics of traumatic brain injuries in a rural setting in Maharashtra, India. 2007-2009","volume":"2","author":"Agrawal","year":"2012","journal-title":"Int J Crit Illn Inj Sci"},{"key":"R7-20240828","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"169","DOI":"10.4103\/0022-3859.201417","article-title":"Does prehospital time affect survival of major trauma patients where there is no prehospital care?","volume":"63","author":"Dharap","year":"2017","journal-title":"J Postgrad Med"},{"key":"R8-20240828","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"558","DOI":"10.4103\/2249-4863.197279","article-title":"Profile of trauma patients in the emergency department of a tertiary care hospital in South India","volume":"5","author":"Abhilash","year":"2016","journal-title":"J Family Med Prim Care"},{"key":"R9-20240828","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"286","DOI":"10.1016\/j.injury.2019.11.020","article-title":"A profile of traumatic injury in the prehospital setting in India:A prospective observational study across seven states","volume":"51","author":"Newberry","year":"2020","journal-title":"Injury"},{"key":"R10-20240828","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"164","DOI":"10.4103\/0974-2700.115324","article-title":"Where do I go?
