    • Jean Marty
    • French
    Le polytraumatisé est un blessé grave, victime de plusieurs lésions, dont une, au moins, met en jeu le pronostic vital du patient à brève échéance. Le décès survient en effet dans la moitié des cas sur le lieu même de l'accident, et dans les heures et les quelques jours qui suivent la prise en charge pour l'autre moitié. Touchant majoritairement une population jeune, ces polytraumatismes sont par ailleurs à l'origine de nombreuses séquelles fonctionnelles qui détériorent considérablement la qualité de vie des patients. Seules une prise en charge très rapide et multidisciplinaire et une bonne orientation permettront d'améliorer le pronostic. Abordant successivement les grands principes diagnostiques et thérapeutiques en fonction de la localisation des traumatismes, cet ouvrage présente les différents aspects de la prise en charge d'une victime souffrant de polytraumatisme. Son suivi au bloc opératoire, ainsi qu'en postopératoire, et les examens d'imagerie sont particulièrement détaillés, soulignant l'inderdisciplinarit... de la prise en charge de ces patients. C'est pourquoi également l'accueil des polytraumatisés nécessite de plus en plus des structures spécialisées disposant d'un plateau technique très performant et complet, intégrant les équipes médico-chirurgicales...
