      Sur des problématiques rencontrées par les praticiens dans leur exercice quotidien, la collection « Elsevier Pratique » apporte des réponses cliniques précises, rapidement accessibles. Ces ouvrages sont conçus pour être une aide à la pratique clinique.La traumatologie représente environ 40 % de l’activité des urgences, et pourtant son enseignement est limité pendant la formation initiale, entraînant le risque d’une prise en charge non optimale. L’objectif de cet ouvrage est de donner à tous les médecins urgentistes confirmés ou en formation, des outils validés et récents, fruits de l’expérience des auteurs et fondés sur les preuves, leur permettant de construire un raisonnement clinique en traumatologie « non vitale », pour poser le bon diagnostic et bien orienter les patients.Pour chaque région anatomique, sont présentés les éléments d’anatomie, la démarche diagnostique, les signes de gravité (red flags), l’imagerie et son analyse, la place de l’échographie, les diagnostics lésionnels et les spécificités des traumatismes sportifs.Avec plus de 150 illustrations, ce guide résolument pratique et didactique, aidera tous les praticiens confrontés à un patient présentant une urgence traumatologique à poser le diagnostic, décider de la prise en charge immédiate et orienter le patient en aval de l’urgence.Cet ouvrage est destiné à tous les praticiens travaillant dans les services d’urgence et de soins primaires (médecins urgentistes, internistes, médecins généralistes), mais aussi aux étudiants de ces spécialités ou faisant un stage dans les services d’urgences.POINTS CLÉSUrgences traumatologiquesImag... et diagnostics lésionnelsAspects médico-légauxRaphaël Maurice est médecin urgentiste au centre des urgences Hirslanden de Lausanne, membre du CA du CFMU et d’urgences DPC.
