Timing matters. We used trauma video review to benchmark airway, breathing, and circulation interventions, revealing that decision-to-start time drives total intervention time.

Vein graft laterality likely does not impact outcomes of lower extremity revascularization in traumas. Conduit quality and limb-specific operative considerations likely have a larger impact.

No Time to Wait: Predicting Delayed Progression of Intracranial Hemorrhage Following Blunt Trauma.
In 113 trauma pts w/ BCVI, repeat CTA within ~3 days showed low-grade injuries (I-II) often improved, while high-grade (III-IV) mostly persisted. Early reimaging can guide antithrombotic therapy.
In pediatric patients with lower extremity vascular injury and hard signs, CTA did not alter operative management or improve outcomes, supporting prompt surgical intervention base on physical exam.
