The Extrication in Trauma Project

The Extrication in Trauma Project
The Extrication in Trauma Project Webinar
Wednesday 12th October 12:00 – 13:00
Presented by Dr Tim Nutbeam

Approximately 1.3 million people die each year globally as a direct result of motor vehicle collisions (MVCs). Following an MVC some patients will remain trapped in their vehicle; these patients have worse outcomes and may require extrication. Following new evidence, updated multidisciplinary guidance for extrication is needed and Tim is here to present the findings of his latest research.

Speaker Bio

Tim leads on the EXIT (Extrication In Trauma) project which is focused on increasing our understanding of and improving the evidence base for post-collision care. Over the last two years Tim and the EXIT team have focused on identifying and where possible filling knowledge gaps in relation to extrication following a motor collision and working with stakeholders to translate this new evidence into clinical and operational practice.
