Abstract
Disability from traumatic injury is on the increase worldwide. Dogma rather than scientific evidence has tended to be responsible for determining the treatment of major trauma victims. Evidence is now beginning to emerge, however, questioning the dogma, and suggesting that different treatment options may yield better outcomes. This review examines the recent literature in resuscitation for major trauma.
