This program provides an overview of modern emergency medical care. It
traces the history of modern emergency medicine to Vietnam, where thousands
of wounded soldiers survived because of fast, effective stabilization and
transportation. The program shows how a modern trauma team, equipped to
handle the most serious life-threatening conditions, brings a gunshot victim
from the street to the operating room in just 12 minutes. In interviews with
a trauma surgeon and an emergency room physician, it describes the
difference between a Level One trauma center and an emergency room. (19
minutes)
