Their deleterious effects on living organisms are embodied by the term blast injury. The incidence of injuries resulting from explosions has increased throughout the twentieth century. This has been caused in part by industrial expansion. More significant has bee...
متن کاملSmall fragment wounds: biophysics, pathophysiology and principles of management.
Military surgical doctrine has traditionally taught that all ballistic wounds should be formally managed by surgical intervention. There is now, however, both experimental and clinical evidence supporting the nonoperative treatment of selected small fragment wounds. Low energy-transfer wounds affecting the soft tissues, without neuro-vascular compromise and with stable fracture patterns, may be...

Blast trauma has produced a wide pattern of combat spinal column injuries not commonly experienced in the civilian community. Unfortunately, explosion-related injuries have also become a widespread reality of civilian life throughout the world, and civilian medical providers who are involved in e...
