    Journal: Emerg Med Clin North Am; 1984 Aug; 2(3):635-47. PubMed ID: 6534744.
    Abstract:
    Wilderness trauma consists of common injuries diagnosed and treated in the least desirable environment. Improvisation is a key factor in wilderness medicine. The article discusses management of fractures; dislocations; and trauma to the head, neck, spine, abdomen, and chest. The physician accompanying an expedition should plan in advance for the management of acute traumatic injuries.
