Scientific Backgrounds for the Timing of Acute Care Surgery
2019
The correct timing of urgent surgery in the field of orthopedic and trauma surgery is under constant discussion. The authors of this review like to present a scientific based recommendation for the timing of acute care surgery using the TACS-classification for the description of urgency. The timing and priority of the indicated procedure is deduced only from the expected mortality and disability caused by a potential delay. A proposal for a nomenclature is given to be integrated in the clinical practice and to be completed.
