Abstract

The acute medical care in Germany after gunshot and stab wounds in the pre-hospital and in-hospital setting is a rarity in an international comparison. The resulting lack of routine in the acute care of critically injured people after penetrating trauma should therefore be countered with regular theoretical and practical training. In addition to standardized care algorithms for the care of severely injured people, knowledge of kinetics and wound ballistics is required for focused treatment. The article focuses mainly on the early treatment phase.
