TY - JOUR PY - 1994// TI - Severe occupational traumatic injuries JO - Primary care A1 - Briggs, D. A1 - Kirwin, M. A1 - Morrison, K. M. SP - 349 EP - 366 VL - 21 IS - 2 N2 - Severe occupational traumatic injuries represent a challenge to workers and physicians. Efforts to prevent occupational injuries, such as education, protective equipment, adherence to safety procedures, and personal responsibility, are of critical importance. The physician's role as educator, consultant, and on-site manager of these injuries forms the basis for effective management of severe occupational traumatic injuries. Rapid assessment and treatment by coworkers trained in first aid can be vital in preventing more serious sequelae.
