Damage Control Resuscitation (DCR): Fighting the Lethal Triad

ntegrated into our trauma response is the protocol of Damage Control Resuscitation, a proactive strategy designed to reverse the "lethal triad" of hypothermia, acidosis, and coagulopathy before they become irreversible.

 

Our medical teams are trained to administer hemostatic resuscitation—using blood products and anti-fibrinolytics early rather than relying on clear fluids—to restore clotting function immediately.

 

This advanced approach ensures that patients sustaining catastrophic haemorrhage are physiologically stabilised rapidly, significantly improving their survival chances during transport or prior to surgical intervention.

Damage Control Surgery (DCS): Surgery for Survival

Within our Role 2 surgical units, we implement Damage Control Surgery—an abbreviated, life-saving surgical strategy reserved for the most critically injured patients.

 

Rather than attempting lengthy, definitive repairs that a physiologically unstable patient cannot withstand, our surgeons focus on the immediate control of haemorrhage and contamination. This "surgery for survival" approach involves rapid stabilisation, temporary packing, and transfer to an intensive care environment for physiological restoration, allowing for definitive repair once the patient is stable.

 

This capability is the gold standard for managing severe industrial trauma in remote settings.

Your workforce is your most valuable asset.

Protecting them requires more than a first aid kit; it requires a specialist who can stand firm and deliver advanced care when the nearest hospital is an ocean away
