SURGICAL DAMAGE CONTROL Bradley W. Thomas, MD LCDR MC USN Constanta Trauma Symposium 12 JUNE 2013
OUTLINE 1. Definition/description 2. Who needs it 3. Operative techniques 4. ICU techniques 5. Reoperation techniques 6. Expected outcome
Navy Definition “the capacity of a ship to absorb damage and maintain mission integrity” Naval War Publication 3-20.31, Dept Defense, 1996 (c/o Paul Possenti, PA-C, Bridgeport Hospital)
Initial Damage Control Stages Stage 1: DC1 • Control hemorrhage • Limit peritoneal contamination • Temporary abdominal closure Stage 2: DC2 • Hypothermia prevention/treatment • Correction of coagulopathy • Correction of acidosis Stage 3: DC3 • Definitive surgery • May require multiple surgeries • Creation of ostomies, feeding access, fascial closure • No longer than 72 hours from Stage 1 • Data from Rotondo MF, Schwab CW, McGonigal MD, et al. ‘Damage control’: an approach for improved survival in exsanguinating penetrating abdominal injury. J Trauma 1993;35(3):375.
“Despite the lethality of injuries, if a wounded solider survives the rapid transport to a military medical facility with surgical capability, the likelihood of survival is now higher than any previous recorded conflict.” Eastridge BJ, Jenkins D, Flaherty S, et al. Trauma system development in a theater of war: experiences from Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom. J Trauma 2006;61(6):1366.
WHO NEEDS DAMAGECONTROL?Intraoperative Sequelae of Shock • Initial or persistent hypothermia • Initial or persistent metabolic • Acidosis • Nonmechanical bleeding * * * * * • “metabolic failure”
WHO NEEDS DAMAGE CONTROL? DISTINGUISH BETWEEN GROUPS May Stabilize Temp 35C pH > 7.2 BD > -10 Near-Exsanguinated Temp < 34C pH < 7.1 BD -15 -20 HR/SBP>0.9
