The ATLS ® (Advanced Trauma Life Support) Course has been developed by the Trauma Committee of the American College of Surgeons with the objective of training the doctor to evaluate and resuscitate the patient with multiple trauma efficiently and quickly during the first hour of his, define whether your resources will be sufficient to manage the patient or it will be necessary to refer him to a higher level of care, and stabilize and refer him correctly. It also teaches the basics of triage in cases of a single traumatized patient and in disasters with multiple injuries.
At Punta Mita Hospital, all of our doctors are certified in ATLS (Advanced Trauma Life Support).
