Our work aims to ensure that every ill and injured child, no matter where they live, attendschool, or travel in CT, receive appropriate emergency medical care. __________________________________________ TRAUMA is the leading case of morbidity and mortality in children. Children have unique injury patterns and substantial differences in their response to trauma when compared with adults; this requires special consideration when addressing the assessment and management of pediatric trauma.
