Emergency Trauma Care in Bhubaneswar: Your Trusted Lifeline in Critical Moments

Sushruta Hospital delivers rapid, expert trauma care ensuring life-saving intervention during emergencies.

The patient arrived within the golden hour following a high-impact collision. Our trauma team conducted rapid primary survey, identifying life-threatening conditions: open tibia-fibula fractures, pelvic instability, and signs of hemorrhagic shock. Immediate IV access, blood transfusion, and FAST ultrasound ruled out internal bleeding. A multidisciplinary team performed damage control surgery. External fixation stabilized pelvic fractures, while meticulous debridement removed contaminated tissue from open wounds. Definitive fixation using locking plates and intramedullary nailing ensured anatomical alignment. Microsurgical techniques preserved vascular supply to compromised limbs. Post-operative management in our Level 3 ICU included invasive hemodynamic monitoring, targeted temperature management, and advanced ventilator support. Continuous renal replacement therapy managed crush injury complications, while our nutrition team implemented early enteral feeding to support healing. Our physiotherapy team initiated early mobilization on day 3, progressing from passive to active-assisted exercises. Custom orthotics and gait training restored walking ability. Psychological support addressed post-traumatic stress, ensuring holistic recovery over 12 weeks of comprehensive rehabilitation.
