Trauma Guide for EMS & Critical Care Transport

The Code Blue Field Guide: Trauma is a digital clinical reference designed for advanced EMS, flight, ground critical care transport, and nursing clinicians who manage high-acuity trauma patients during interfacility or specialty transport.

This guide is built around the transport decisions that matter most in trauma: hemorrhage control, damage control resuscitation, blood product strategy, secondary brain injury prevention, airway timing, thoracic injury recognition, pelvic stabilization, spinal cord perfusion, burn resuscitation, and clear bedside handoff.

Inside the guide, you’ll find transport-focused chapters on:

• Hemorrhagic shock and damage control resuscitation
• Massive transfusion protocol activation
• Traumatic brain injury
• Thoracic trauma
• Abdominal and pelvic trauma
• Spinal cord injury
• Burn management
• Orthopedic trauma complications
• Compartment syndrome
• Fat embolism syndrome
• Rhabdomyolysis

Each section is organized for clinical action, including red flags, pathophysiology, diagnostic interpretation, treatment priorities, transport monitoring, troubleshooting, and SBAR handoff templates.

This guide is especially useful for clinicians who want a structured reference for trauma transports where time, blood, temperature, calcium, airway control, and destination planning can change outcomes.
