PY - 2020 T2 - Trauma, 9e AB - KEY POINTSAnesthesia in trauma care is the practice of perioperative resuscitation.Anesthesiologists, surgeons, and emergency medicine and critical care physicians must communicate and collaborate effectively to provide comprehensive continuous trauma care.Anesthesiologists blend clinical pharmacology expertise and advanced physiologic monitoring to optimize resuscitative outcomes in trauma patients.Standard anesthetic objectives of anxiolysis, analgesia, hypnosis/amnesia, and immobility often require creative modification to accommodate trauma physiology.Regional anesthesia techniques should be incorporated earlier in trauma care to facilitate patient comfort, assessment, procedural care, and transport without impairing cognitive function.Multimodal analgesia techniques are proving increasingly valuable in reducing the harmful impacts of opioid use, both in the acute hospitalized trauma patient and in the immediate postdischarge phase.
