PY - 2022 T2 - Zollinger’s Atlas of Surgical Operations, 11e AB - Acute care surgery is a relatively new surgical specialty that continues to evolve in scope. At this time, it consists of the care of trauma, emergency general surgery, and critically ill surgical patients. A discussion of the evolution of this shift in clinical service is worthwhile not only to capture the historical perspective of these changes but also to shine a spotlight on surgical principles that maximize the success of surgical intervention in acutely ill or injured patients.
