Share
This week on BTK, Dr. Ali Salim, Division Chiefof Trauma, Burns, and Surgical Critical Care at Brigham and Women's hospital and Professor of Surgery at Harvard Medical School, is joined by return guest moderator Dr. Matthew Martin to discuss Dr. Salim's research on racial disparities in organ donation.
In addition, Dr. Salim gives us Tips and Tricks on how he (and his team) manage penetrating abdominal trauma. Specifically, we discuss the situations where management is not so cut and dry (pun intended!). There isn't a better way to discuss this topic than with two experienced trauma surgeons!!
A great listen!
