In this podcast episode, Dennis talks with Mark, a trauma surgeon, about lower extremity trauma and limb salvage. They discuss the decision-making process for determining if a limb is salvageable or not, the risk vs reward of tourniquet approximation, assessing motor function and arterial supply, the importance of preserving limb length, and the use of traction in pelvic fractures. They also touch on the struggles medics face in making these decisions and the importance of training and experience.Takeaways
