“…For instance, it has been shown to extend to patients with ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA), 9,10 and to emergency general surgery (EGS) cases, 7 but not to emergent colectomies 8 or to non-surgical patients. 11 This variability in the halo effect cannot be easily explained, given differences in the study designs and patient populations, and motivates inquiry based on specific disease processes. In a prior report, we presented a limited case series of non-trauma patients for which the trauma team was activated at our institution, an American College of Surgeons’ Committee on Trauma (ACSCOT) Level 1 verified trauma center, 12 as a result of hemorrhagic shock.…”
