The UK's busiest Major Trauma Centre with Karim Ahmed

In this episode I interview Karim Ahmed the clinical lead for the emergency department of the Royal London Hospital (RLH) in Whitechapel. We examine the impact of MTCs across the health economy and why they can add a survival benefit to the patient. We also look at the utility of overlaying fundamental and essential patterns of care to complex scene's and how this deconstructs some extremely challenging pathology. We also examine the social deprivation that tracks trauma & some of the outliers that can present to the RLH.

We also get some pearls of wisdom from Karim in relation to trauma and the wider population of undifferentiated trauma patients that constitute the case load seen on any given day in London.

I hope you enjoy this episode with an insightful friend and colleague.
