This event reflects the author's involvement in internationally recognized education and training models, as ATLS, ETC, and DSTC, and UEMS Boards of Emergency SurgeryDo different countries need very different things? I don’t think so, for the simple reason that in Europe and about the challenges we face, with regard to trauma and other medical and surgical emergencies, similarities are much greater than differences.• We all agree on the need for a trauma system “to assure that patients (…) seamlessly receive the proper care, in the proper locations, with proper interventions and, if necessary, transfer to a hospital able to provide the best and most appropriate care” (www.aast.org).• We all agree that teamwork is necessary for prehospital care, transportation, emergency room care, intensive care, surgery, and in/post-hospital rehabilitation.• We all agree on the need for trauma registries with, as much as possible, global follow-up of patient's course.• And finally, we all agree that it is necessary to educate, how to prevent and how to treat.This is also apparent from the recommendations of the European Trauma Course Organization (ETCO) about equipment and facilities: complete trauma team, trauma admission bay close to the ambulance entrance, enough space and adequate lighting, the adjacent operating room to allow emergency procedures, standardequipment for the initial management of major trauma, immediate availability of additional equipment as difficult airway equipment, X-ray, ultrasound machine, surgical instruments, readily available bloodproducts and massive transfusion equipment, co-located CT scanner to allow immediately imaging and access to angiography and interventional radiology, 24 hours a day within 30-60 minutes of request.
