PMC2201 Multi-trauma is designed to apply and extend knowledge acquired in relation to anatomy, physiology and pharmacology program content. The capacity to apply this knowledge relative to the presentation of traumatic, environmental and envenomation related injury is an essential aspect of paramedic practice.

PMC2201 Multi Trauma provides students with comprehensive coverage of the epidemiological, pathophysiological, clinical presentation and best practice management of specific traumatic, environmental and envenomation related injuries. Content also addresses multiple casualty incidents (MCIs) and emphasises the importance of critical decision making.

On successful completion of this course students should be able to:

1. Apply anatomical, physiological, pathological and epidemiological knowledge to examine the possible and actual consequence of trauma and environmental emergencies;
2. Examine the significance of mechanisms and patterns of injury and shock;
3. Demonstrate clinical reasoning skills required to manage multi-trauma situations and environmental emergencies;
4. Examine the skills required to manage individuals who experience traumatic and/or environmental conditions in the clinical environment;
5. Apply epidemiological knowledge relating to trauma and environmental conditions and how this information can be used in the development of effective injury prevention programs;
6. Apply evidence-based practice to assess and manage traumatic and environmental emergencies.
