Trauma Feuerwehr
“Traumatic injury is the leading cause of death worldwide among persons between 5 and 44 years of age and accounts for 10% of all deaths. In 2002, 800,000 injury related deaths in Europe accounted for 8.3% of total deaths. Because trauma afiects a disproportionate number of young people, the burden to society in terms of lost productivity, premature death, and disability is considerable.”
