    AbstractDamage Control is a strategy for the initial treatment phase in severely injured patients. The aim is to avoid time consuming surgical procedures thereby reducing secondary damage and to improve patients' outcome. Once the patient is haemodynamically stabilized on the intensive care unit, definitive therapy - i. e. osteosynthesis, bowel/urinary tract reconstruction etc. - can be performed after a time interval of 5-10 days. Thus Damage Control is a quick and focused but preliminary treatment strategy in the initial emergency phase in critically injured patients.© Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart · New York.
