    AbstractOptimal care of the patient with multiple trauma injuries requires an enormous amount of effort which begins with planning and preparation of system development in which personnel are educated and trained. Guidelines must include all aspects of the patient's care and the team must be drilled well. Protocols for management should be customized to suit the facilities available and the needs of the patient. The Primary Survey provides basic data essential when life is threatened. The Secondary Survey provides detailed assessment of the various organ systems. Inclusion of Psycho-Social aspects achieves a holistic approach to the victims of Trauma.
