Trauma Resuscitation Clinical Pathway — Emergency Department
Crowd Control in the Resuscitation Room
Emergency Department Response Team
Crowding interferes with leadership and team behaviors and can affect patient care; thus it is important to limit the number of responders.
- Team 1 and 2 Attendings and frontline ordering clinicians (FLOCs) alternate between resuscitations
- Only members of the assigned team respond
