PERFORMANCE UNDER PRESSUREANDRESILIENCE: YOU CAN'T QUACK ME I'M A RUBBER DUCK

Civilian and Military trauma is very different. It is difficult to prepare for the type of cases encountered on a 'hot' deployment when you are not sure what other specialists are present, how long evacuation chains are and multiple casualties frequently outnumber available resources.
The pressure is high, so how do we cope?
A series of clinical cases will be presented and strategies will be discussed.
