Clinical management of severely injured patients is challenging in all phases of treatment during the clinical course. Numerous factors, such as injury severity, injury pattern, patient characteristics and trauma system, affect the decision-making process in our patients. After the successful initial management of an unstable multiply injured patient, secondary definitive surgeries and reconstructions may have a risk for further systemic complications and the deterioration of the patient?s physiology. A ?Safe Definitive Surgery? (SDS) concept considers the dynamics of the clinical course (prehospital, operations, complications, etc.) and the patient?s physiology. Due to the repeated re-evaluation and assessment of the patient?s clinical course, dynamics and adaptation of the treatment strategy, the safe management of polytraumatized patients is possible. Many unanswered questions still exist and need to be addressed in future studies: Which patients profit by the damage control strategy and which do not? When is it best to start with the definitive fixation of fractures in multiply injured patients? How can one improve the quality of life in polytraumatized patients? What are the strategies in elderly severely injured patients? With this Special Issue, we would like to stimulate research in the field of polytrauma in order to shed light on the above-mentioned questions 606 $aMedicine$2bicssc 610 $apelvic ring fracture 610 $aPCCD 610 $aposition 610 $aassociated injuries 610 $ageriatric trauma 610 $ascoring 610 $apolytrauma 610 $aISS 610 $aAIS 610 $ageriatric patients 610 $aorthogeriatric 610 $aE-bike injuries 610 $aoutcome 610 $ainjury pattern comparison 610 $atraumatic injury 610 $areactive oxygen species 610 $aphagocytosis 610 $aCD14 610 $aCD16 610 $aCD62L 610 $afMLP 610 $aPMA 610 $aemergency surgery 610 $atrauma team competence 610 $atrauma system 610 $alife-saving intervention 610 $atrauma 610 $anon-invasive external pelvic stabilizers 610 $ableeding 610 $apelvic fractures 610 $apost mortem analysis 610 $abiomechanical force 610 $apneumatic pelvic sling VBM® 610 $aT-POD® 610 $acloth sling 610 $aSAM Sling® 610 $atrauma victims 610 $aprehospital death 610 $aInjury Severity Score (ISS) 610 $ahemorrhage 610 $ashock 610 $aresuscitation 610 $acoagulopathy 610 $aoxygen transport 610 $aendotheliopathy 610 $amicrocirculation 610 $amacrocirculation 610 $aorthopaedic trauma 610 $anutritional deficiencies 610 $avitamins 610 $alower extremity 610 $awound complications 610 $anutrition wound healing 610 $aplatelets 610 $aimmune system 610 $aposttraumatic organ failure 610 $aposttraumatic lung dysfunction 610 $aposttraumatic hyperinflammation 610 $aI-FABP 610 $abiomarker 610 $aintestinal damage 610 $ahemorrhagic shock 610 $amajor trauma 615 7$aMedicine 700 $aPfeifer$b Roman$4edt$01329051 702 $aPfeifer$b Roman$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910595079503321 996 $aClinical Management and Challenges in Polytrauma$93039272 997 $aUNINA
