Perplexing management in neck exsanguination: From resource-limited setting to definitive care

Abstract

Exsanguinating neck injury is a rare presentation to the emergency department. However, when such a scenario occurs, emergency physicians should be able to readily employ the various methods available to control the exsanguination. Furthermore, the application of inotrope or vasopressor in a hypotensive traumatic patient despite aggressive fluid/blood product resuscitation is explored.
