Abstract
Pre-hospital care requires a broad skillset. One of the most challenging aspects of pre-hospital care is performing surgical procedures. The indications and evidence for performing pre-hospital surgical airway, thoracostomy, thoracotomy, caesarean section and amputation are discussed. Where evidence for the procedure is lacking from pre-hospital care, evidence from in-hospital experience is sought.
