TEDx Talks A Cool Way To Save Dying Trauma Patients | Samuel Tisherman | TEDxUniversityofMarylandBaltimore

Trauma is the leading cause of death between the ages of 1 and 46, and can strike anyone at any time. Trauma surgeon Samuel Tisherman tells how the loss of a 23 year old stabbing victim led him to develop a groundbreaking approach - EPR, or Emergency Preservation and Resuscitation, to treat patients who cannot be helped by traditional means. Tisherman and his colleagues rapidly cool patients' bodies, then fix the bleeding that kills most trauma victims. Later, sometimes hours later, patients are resuscitated. Samuel A. Tisherman is a professor of surgery in the Program in Trauma, University of Maryland School of Medicine. He is the director of the Center for Critical Care and Trauma Education of the R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center and the director of the Surgical Intensive Care Unit and Surgical Intermediate Care Unit of the University of Maryland Medical Center. He completed his undergraduate degree in biology at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and medical school, a general surgery residency, and a surgical critical care fellowship at the University of Pittsburgh. Tisherman’s research has focused on the management of severe hemorrhagic shock and cardiac arrest, with a special interest in therapeutic hypothermia. Along with the late Peter Safar, MD, and Patrick Kochanek, MD, FCCM, he developed Emergency Preservation and Resuscitation (EPR), a novel approach to the management of exsanguinating trauma patients utilizing hypothermia to “buy time” for resuscitative surgery. Tisherman is currently conducting a clinical trial of EPR. Throughout his career, he has been heavily involved in education for students, residents, and critical care fellows. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
