Development of acute care surgery for optimal treatment of acute abdomen
With a rapidly aging population,the incidence rate of emergency surgical diseases is rising.Currently the incidence and mortality rate of complications in emergency surgery are much higher than those in elective surgery.Emergency surgical diseases have become a global disease burden.China is actively exploring the establishment of critical care center dedicated to acute abdomen,abdominal trauma and postoperative complications.Internationally,some established trauma clinics have already provided acute care surgery(ACS).And ACS has been offered initially by surgical rescue teams in China.To promote the development of ACS on a large scale,starting emergency abdominal,trauma and surgical rescue from the construction of ACS is an efficient step.ACS focusing upon acute abdomen is an emerging discipline of integrating surgery and intensive care unit(ICU)within one ward.ACS can only flourish under the technical and human resource supports of general surgery.Ultimately well-trained specialized surgeons specializing in ACS shall emerge.
