Abstract:
The unique physiologic and medical consequences of blast injuries are often unrecognized and frequently poorly understood. The medical consequences, including pulmonary, gastrointestinal and auditory injury, have a defined and unique set of physiologic sequelae. Understanding the mechanism of injury, treatment issues and the potential long-term morbidity of primary blast injuries will enhance survival.
