title: The problems of intrahospital transfer of patients with trauma and one solution: the "Trauma Transfer Backpack".
abstract: With long stays for computed tomographic scans and x-ray exams and long trips to ICUs, patients with trauma may need extra fluids, drugs, or equipment outside the emergency department. Putting everything in a backpack saves time, leaves the nurse's hands free, and does not take up room on the stretcher.
