New Diagnostic and Therapeutic Approaches for the Care of the Severely Injured Patient

Abstract

For this Special Issue, we would like to invite authors to submit clinical studies that focus on new diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for the care of the severely injured patient from the preclinical setting to rehabilitation. This includes but is not limited to studies investigating the relevance of biomarkers (e.g., cytokines, extracellular vesicles) as new diagnostic tools, presenting scoring systems for risk assessment, optimizing diagnostic procedures or introducing innovative treatment options. Furthermore, clinical studies that concentrate on the presentation of new prevention and rehabilitation measures or investigate trauma-related factors affecting long-term outcome are of major interest.
