Abstract:
:Multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) is a common complication following traumatic surgery. Aggressive volume resuscitation, restoration of perfusion, and preventive interventions may prevent or lessen the severity of MODS. The nurse, as an integral member of the multidisciplinary team, can affect the ultimate outcome of trauma by recognizing persons at risk for developing MODS and intervening in a timely manner.
