This has multiple implications in not only Hospital Wing’s trauma patient populations, but also in several medical patient populations. Coupling blood products with the early identification capabilities of ultrasound will allow its clinicians to perform at the optimal level. Producing the best possible patient outcomes is Hospital Wing’s ultimate goal.
