Abstract

The S3 guideline on the treatment of patients with severe/multiple injuries by the German Association of the Scientific Medical Societies was updated between 2020 and 2022. This article describes the essence of the new chapter "Stop the bleed-prehospital" and the revised chapter "Coagulation management and volume therapy".
