Navigating the Complexities of Major Trauma: Understanding Traumatic Brain Injury and providing comprehensive support for all our Polytrauma patients.
As professionals in Medicine, Nursing and Allied Health we are confronted with a wide spectrum of trauma which can be isolated or multi-trauma after a single event. This includes a wide spectrum of injury and disease and the brain is no different and is frequently involved. There is, however a range of disease mechanism leading to brain injury. It can, at one end, be a single significant event or repeated minor injuries or ‘concussions’, each potentially leading to brain dysfunction.
The 2025 Trauma Symposium will explore this spectrum of injury from the significant single event to the multiple concussions and will look at the causes, treatment and options for prevention.
Date: Friday 21 and Saturday 22 November 2025
Venue: Royal Adelaide Hospital
