Serum Mediators and the Generation of Immune Suppression

  • Conference paper
Immune Consequences of Trauma, Shock, and Sepsis

Abstract

Trauma is one of the most serious health care problems in the United States. It is the leading cause of mortality in the 1–40 year age group with more than 50 million injuries per year. In 1982 alone there were over 165 000 trauma deaths resulting in an economic impact of more than $88 billion.
