This issue provides an evidence-based approach to the assessment and management of pediatric patients who present with penetrating injuries to the torso. You will learn: • Principles of ?rearm ballistics and how the type of weapon relates to the gunshot wound it creates • Physiologic and anatomic criteria that indicate a patient will have better survival outcomes if transported via helicopter versus ground transport • Key aspects to consider while performing the primary survey and secondary survey • Which methods for estimating a child’s weight are most accurate • A quick method for estimating the appropriate chest tube size • How tools such as the Injury Severity Score and Pediatric Trauma Score can be used to estimate the severity of injuries and associated morbidity/mortality • Evidence-based recommendations for management of pediatric patients with penetrating trauma, based on the location of the injuries, including: • When a patient with thoracic penetrating trauma should be sent emergently to the operating room • Which laboratory studies are recommended, and which have little clinical utility • Which imaging studies should be performed, and which are less sensitive/speci?c in patients with penetrating trauma • The bene?ts of laparoscopy, and when laparoscopy should be converted to laparotomy Goals:  Upon completion of this activity, you should be able to:  • demonstrate medical decision-making based on the strongest clinical evidence;  • cost-effectively diagnose and treat the most critical presentations; and  • describe the most common medicolegal pitfalls for each topic covered. CME Objectives: Upon completion of this article, you should be able to: • Recognize signs and symptoms corresponding to underlying injuries associated with penetrating trauma • Perform initial stabilizing procedures used for penetrating injuries of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis Create PDF in your applications with the Pdfcrowd HTML to PDF API
