About section
Since its inception in 2010, the Advanced Surgical Skills for Exposure in Trauma (ASSET) course has been a valuable resource to support surgical training for the complex operative intervention required for critically injured patients. The ASSET course provides the opportunity to learn the exposure to manage complex sources of life-threatening hemorrhage and reinforces damage control principles. Given the rarity of these injuries, this program is valuable for surgical residents, fellows, and experienced surgeons alike. It has proven especially valuable for military surgeons preparing for deployment.
