Evacuation time and tourniquet use in ptsd after combat amputation
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how quickly you were evacuated and whether a tourniquet was used, to understand their link to developing post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) after losing a limb in combat. By participating, you help improve care for future veterans facing similar injuries.
