Trauma Systems in Conflict Zones: A Qualitative Study of Field Operational Requirements in Humanitarian Care
Trauma care in modern conflict cannot rely on improvisation or technical skill alone. It must be underpinned by ethical, resilient and locally grounded systems. Our study highlights the operational knowledge of field practitioners, offering a foundation for building trauma care systems that are integrated, resilient, locally anchored, and worthy of the people they aim to serve.
